Building a Community-led Design System
The design system at T-ROW Price, called Beacon, was developed with a strong emphasis on community involvement. The name of the system was chosen by the community, and the system itself was driven by community needs. The system started as an InnerSource project to build a UI kit, which later evolved into a design system with the inclusion of design input.
