Thoughts on the importance of collaboration between designers and developers

A modern design system will only succeed when it’s co-owned by designers and developers. A shared design language and coded set of reusable components is not enough to support the needs of growing companies. Gaining adoption at scale and creating processes that keep your design system evergreen is where the real work comes in.

Mariah and Julie will share their experience working on the HubSpot Canvas design system. They’ll share their thoughts on the importance of collaboration between designers and developers. They’ll also share some of the strategies and tools they used to gain widespread adoption across hundreds of designers and developers in two countries.
