As a result, developers have added a lot of UX professionals to their teams. The change has forced designers to rethink how they can design at scale without creating an impossible amount of work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>According to Erica Rider, UX lead for developer tools at PayPal, companies used to hire about 10 UX developers to every one designer. The designer would create what a product looked like. Then, developers would turn the designs into functional components. However, when supporting a great number of developers, the PayPal team needed to find the way to scale the design and support a lot of developers with a small design team. The only way was to enable product teams to do design on their own. That\u2019s how now, three designers can work with about 1,000 developers on approximately 100 products.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As companies demand more from their designers, it becomes increasingly important for design teams to find strategies that let them scale design systems with little effort.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Recommended viewing:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/_TZEz1lYpOs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scale design efficiently with DesignOps2.0, featuring Erica Rider<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-integrate-design-and-devops\"><strong>Integrate design and DevOps<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/LXi1bOwW3Vy4jfoki11V5UoOM3NvQXZOHG6f6gT0wE0TO7OX208h_vakUH5XQGKlh2Bepei-XDCworJuvUx-utwwdpMP34c7gF6xnYR5uQQkxvphTJOM_1aKIp5DOyqfDa5-WtB3\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The typical product design process doesn\u2019t scale easily because it relies on several steps, including:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Product managers writing descriptions of their ideas and sending the descriptions to design teams,<\/li>\r\n<li>Designers creating several versions of the ideas before they find a good design that matches the product manager\u2019s concept,<\/li>\r\n<li>Product designers sending their work to developers, who have to translate the designs into features that give the digital product exceptional usability, which isn\u2019t always simple and fast.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Not surprisingly, the process involves a lot of back and forth before the project manager receives a completed prototype that works as intended.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Teams can improve the process by integrating design and DevOps.

Strategic design can include several concepts. Some critical considerations when you need to scale design systems include:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-making-searches-global\"><strong>Making searches global<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When UX designers need to find UI components, typography, icons, and other assets in the design system, they shouldn\u2019t have to wade through multiple search results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Product teams that search for an asset shouldn\u2019t get a dozen results related to a dozen products. They should get the correct result for the query. Multiple results will only create confusion among team members and stakeholders. At the very least, it will slow the DesignOps and DevOps processes. At worst, it will lead to inconsistent UX design that confuses users.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-implementing-guardrails\"><strong>Implementing guardrails<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A small team of designers cannot let developers overstep boundaries. Implement guardrails that prevent developers from making mistakes. Ideally, you will adopt design tools that make it easy for you to make rules and boundaries clear.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reducing-variables\"><strong>Reducing variables<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Reduce variables to simplify the roadmap from design to iteration. The fewer options people need to consider, the easier it becomes for them to work efficiently. Now, you can design at scale without adding more members to your group.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-make-design-system-changes-global-and-automatic\"><strong>Make design system changes global and automatic<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Designers should <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/atlassian-design-system-creating-design-harmony-scale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">revisit their design systems<\/a> at least once every few years. Otherwise, they will spend time supporting products that look outdated.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Changing something in your design system, however, shouldn\u2019t mean that developers need to update every product\u2019s code. It should happen globally and automatically. When you change icons in your design system, the icons should automatically update in your product.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/lsGePXK0mLYO2skQGBTTW5MXXtPW-TX3A6THzy1puzCTNAb_Odwu9NrPXtwisgB1yOWohI4bMhcu-qaqI4MF3LJwyUJ7jfhywF2UCewdNs_wpmm4280jkGH0oO8dxtktPrSxjkOO\" width=\"624\" height=\"251\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If your design tools don\u2019t let you coordinate at this level, you will waste hundreds of hours. No one, including large corporations and small startup operations, can afford that much-wasted effort. It\u2019s best to have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/merge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a single source of truth tool <\/a>that lets the developer change the code of a component to update all the designs with it. Automatically.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-narrow-the-differences-between-prototypes-and-products\"><strong>Narrow the differences between prototypes and products<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">https:\/\/uxpincommunity.cdn.prismic.io\/uxpincommunity%2F469f590d-d37e-4741-ba52-5d81a4693ced_merge_3.mp4<\/div>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In an ideal world, you can\u2019t tell the difference between a prototype and a finished product. How often does that happen, though?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you use UXPin Merge, you can have trouble noticing any differences between your prototypes and products. That\u2019s because you get fully interactive prototypes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/replace-lorem-ipsum-with-real-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">that use real data<\/a> and you build your prototypes with already-interactive components that are in fact, live code. You can interact with the prototype just like your users will interact with your finalized product.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Scaling your design system happens much more rapidly when you can test prototypes instead of products. Explore, experiment, and make mistakes during the prototyping phase. Your efforts will lead to a better product that impresses users. Considering that the Google Play Store offers<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessofapps.com\/data\/app-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> more than 2.5 million apps<\/a> and the App Store has more than 1.8 million apps, you need to make a good first impression for your product to succeed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-adopt-uxpin-merge-so-designers-and-developers-can-collaborate-easily\"><strong>Adopt UXPin Merge so designers and developers can collaborate easily<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Adopting UXPin Merge is one of the most important ways to scale your design system strategically. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/meet-uxpin-merge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UXPin Merge adapts<\/a> to the way that your teams work. Your developers can import React.js component codes, add Material UI Design System to libraries, and create prototypes within a drag-and-drop environment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>UXPin Merge will also turn your designers\u2019 work into HTML and CSS without any coding knowledge or support from DevOps as the components that they use are already coded. Designers can also reuse existing interactive components, stop recreating lines that have already been turned into code, and use real data to test their interaction designs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-DfHsDAlevhdTlcivL9RTWpuM1sxGstEUznZ02GFrfESS2ZW970wCK2s1kf5BrDPJ-NWO_7zZB0Mwd0kIicox1DkzEFw1UHwH__MZvOrRqvLs5TGTFaVZ6vCvSCMVKwz1HoOCu3S\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Discover how much easier designing, developing, and prototyping become when you rely on a code-powered tool with new technology.
