Jared Ponchot π Front End Design Conference 2019
summary
Argues design systems must start content-first over patterns with an early strawman and workshops to surface real needs; identifies the three villains: inefficiency inconsistency scale and maps solutions to who uses the system β editors, marketers, designers, devs. Recommends embedding the system in the CMS when many content authors exist, or providing Sketch/Figma templates and constraints when designers drive consistency. Advises shipping a rough system, letting teams poke holes, and iterating.
