Tea and transparency. Managing the design system of Deliveryhero
I have a design system ice breaker questions in my wallet always.

Ready for action.

Hmm.. maybe new year resolutions should start in March after some mvp and beta testing.

Design system people. I have a tricky question.

If centrally dedicated DS team has community component contributions, will it be known as a Hybrid team model.

-1 degree and football time. Now I need that poppy seed cake.

I’m curious about how many design system teams do usability testing and how do they do it?

Need to make 24 Paper bags for advent calendar.

Design systems? What design systems?

Something new my teams ask themselves before we start a sprint.

How many context switches do we have?

As a design system team, you would deal tasks of different context, communications and collaborations in one shot. Too many context switches drains and it’s important to get the right balance.

Need to choose my priorities and define the Q1 OKR and 2025 challenges.

But now I have to make 25 paper bags to be hanged on the advent calendar.

If you don’t want to bloat your design system, request your users to add the DS adoption to their OKRs / project plans / roadmap or any sort of agreement plan.

I wanted to cook a Risotto yesterday. Maybe today is that day

My team did a demo today for a pilot product. They were amazing!

DS managers need to consider their time in hand to fulfil the product manager's responsibilities within a design system.
Some may have only 20% of their time available, allowing them to manage only minimal scope, whereas others can completely own the system with 100% of their time.

Adoption is not a design system metrics.

Who are the design system lovers over here?

And yea.. cooking?
