🪄 Effortlessly Generate Comprehensive Global Variables in No Time! 🪄

  • Using color generator technique by ColorBox to generate color grades and palettes as variables.

  • Using mathematical ways to generate different scales of numbers for your spacing, sizing, font scale, border radius, and border width variables.

  • Exporting all to a variable collection with hierarchical group of variables, supporting both primitives and component tokens structures.

He/Him

As a freelance Design System Lead and Consultant, I’ve supported companies like adidas, Philips, and Ableton with their Design Systems. I understand the challenges that come with being a team of one or part of a small Design Systems team, I have been there.

That’s why I founded Into Design Systems, to connect with like-minded professionals and learn from experts together. Today, professionals from all over the world come together to learn about Design Systems which makes me so happy!

My goal is to create inclusive, introvert-friendly events where you feel welcome and safe to learn. As a neurodivergent and introverted person myself, I know the struggles that come with conferences and educational settings. That’s why I’ve designed this conference so that everyone can participate in a way that works for them.

I learn best through examples, demos, and hands-on instructions rather than long presentations full of slides. You’ll find many of these practical elements in our conference.
