DSM Architecture
In our design process, I made a plan to create a clear structure for our team and anyone else involved in the project. I used the idea of atomic design to decide what basic elements our websites needed and how they could grow over time. This method helped us include new features in our system that we hadn't planned for yet. We also made specific guides for our brand and content to make it easier for other teams to work with us and follow our design rules.
Design System Documentation
We made a visual guide to show our product and engineering team how atomic design works and how we use its smallest parts to build our webpage layouts. As we made progress in developing different UI components, our design team created a step-by-step document for current and future UI designers to use. This document was meant to demonstrate how website designs should be organized and updated as our company built upon its web and product UI components.
