Design system is a very powerful buzzword of today’s application development. Each tech company is trying to achieve consistency and simple developer experience by incorporating one of them into all their applications.
Additionally, many of them are open-sourced and publicly available. To illustrate it we can mention IBM’s Carbon, Google’s Material, or Red Hat’s PatternFly. These libraries are customizable and easy to use with many predefined components, so even small projects can use them to make their own development easier, cheaper, and faster without sacrificing a custom identity.
However, choosing the right one is particularly hard when there are so many of them. Because of that, it’s a great idea to start with a simple prototype but doing it shouldn’t take so much time. One tool helping with that is Data Driven Forms (DDF), a React library for rendering and managing forms using a data driven approach. This approach takes JSON data and changes them into fully functional forms. Complex forms can be ‘coded’ in minutes without any actual code knowledge.
