Talk: Atomic Design
"We’re not designing pages anymore. We’re designing systems of components." As with most things Stephen Hay says, he's right. Over the last few years, the Web community has been creating robust design systems that encourage consistency, facilitate collaboration and establish future-friendly foundations. This session will discuss the mental shift required to design systematically, and will cover how to go about implementing your very own design system.
