Design System
A design system is a structured set of reusable design decisions.
It can include colors, typography, spacing, grids, components, states, variants, interaction rules, documentation, and usage guidelines.
Why It Matters
- keeps interfaces consistent
- helps teams scale design
- reduces repeated decisions
- improves developer handoff
- makes product evolution easier

When a project starts from an existing design system, the important point is to use it critically. A design system is a starting point, not a cage.
