★★★★★I attended Into Design Systems for the first time last year and it genuinely changed the direction of my career. What I learned was immediately practical. How to use AI to streamline design system workflows, how to add context so AI tools actually understand your system, how MCPs work and how they connect design to code in ways I hadn't imagined. The message running through every session was that the line between designer and builder is dissolving, and that's something to embrace.
Elleta McDanielSystems-Led Product & Design Systems Designer · CTRL_ALT_DESIGN ★★★★★As a design systems professional, Into Design Systems AI Conference was exactly the kind of event I didn't know I needed. The speaker lineup was genuinely impressive, with real practitioners from top companies sharing practical, actionable insights on weaving AI into DS workflows. Beautifully run, silky-smooth stream. The IDS team clearly puts their heart into this, and it shows.
Subhankar DasLead Product Designer ★★★★★This is the second conference I have attended with my team at IDnow and this one totally delivered. Many teams are struggling to use AI in their design system workflows and hearing from and interacting with so many super smart people around the world doing exactly that was so inspiring!
Lino WiehenUX Director · IDnow ★★★★★Being part of the Into Design Systems Conference as a speaker was such a special experience. The energy, openness and willingness to learn from each other made it feel less like a conference and more like a community. The Into Design Systems Conference is one of those rare events where you leave with both practical knowledge and genuine inspiration.
Raquel PereiraLead UX Designer · Nokia (Speaker) ★★★★★This is one of the best design conferences I've attended hands down. There was so much information packed in each talk, all based on practical experience in the workplace. I can't wait to take what I learned and apply it at work.
Jonathan De HeusSenior Product Designer ★★★★★I really enjoyed this conference, the talks covered a wide variety of topics and taught me some neat tricks for my own practice.
JSJean-Baptiste SchneiderSenior product designer

Seriously, if you work in design systems, this is the place to be.
Diego CobeloDesign System Lead · ExxonMobil (Speaker) ★★★★★Into Design Systems is such a welcoming, helpful community and also a great conference format. The engagement and interaction are more lively and fun than at many in-person conferences I've attended! It's so valuable to compare ideas and approaches with others, and with all the great speakers and attendees, someone else is guaranteed to have the solution to a problem you've been struggling to crack for months.
Vincent SchlothauerUX Designer · REWE digital ★★★★★As I have been telling EVERYONE I know, the best professional upskilling investment I have done in ages. Informative, insightful and exciting just don't do justice. It's all and still somehow better!
Sam SabourSenior Product Designer ★★★★★Into Design Systems has truly exceeded my expectations with their conference. The level of expertise and knowledge shared by industry leaders is unparalleled. What I love most about them is their commitment to providing high-quality content that is both relevant and practical.
Ketty RojasPrincipal UI/UX Designer · Harman ★★★★★This was my first Into Design Systems in-person meetup and I'm so impressed! I appreciated the blend of heart and soul plus hands-on with a talk on building trust into systems followed by a hands-on workshop. The up-to-the-minute access of this type of design content is unparalleled in the Seattle area! As a remote designer, it was refreshing to talk to my peers in the field about how they are approaching similar challenges to mine. I look forward to the next one. Thank you to the organizers, especially Amy Ogg for her kind assistance throughout!
KKirstenLead Visual Designer · Fireman & Company (Epiq)
★★★★★A nice experience.
So many good and important insights and valuable tools to shape our design system and continue growing the memberspot platform.
We also posted a job at the job board and got some pretty good applicants. Thanks for the nice event!
FelixSenior Product Designer · Memberspot GmbH ★★★★★Just when you think you know a lot about design systems, these folks prove you wrong. I was blown away by the creativity and innovation behind their approach to building design systems.
Jesus Gonzalez TorresDesign System Lead ★★★★★IDS was my first-ever design systems conference — and I’m absolutely thrilled!
It was incredibly inspiring to see how other companies build and evolve their design systems, and to learn how they apply best practices. The talks, especially those focused on architectural thinking, truly deepened my passion for design systems.
