User-centered design system resources
summary
Lyft describes concrete resources: a year‑long blog post, sims with Qualtrics for onboarding and hands‑on labs that teach Figma and code, decision trees that cut choice time to one minute, a Figma dark‑mode plugin and Storybook demos, a design linter that flags missing LPL styles with a one‑click fix, playbooks for contributor roles, and support channels that consume a third of time (~160 work hours/week). Each item states what was built, how it’s used, and the measurable payoff.
