Echo

A design system handed over as a working site rather than a document, so the rules could be argued with in the browser.

Handed over as a working site

Echo needed a design system its engineers would actually use, so we stopped writing documentation and built the thing instead: a live site where every rule can be inspected, argued with, and copied out.

Two years on it is still in use and has been extended twice without us, which is the only real test of a system.

Scope

Design system, component library, documentation site, and two handover workshops.