The atmosphere was amazing, the event was perfectly organized and stayed on schedule, and the community was so warm and supportive.
I’m just genuinely happy to have been there — and yes, Mr. Biscuit completely stole my heart! 💛
Can’t wait to keep growing in this field. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
Anna ZankevichDesign System Designer · TBank ★★★★★Thank you very much for organising this! Great job. Thanks to all the speakers and attendees for sharing your thoughts, resources, knowledge and all the other cool things. I miss ‘real life’ conference, but this one made me feel like I am attending the conference in the olden days. Thank you, Chapeau bas!
KDKarol DulatProduct Designer
★★★★★Into Design Systems is doing an amazing job building a community around design systems. Their events and conferences provide opportunities to learn directly from industry professionals through insightful talks and hands-on workshops. It’s a fantastic way to stay informed about the latest tools, practices, and trends in the field.
Özgür UysalDesign System Lead · Hygraph GmbH ★★★★★Being able to talk to absolute experts in the design system space was exactly what I needed to get a better idea of how I want to improve the design system activities for our clients. And it was also really fun!
Michael SchultzManaging Director · Inverse Digital Design Studio GmbH ★★★★★As the saying goes, it's where the potatoes are burned. The topics are very up to date and they work with the best of the best in terms of speakers.
Excellent space to validate the decision-making that I currently have in my project within the company and to unravel live riddles that unlock very relevant topics.
And finally, I love the personalization, the 1:1.
Nicolas Diaz FloritDesign System Lead · Liberty Latin America ★★★★★This conference is the goldmine of the cutting-edge knowledge in design systems! I loved all the actionable tips on tokens and organization, deep dives into design system management and adoption.
It's great how all the content is both useful for experts in the field but also accessible enough for beginners to understand.
So if you are just starting out in design systems or already a pro, you can find something for yourself here.
Great professional vibes from the hots too. Unlike some other conferences, all hosts here are active experts that work with design systems daily, so they are very knowledgeable and professional.
This makes the conference feel like a place where everyone is on the same page and you are like a one big team working together, sharing knowledge with each other.
I was nodding along and jotting notes for hours straight!
Gleb SabirzyanovDesigner & Developer ★★★★★Wow, such an amazing experience. Truly valuable sessions with quality speakers. I've learned so much that I can take back and start sharing and applying to my team immediately.
Stephanie Jensen SwiftSenior Product Designer, Design Systems at Adobe ★★★★★Really fantastic conference. A diverse set of topics, from very hands on practical design work through to more operational, process and product topics.
I particularly loved the talk on Token Naming and the exciting things Token Studio have coming up, but all the presentations were interesting, really high quality and very authentic.
The community vibe was also great, everyone was very welcoming and polite, but also fun and really engaged. Felt very much like a big group of friends coming together to share their ideas and love for all things Design Systems. Made some awesome contacts too, so looking forward to keeping those vibes going.
If you do one conference in the year, and Design Systems are your thing or you're just getting started and don't know where to go, make it Into Design Systems, it's worth every cent!
Chris KerrPrincipal Product Designer, Design Systems Lead, Token Architect · Performio ★★★★★Just one huge thank you for this awesome conference. You did a very great job by curating those brilliant speakers! This is the best content that I have seen in the last months. Greetings from Wuppertal, Nadia 😍
Nadia WiegandSenior UX & UI Designer · Studio Wiegand ★★★★★All the talks were full of helpful contents and insights I can apply to work immediately. Loved the visually pleasing slideshows as well. It defiantly helped me to engage more with the talks.
ALAmy LeeUX/UI Design Freelance
★★★★★Amazing lineup of speakers and interesting topics! One of the best outcome of the conference is that I get to meet fellow design systems enthusiasts from around the world and also make friends with them!
