How can a small team of designers, developers, and managers remain competitive in an ever-changing digital landscape? Is there a way to shatter the standard web design process and achieve massive efficiencies?

Can a design system be made that allows for true in-browser UX design?

Can space and time be compressed and we simply design a web page in-browser, and launch it or pass it down the assembly line? Can a designer do this alone? Or a developer alone? Or better yet, can a designer and developer collaborate together in real-time? What about a junior team?

The Impossible Wish List

  1. Design more quickly
  2. Lower project costs
  3. Increase overall quality
  4. Improve UI/UX consistency
  5. Reduce project risk
  1. Reduce QA effort
  2. Compress project timelines
  3. Allow flexibility and changes
  4. Manage multiple websites
  5. More easily manage the team

The Solution

A collaborative, fully integrated design system that only requires knowledge of HTML. It takes the average digital professional a few days – or a few weeks – to learn the essentials of an HTML workflow. Anyone can do it with simple tools and software.
