Let’s take a moment to consider what is important for local development. For me, I want to make sure all my developers are using the same dependencies, and I don't want to worry about what versions they have installed. No more “but it works on my machine” excuses. At the same time, I want to make sure we retain the conveniences of HMR (Hot Module Replacement) so that developers don't need to constantly refresh the application to see their changes reflected. We don’t want to lose fast feedback.

Let’s start by establishing an important fact: no two Design Systems are the same. Organizations seek a Design System because they’re feeling pain when it comes to efficient, consistent, quality customer-centric delivery. They feel it in the trenches day to day and the challenges flow upwards to leadership. Or, you have a company that has decided: ‘we need to change ourselves, we can see what the future is, we're going to be disrupted.’ Every landscape is different.

In a nutshell, a customer-centric approach to design is about realizing that what you're creating is not about what you think it should be. It’s about what somebody else, the customer , needs. It’s also a way to ensure that you’re anticipating customer needs based on an understanding of the user's journey—meet them where they are.

Defining what a Design System is and what it means for an organization can be tricky. In this post, we'll take the conversation of Design Systems past style guides and component libraries and get into breaking down silos between development and design.