Derrick LooProduct Designer at OmniHr ★★★★★I had the opportunity to attend the Into Design Systems conference in Stockholm. It was striking for me how well the speakers have been curated. While design systems managers and operators from companies like Spotify and Volvo shared their experiences on large-scale systems, other speakers shared insights from smaller teams. This should be the way at each tech conference so it's easier to resonate with.
Sil is definitely doing a fantastic job keeping the quality high at the events. Apart from all my learnings, I had a great time during the talks and met new people from the same industry.
Don't miss the Into Design Systems conference/meetup if they are in your town.
Ozan ÖztaskiranSr. Product Designer · Reaktor Studios AB ★★★★★I remember the first time I watched their videos, and they blew my mind with the concept of design tokens and design systems - things I had never heard of before. Since then, Intro Design System has become one of my favorite resources, and I often visit it to learn new things. If you're looking for information about design systems, I highly recommend checking out Intro Design System. Aside from their great content, the community at Intro Design System is also incredibly helpful and friendly.
Vu NguyenDesigner ★★★★★Into Design Systems is the best conference ever. I attended every meetup and conference since the beginning and it is only getting better and better. I recommend it to anyone interested in optimizing design processes and building the design system.
Romina Kavcicthedesignsystem.guide ★★★★★I've always loved the infectious enthusiasm that Sil brings to the community and the variety of events that Into Design Systems puts on. They're engaging, inclusive and help you leave with a fire in your belly for the next one!
Dan DonaldDesign Systems Consultant ★★★★★The 2-day AI Conference was absolutely mind-blowing! The shift is larger than it's ever been. The conference was not only inspirational, seeing the amazing things others have built, but also practical, others showed how I can start doing this too. Design systems ARE NOW the necessary building blocks for AI tools, but in ways we've never before imagined. I highly recommend!
Grant SzalayDesign System Lead · BECU ★★★★★The content was thoughtfully curated, with insights from top-tier industry experts. What I found most valuable was understanding how different teams are strategically applying AI today and how they're integrating it into specific parts of their workflows and processes. I'd highly recommend it to both teams and individual contributors navigating the current AI uncertainty.
Fulvia BuonannoDesign Systems Lead · Fail Fast Studio ★★★★★This was my first Into Design Systems conference and I'm genuinely impressed. The community is warm, welcoming and full of sharp, talented people. The biggest value for me was getting a clear picture of where the industry is right now and how AI is reshaping it, straight from practitioners who are actually doing the work.
Dmitry SergushkinPrincipal Product Designer ★★★★★What an outstanding conference! Exceptional content, delivered by truly inspiring speakers. Two incredibly intense and enriching days, I'll definitely be diving back into my notes more than once! Huge congratulations to the organizers, and I'm already looking forward to the next edition!
Guilherme NegreirosSenior UX Designer · Régie d'assurance maladie du Québec ★★★★★This was a great mix of super practical and the most up to date AI and design systems info you could get, from some of the best people in the field, all crammed into an excellent two-day agenda. I'm already putting a lot of what I learned into work today to modernize our design system and to create an AI native design team . And, I'm able to teach my team with confidence, knowing that this stuff actually works in practice. The materials and recordings are some of the best I've seen. I'll definitely be back next year!
Justin HernandezLead Product Designer · Kiavi ★★★★★My head has been spinning all weekend so much great insights on how to make my design system AI readable, and prepared for just in time UI. The future looks very interesting!!!
JSJens SelinSenior UX/UI designer · SocialTalent
★★★★★I didnt know what to expect from Design Systems Hackathon but i loved every second of it!! I spent 24 hours working with designers all around the world. The outcome was great, there were really amazing ideas and each team worked hard. It gave me lots of motivation to work more and improve myself to be more successfull and helpful to our community🌟
BKBuse Dilara Kilincux/ui designer
★★★★★Learned a lot more about tokens and DS, about the state of the profession around the world, networked a lot, learned about plugin development, building a concept design idea from scratch and pitching.
