Growing a Design System
The Zendesk design team had a growing library of patterns and as I started to wonder about canonizing those as working bits of code, I knew we could be on to something: a system that could be used by developers to achieve intended designs with pixel perfection. We didn’t arrive here in one go. Growing Garden happened as a series of fits and starts, and I learned a thing or two along the way.
