What should you automate in design systems?
Design Systems WTFLive recording of the fortnightly podcast Design Systems WTF (back for season two!), where Luke Murphy and Michelle Chin attempt to combat all the amazing wtf in design systems. In each episode, they answer a single question around design system troubles with a Q&A from the live audience.
Everyone talks about how you should automate as much as possible in design systems… but what can you actually automate? Luke and Michelle go through all the things that they’ve had success automating and things that are better with a human touch. From script-based automation, to tool-based automation, to AI-based automation.