Altough 24 hours of work might seem crazy, time went by as we deep dived into a little design parenthesis in our routine, meeting amazing professionals each one with different skills and mindset, assembling to create the best solution for our idea in the provided time, learning from each other and the community. Def joining again in the next edition!
FFacundoSr UX/UI Designer
★★★★★This was the best conference I've been to in years, and specifically the best conference for design systems I've ever been to. REAL meat and potatoes from each session. I have a full list of actionable items and real plugins, widgets and resources to explore to help get my company's design system to the next level. Looking forward to the next one!
Tara MacDanielsSenior UX Designer, Design Systems · DHI Group Inc ★★★★★What I love most about Into Design Systems? It's like a global therapy group for system thinkers. Smart talks, brilliant people and finally a place where I don't have to explain what a semantic token is. I've come back three years in a row and already looking forward to the next.
Sheryn HoyerDesign System Architect · JAKALA Germany ★★★★★If I had to pick a single conference to attend as a Design System practitioner, I would pick this one every time. Fantastic speakers, beautiful slides, great networking across the world and very remote friendly. Such a friendly community with wonderfully understanding and responsive hosts.
Amalya HendersonLead UX Designer for Astro Space UX Design System · Rocket Communications ★★★★★It's safe to say that our team and design system would never have come so far without everything we learned from Into Design Systems. In my opinion, it's by far the most important source of information and new ideas in the field and it provides a great way to interact with the community.
Victor NystadLead Analyst Digital Design · Equinor ★★★★★Amazing, inclusive, fun event. Honestly the design industry can be a bit uptight, elitist and disconnected from the real world, but this community is a friendly place filled with regular people. I like that a lot.
SPSimon PhilipsonDesigner
★★★★★I was one of the first to catch the announcement of this jam session and grab a spot, also thanks to having joined last year’s Into Design System Conference. Then, of course, the usual doubt kicked in (hello, lifelong Impostor Syndrome…!): maybe I was taking someone else’s place, someone who knew more and deserved it more.
So I messaged Sil about my doubts and got an amazing reply — honestly worth more than a thousand pep talks!
I’m so grateful now that you convinced me to keep my spot and got the chance to join such a jam session packed with insights and fresh ideas about Vibe Coding!
One again, thank you Sil 🫶🏻
Paola MassignanSenior UI Designer · Mooney ★★★★★This was my first professional conference and it set an extremely high bar. The presenters were incredibly impressive and completely shifted the way that I think about design systems. IDS filled in a ton of knowledge gaps for me around design systems and I feel more equipped than ever to turn messy, unstructured design libraries into scalable systems.
Brett MyersProduct Designer ★★★★★Wow this was jam packed with useful, practical tools as well as theoretical insights and ideas!!! I learned so much and have some new things to try. The presentations were all so beautiful and engaging, and the presenters were all extremely generous with their resources. I feel a lot more comfortable with concepts like theming, the handoff process, and accessibility!!! I loved how much focus there was on accessibility. I'm definitely coming back next year!
Maha AzizProduct Designer · Norooz Clinic Foundation ★★★★★What I love about Into Design Systems is how practical and in-depth the sessions are. It’s rare to find a conference that covers both advanced Figma workflows and real-world system governance with such clarity.
I haven’t applied everything yet, but I left with a much clearer understanding of how to manage theming at scale, streamline variant logic with variable modes, and improve accessibility through better documentation.
The biggest benefit was gaining concrete strategies I can bring back to my team. Into DS stands out for its focus on actionable insights rather than just high-level inspiration.
Laura Gonzalez GimenoUX Designer & Lead DS ★★★★★This conference is sooo good!! The conference-organisation, the miro board..the pacing, the moderators.. .all perfect! benchmark for online-zoom conference! Please continue your great work!
MSMarkus SchmeiduchLead Product Designer (Planet, Google, Startup Co-Founder)
★★★★★It was really nice to hear a talk about Design Systems and the elements that contribute to a good design system. I can take back some information and share with my team, especially about Design Tokens and perhaps how cool Locofy is.
