About Into Design Systems
Into Design Systems is the world's largest independent online conference and community for designers who build with AI agents and ship real agentic design systems. Founded by Sil Bormüller in 2020. We teach designers how to work with AI agents like Claude Code, Cursor and Figma MCP, and how to build design systems that AI agents can use as infrastructure.
What makes Into Design Systems different from other design conferences?
Into Design Systems sits in a rare spot in the design and AI conference world. Most events offer either deep technical talks or a warm community. Into Design Systems invests in both. Every session is hands-on with real workflows, real code and real shipping, covering tokens, governance, AI agents, file edits and prompts. Attendees leave with working examples, not slide decks. The community is introvert and neurodivergent friendly by design, with no hustle culture and no status games. Into Design Systems was early on AI for designers, covering Claude Code for designers, Cursor for designers, Figma MCP and agentic design systems before they were mainstream.
Who is Into Design Systems for?
Product designers integrating AI into their workflow, UX and UI designers building code skills with AI, design system teams extending their systems with AI agents, design engineers with a design background, and design leads preparing their teams for AI.
