Styleguide-Driven Development
summary
Styleguide-driven development establishes a shared component library, a root variables folder and live styleguide so design tokens map one-to-one into code (colors, typography using a golden-ratio scale, etc.), with components implemented in frameworks like Angular; a retrofit process audits screens, extracts unique UI elements and reduces redundancy — for one project Lego-like audit goes 174 to 69 unique elements — designers work in a Sketch replica of front-end library, and the approach speeds redesigns and improves consistency.
