Key takeaways

  1. As for now, the best approach seems to be to build the template with underlying components library, not just a separated component library and that’s it
  2. DA proposed to use a chameleon template instead of the global component library - suggesting that we might reuse developed projects (like Finish) as the foundation for the initial templates, possible to use for AirWick/Harpic development.
  3. We can’t aim to be Everything for Everyone - otherwise it’s not a system
  4. Efficiency of the design system is not only in the creation, but it’s also in the maintenance
  5. We should aim for Unified vision of quality expectations (check RB QA standards) + consistent delivery
  6. The Design System should aim to increase speed to market (ideally by 2x) and reduce costs of delivery (ideally by 50%)