Thank you for arranging dinner as well as we wouldn't have survived the talk if not for the food and drinks.
MMitchellSr UX Engineer · HDB

Edward ChechiqueProduct designer ★★★★★Into Design Systems has become an indispensable resource for anyone passionate about design and innovation. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a budding designer, this conference offers a wealth of knowledge and inspiration that will propel your career to new heights. I can't recommend it highly enough!
Deepak SharmaVP Creative Services · Millipixels Interactive ★★★★★Into Design Systems is not only a great community built on and with systems thinking people, the events are an hub of learning opportunities. The conferences and events always put knowledge sharing at the core, but what makes Into Design Systems different is the focus on the practical knowledge sharing. The live demos, or the detailed case studies, I always feel I learn something new from an Into Design Systems event.
Additionally, I think Into Design Systems stands out as it's focus on remote first makes it so accessible, I also know that with this event I will hear from people across the globe and I'm able to broaden my lens and learning by hearing from individuals who I may not previously have been able to.
And to top it off, it's organised and ran by super passionate and all round lovely people!
Marianne Ashton-BoothHead of Design Systems ★★★★★I was unaware of design systems until I came across one of your videos on YouTube. I found it fascinating to discover so much that I hadn't known before. Subsequently, I started following IDS on Twitter, and since then, I've been engaging with and gaining insights from panelists of IDS conferences across various social media platforms.
Samuel AlexDesign System engineer · Rvysion ★★★★★As a freelance designer working on DS, these events are so inspiring! The speakers are top notch word class. This is the place to learn about future trends as well as super hands-on tips on a broad variety of topics. A big 🫶 to Sil and the team. You make the events so human and accessible for everybody. We're one big family :)
Petra SellFreelance designer for design systems ★★★★★Witnessing the breadth of topics covered and the insights shared by the field's leading figures fills me with admiration. As someone deeply passionate about managing various brands at Livesport, I've discovered a delightful blend of daily updates and profound philosophical insights within this amazing community. It's not just about the basics; it's about exploring the intricacies of design ops in a thoughtful way. The people featured in this community aren't just inspiring; they're like mentors, helping me navigate my creative journey with their knowledge and insights. I'm beyond grateful for following you! 🙌🏻
Petra JavorkovaDesignOps Specialist; Livesport ★★★★★Into Design Systems is one of those rare events that actually changes how you work. I've attended twice now and both times I came away with practical ideas I could bring straight back to my projects. The biggest thing that sets it apart is the community feel. It's inclusive, it's honest and it never feels like people are performing expertise. I always leave feeling like I'm part of something, not just an audience member.
Bruno FerreiraProduct Designer · Tangity NTT DATA ★★★★★This conference was a genuine highlight. The diversity of voices, all grounded in serious hands-on practice, made every session feel credible and relevant. The live examples were especially valuable, showing not just what AI can do for design systems, but also where it falls short. Highly recommend to anyone working at the intersection of AI and design.
Isabella MinzlyLead Designer · HCL Software ★★★★★This was my first Into Design Systems conference and I'm genuinely impressed. The community is warm, welcoming and full of sharp, talented people. The hosts did an excellent job, making it clear that it was a safe and inclusive space for all. It was especially fascinating to learn about Design System maturity in different orgs and how designers are building AI-ready and agentic Design Systems. Hands down the best conference I've ever attended.
Timea KonyaSenior Product Designer ★★★★★Into Design Systems didn't just teach me how to build better systems, it changed how I think about design itself. It reinforced the idea that great design is not just about interfaces, but about creating shared languages that empower teams to move faster and more consistently. I left with ideas I could immediately apply.
Elizabeth ArosteguiSenior UX Designer · Coloripop Studio ★★★★★[me not using AI to write this so you know I'm being authentic].. It was a great conference! It was my first time and didn't know what to expect but it felt like a huge collaboration of designers sharing their knowledge in these unprecedented times of AI use. Learned so much and made me feel more motivated to adopt more AI in my workflow. Thanks to everyone who set this up and the presenters!
