Talks to expect 🎙️

⚡️The Future of Design Systems is automated — Spotify

Juli Sombat, Design Manager, Design Systems, Spotify Tiago Catita, Engineering Manager, Design Systems, Spotify

AI and automation are rapidly transforming the tech industry. Encore, Spotify’s family of design systems, is leveraging this opportunity to rethink how we manage complexity in our systems. We’re building plugins and custom tooling to help us automate repetitive tasks and reduce human error, and we’re using AI to better deliver information. In this talk, learn about Spotify’s design system ecosystem and how the team uses automation to build powerful and scalable digital experiences.

⚡️The Future of Brand Management with Design Tokens

⚡️One love, one heart, one library: Building a multi-brand, multi-platform design from one DS heart

Rob Cleaton -Design Director at Warface, previously Sainsburys

In this presentation I will share the benefits and solutions to allow multiple teams and disciplines to work from a single headless design system across multiple brands and across multiple digital touchpoints, from web to iOS to Android.

⚡️Data-Driven Design System Management

Varya Stepanova — Design System Product Owner

Daniel Miebach — Domain Owner User Experience — Customer Applications, Metro Digital

Daniel and Varya from METRO.digital explore how to manage a design system using real usage data from the products it supports. Using the example of the mature design system, which supports dozens of digital products across different platforms and 22 countries, they will show how automatic analysis the source code of these products can provide valuable insights into the usage of React and Web Components. By using these insights to inform our decision-making and communicate the value of the design system to senior management, it is possible to operate more consciously and confidently make changes that improve the system's effectiveness. This talk will demonstrate how specific KPIs based on usage data can be used to set up certain goals and measure the success of a design system, providing insights that are understandable at the managerial and business levels of the company.
