What does the title #DesignEngineer mean to you?

I'm putting together an article and I'd love to hear what your thoughts are, especially in relation to #DesignSystems. Boost for reach? 💜

I'm curating a Starter Pack for #DesignSystems.

If we're mutuals and you're working on them - lemme know.

If we're mutuals and you know someone that should be on it that I've missed - lemme know.

There's 74 spots left. Let's fill the pack to the brim.

Seeing over and over #DesignSystems teams finally starting to feel good with adoption in design, but dev seriously falling behind. There's all sorts of options to help remedy it, however I can't help but think that hiring a shit hot hybrid designer/developer or "Design Engineer" is the real solution

An updated, tagged collection of 292+ articles on design tokens.

Like a lot of people here I’ve had a sudden influx of new followers, so thought I’d (re)introduce myself.

I’m Amy, I’m an independent #ContentDesign and #DesignSystems consultant. Usually I work with client teams on design system docs, or as a team lead working on strategy and delivery.

Hello 👋

🌶️🌶️ HOT TAKE🌶️🌶️

Your users of #DesignSystems are not the users of your application, they are the beneficiaries.

The devs implementing the system are your users. The worse that UX is, the less likely your design system will successfully be implemented.
