Document your Atomic (foundational) components. Think about creating a template that you can reuse across all component types.
Steps
-
Create the structure of your Components page (categories, sections, folders, pages)
-
Start adding descriptive documentation/placeholder documentation while you populate the system
-
Upload your design files to the design system to start documenting your design components in DSM
What You Should Know
- Creating a page for a component will allow your developers access to a space for adding their code to the design component, even before you upload your files to DSM.
- You have the ability to document both on the category level, sub-page and underneath each component, so think about the best place to add your documentation.
- Get into a habit for ensure that you don't release any component without some sort of minimal value documentation.
