GC Design System Product Team

About

The GC Design system product team began working together in July 2021. The group includes members from the Canadian Digital Service, Digital Transformation Office, Principal Publisher and the Office of the Chief Information Officer. The team is working together to build an updated centralized design system and accompanying elements (guidance, styles, code and components). They are building on the initial work of the Design system working group, consolidating elements of the Canada.ca design system and GC Web (WET), and laying the foundations of a modern, comprehensive design system that can support modern needs of digital teams working in the GC.
