What you'll learn

Design teams often face challenges with inconsistent user interfaces, duplicated design efforts, and inefficient collaboration. These factors can lead to fragmented user experiences and growing technical debt. In this course, UX Concepts: Design Systems, you’ll learn to create a unified design system that fosters consistency, efficiency, and team cohesion. First, you'll explore how to audit existing designs to identify patterns and inconsistencies. Next, you'll learn how to build a scalable component library with variations and states using Figma. Finally, you'll discover how to define design tokens, document usage guidelines, and implement governance processes to ensure long-term adoption and evolution of a design system. When you're finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge needed to confidently lead the development and maintenance of a robust UX design system across any organization.
