UI 设计
Cassie Groos leads design systems at Unily, where she has spent the past year building one of the more complex multibrand systems you can imagine while the ground moved underneath her.
Ask a room of design systems people what a design system is in 2026 and watch the hands stay down. The definitions everyone agreed on for fifteen years are not being defended by the people who wrote them. The hype says the library is dead. Nobody can point to who is killing it.
This talk is a report from inside the confusion. Three bets made in public, with real stakes, and an honest account of how each one is landing so far. Including one that drifted.
For anyone who builds design systems, consumes one, or is quietly wondering whether the job they were hired for still exists.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Cassie leads design systems at Unily, the employee experience platform.
