The Designer Draws a Button 100 Times
The developer writes the component 100 times.
Result: 6 months on a project that could be done in 3.
The solution: Design System.
What It Is
A set of reusable components, rules, and templates.
IKEA doesn't design a table from scratch every time. Template → millions of tables.
Exactly the same in interfaces.
What It Consists Of
Level 1: Colors, fonts, sizes Level 2: Button, Input, Card, Modal Level 3: Login form, product card, navigation Level 4: Homepage, profile, pages
Time Savings

Frog Studios uses a design system on every project. It's our standard.
