- Design systems (like Material Design, and Lightning Design) are all the rage and while most articles talk about what a design system is and best practices for creating them, at DesignerUp we've been framing them as a teaching tool and design tutorial with our product design students to help them better understand, explore and learn the philosophies, best practices and principles of UI design, UX and Product Design.

Absolutely!
Very true...much talk about design systems but not much on exactly how to use and steal from them
Can't believe this channel is free, tremendous work. Learning things as a Product Manager, I hit a goldmine.
Soo happy to hear that!! đPlease do share the videos you find helpful with others! It helps us to keep producing free content like this đđœ
As a developer trying to touch my feet in design, I think trying out a design system is a really cool process for learning, it uses your knowledge about development and forces you to think how would a designer do too, so we can make better choices for architecturing our components for other developers.
Great observation for developers Gustavo. Itâs really it the one place where we can all learn and contribute to the product.
Thanks Elizabeth for this amazing tutorial. Proving yet again that you are always one step ahead of the game.
Haha thanks Damien for your ever encouraging comments đ

I see your content is interesting and demonstrates thoughtful reuse which is like standing on the shoulders of giants rather than stealing. There is no learning or efficient work in just copying someone else's work. Whereas, users can learn and get inspired a lot from your content. Also that is how life works, we live on innovating from the resources we have in our hands and from there we reach new solutions. A lot of technologies wouldn't have become what they are today if the innovators started from scratch. I suggest you re consider using your terms and way of seeing copying other's work. I also suggest reading the following article which I came across recently while researching about this topic "Design Systems" and was able to figure out some things about the topic. I don't mean to be rude, but you can consider me a friend in the same field who loves to help others where he can.
This title is based on the best selling book by Austin Kleon âSteal like an artistâ. It's a good read, you should check it out to understand my framing more clearly. If you watched my video you would see that it's exactly the point I make. We borrow tastefully and with respect. Which is why (steal) is in parenthesis.
@@DesignerUp I watched the video and it was really beneficial for me as it contained useful resources. Personally I wouldn't use this term anyways đ
It's kinda crazy I never realized what you can learn from these things đł Awesome video. Thanks!
Charles Haddock Right?! When I first realized how much you can learn from these it felt almost wrong lol. Still canât believe this is all publicly shared!
Useful :)
Thanks Tulasi!
Thank you for this! :D Awesome! (I'm here from Panda - Chrome extension- Design News feed)
Hey Alexis! Just installed Panda and took it out for a spin. Very nice!! A lovely way to digest the days' design news! Thanks for sharing. (btw, your product trailer is đ„)
Panda is SO good, I used it already for years!

Hey, I just wanted to check briesofty if there is a way for to import a new soft into the program, for example softs or sotNice tutorialng that
This is really helpful, thank you! Who normally manages a design system? I understand that it's supposed to be a collaborative effort, but who should be responsible for overseeing the building and maintenance of a design system. Should it be an Engineer, UX designer or Product Owner?
Every product is different and therefore the team will normally establish a chain of command and process that suits them best. But generally the process looks like this:
1. Establish owner of change request process (ideally one person or small team)
3. Conduct regular audits of the system with everyone involved
4. Owner approves change requests, prioritizes and tracks (using something like JIRA).
5. A review process may occur before changes are made to determine what the change will affect.
6. Design systems team or anyone empowered to make change can then do so.
7. A changelog is kept for everyone to refer to.
Hope that helps!
So are there tools out there that you actually easy set up a design system? I really like the design system of Shopify.
Hi Davy, so what tools you use to setup your design system really depend on your needs. Do you have a large team and need a robust repository with strong collaboration features? Are you just 1 person that can manage it within your design app library? Does your design system need to be hosted publicly or internally? There are lots of questions to answer before you can find the right solution because it's really all about your workflow. Here is a great list of tools that offer both all-in-one solutions and repos that you can string together to create just what you need! - designsystemsrepo.com/tools/
Hope that helps! Good luck!
Charles Causey softS is fun

Yes many of them are available for commerical use and can be adapted or customized. You can also find the fully, editable version of many of these in the Figma community if you are a Figma user. All under Creative Commons License

How can I be your student?
Hi Mizan, if you are interested in taking my self-guided course you can enroll here right now designerup.co/product-design-ui-ux-course. If you are interested in applying for our bootcamp or working with me 1:1 please email me at learn@designerup.co for more information.
So what is the point of being a UI designer if you just mindlessly copy elements from other design systems? I understand the rules and how consistency is important. but if everything is laid out to you on a plate, don't you think that this defeats the purpose of being a Visual UI designer? or is the job evolved to lego / block assembler now?
It's important to understand how a UI designer fits into the overall product design, design system and organization.
While someone else's design system can help you understand the underlying principles of component design and best usability practices, it does not show you how to apply it to your own product, users or team.
The point of being a UI designer (at least in user-centered companies) is to have the ability to create a user interface that helps achieve product market fit and to collaborate better and more efficiently with others or to be a creator, contributor or maintainer of a design system at an organization that has already successfully done this at scale.
The role of a UI designer has certainly evolved, and while some designers might see it as 'building with legos', I believe that with constraint comes great opportunity for creativity and innovation. So in my experience, this is just the tip of what a UI designer can do :)
@@DesignerUp Thank you so much for your reply :) .. you are right indeed ... and i appreciate your time in reading and replying my comment
So how do we steal from them practically *
Download them and use them in your own designs - Hereâs another video on where to find more design system UI kits

That second camera angle seems a bit forced and unnecessary.
to go hahahaha
The only problem I see is that Android UI sucks and Id rather build an IOS app because the clients are richer.
please give us your instagram id for further references,doubts and for clarification..
Thank you so much !!!