JPJennie PiaoProduct Designer · Workjam
★★★★★The vibes were incredible! This hackathon pushed me into a technical deep dive where I honestly learned more in two days than I typically do in two months of fidgeting around. I walked away with hands-on experience in the latest 2026 tech and a much deeper understanding of how to effectively split and merge complex workflows within a high-speed team. Between the expert guidance and the wealth of resources, it completely redefined my perspective on what's possible in design systems.
Konstantinos DimitropoulosProduct designer · Skroutz ★★★★★I had a lot of fun during this Hackathon! I felt very fortunate to have meet a group of like-minded and productive people. In our group alone, we encompass 3 different timezones, and it's crazy now to think that we made it work. The Hackathon is very welcoming, with fun kickoff events in Miro and interesting speaker workshops. Sil is also an amazing host, always active in responding questions/or even help with generate some idea.
KCKelsy ChouProduct Design Student
★★★★★It was such an AWESOME event, I've enjoyed meeting with wonderful people, learning, collaboration with teammates, and also we got to participate in the hackathon with our Idea and build it too. It was an amazing Hackathon, Thanks to the organizers and all the participants
SASayed AbdelaalUX Designer
★★★★★One of the few events where I truly feel I can take amazing things I've learned and actually apply them. To be part of this means to be up to date with the latest hacks and processes one can be in the design system field!
Bruno BachDesign System Manager · The Weather Company ★★★★★Into Design Systems is one of the few conferences that truly understands the intersection of design, tech and real-world implementation. I walked away with actionable insights, inspiring case studies and a clearer vision for how to scale our design system with more consistency and collaboration. The speakers didn't just share theory, they showed how they actually work. It's hands-down the most relevant and useful event I've attended in this space.
Ela HaneyUX Lead · CH Media ★★★★★Into Design Systems has been instrumental in my professional growth. Their annual conference offers an incredible resource for staying on top of the latest trends in design systems. The community they've built is truly inclusive, welcoming and encouraging.

Mario UrbinaDesign System Community Evangelist · BMW Group ★★★★★A massive thank you to the hosts for organising such an introvert friendly and inclusive event. I had a fantastic night joining the Into Design Systems Community event in Stockholm. Can't wait for more.
AWAnne-Marie WayerDesign Systems Community Member · Stockholm
★★★★★I loved attending IDS because I got to connect and learn from amazing people around the world <3
The vibe in the room is always great as well, many laughs and comments were shared. I'm not a design system designer but I enjoyed learning about best practices and how other teams are working now, best practices etc. There was something in all the talks that I could integrate in my day to day work.
I'd like to see more talks for absolute beginners in the future, since a lot of terms/tools weren't explained in detail (it seemed others were already familiar with them in their work as design system designers).
Can't wait to get the recordings and be able to go back to the talks :) thank you for organizing this event!
Jeannette Fuentes RuilobaProduct Designer · Rydoo ★★★★★It's been a challenge to connect with others passionate about building design systems in the design and development world. Often, knowledge in this area feels siloed within organizations. That's why the Into Design Systems conference was such a game-changer!
It was incredible to finally connect with so many like-minded individuals who share this specific interest. The resources and insights shared were exactly what I needed and will be incredibly valuable as I navigate my career journey. This conference has definitely had a significant and positive effect on my path forward.
Abishek SeshadriSenior UI UX Designer · New American Funding ★★★★★Design system conference always inspired and energised as usual to the core. Accessibility topic is the mind-blowing workshop as it has a lot of content and information shared. Still exploring my ways to implement in the projects!
But I will definitely recommend anyone to take this workshop to hook up your brain by heading into these conferences💪

Best workshop I've ever participated in!
Renco TampèreUI Designer · Humix ★★★★★Nathan's workshop was like diving deep into his brain and all of the sudden getting all the knowledge he built over the past 20+ years, re-living his successes and challenges and breaking into his magical toolbox full of tricks, tools and methodologies!
