Front-End Development Trends in 2025: What Every Developer Should Know
27 August 2025
Integrating a Design System into a Development Workflow
A design system is only useful when it integrates seamlessly with development workflows.
Steps to integrate:
1. Component Libraries → Build in React, Angular, Vue.
2. Storybook → Document and test components visually.
3. CI/CD Pipelines → Automate testing and publishing updates.
4. Versioning → Semantic versioning for updates.
5. Design-Dev Handoff → Use Figma-to-code integrations.
Example: Airbnb’s design system react-sketchapp enabled designers to build React components directly from Sketch files, bridging the gap between design and dev.
