Great quote: “Being able to iterate quickly changes how teams engage with documentation. Instead of treating it as a chore, they see it as a living part of their workflow.” - Ryan Tinsley

Thanks for including our eBay DS playbook!
Posted a little design systems advent calendar post, chock full of all the resources that I find most helpful in design systems.

It covers off everything from adoption to measurement to where to get resources.

It also has a cheeky little snow web component courtesy of @zachleat.com 😅☃️