Marcelo PaivaUX + Accessibility ★★★★★Nathan's workshop was incredibly inspiring. Real-life examples, raw theory and awesome workshop-style exercises made this session super enjoyable and engaging.
There was enough space to ask questions and be curious. I love that Into Design Systems Community & Conference, as the organizer of these events, always encourages engagement and speaking up for people that don't always feel comfortable to. It's something I'm personally really appreciative of.
I feel lucky to have been one of the 60 'design system nerds' that attended and thank my workshop teammates for the fun collaboration on the exercises.
Also thanks to Sil Bormüller 👏 and Samantha Gordashko for hosting!
Joshua GrootveldDesigner at Kamer van Koophandel ★★★★★it was really interesting,
There isn't much comprehensive training on setting up and deploying design systems in terms of processes.
I was able to expand my knowledge and we left with lots of ideas for workshops!
STSonya ToperLead Designer · ASI
★★★★★It was an awesome experience. I loved the keynotes, specially the ones with real cases that aim to teach how to solve an specific problem with practical guided examples. Those were the best to level up our design system practices within the company. The quality of the speakers was very high. And the way the IDS team designed the networking interaction at Miro was amazing too. Great experience for an online conference.
André RollaDesign System Manager · Stone ★★★★★I am incredibly impressed with the Intodesignsystems online conference. It is exceptionally well-prepared, with very personable hosts and excellent speakers who have presented the topics extremely well. Both Day 1 and Day 2 have been outstanding so far.

Severine GrafSenior UI Designer ★★★★★Attending IDS Conf has been immensely valuable to us. From validating the approaches we've also embarked on, to giving us insights into strategies we could adopt going forwards, its a perfect mix of technical talks & discussions on process.
Design Systems are hard, and the efforts the IDS community have made in democratising the knowledge around them is inspiring. This conference is one the, if not, THE best I've ever attended. Thank you!
Seán O'GradySenior Software Engineer · Teamwork.com ★★★★★I loved the instance and felt closer to my dream of being a great contributor to the design system culture around the world.
I was pretty curious about how WhatsApp solved the main challenges. And I loved Marianne's framework and the way she adapted it to DS reality.
Lucía ZandanelHead of UX around Finance / Freelancer ★★★★★There are a lot of UX Design communities out there, but focus on Design systems, this is the one. The organisers are constantly improving the content, advertising, logistics of every events in a lot of ways. I can see that design system enthusiasts are gathering stronger to share knowledge and support each others, thanks for that and keep it up :)
DLDorothy LeiUX Designer · Design Systems & Design Ops
★★★★★This conference is BY FAR the best I've ever attended. The line up is full of talented people working in real case design systems. What the speakers bring to the conference goes beyond the boring this-is-why-we-need-a-design-system, they really share valuable insights and showcase details of their topic. It was in this conference that I heard about Token Studio and I'm glad I did because it's really made a positive impact in how I work with design systems. You can expect to really learn from the speakers and feel welcome to express yourself!
Thais SantosSr Designer TomTom ★★★★★The knowledge provided by Into Design Systems helped me get onboarded to Design Systems best practices at light speed! The content, but also the connections I made in the community, helped me grow my freelance business sustainably! Thanks Sil & Team for the effort you put into this. Your work really makes a difference!
Lennart BrandtFreelance Designer & Developer · brandtnew labs ★★★★★Sil & team did a great job organizing an amazing event at our Volvo Cars office in Stockholm. Super lovely people with amazing talks and equally awesome vibes. Hope to do it again <3
Alex HedinDesign Manager @ Volvo Cars ★★★★★I'm a senior product designer with a strong background in design systems. IDS helped me connect with real problems, cases, and stories where design systems improved companies' coherence and efficiency. I believe IDS is a great conference to learn about building strategies and challenges that DS teams face every day and how to approach them to be successful.
