Arctic Mittens highlighting the words ARC as the CMS platform and MIT as the Agile team

How might we leverage our existing toolsets to create a multi brand design system for a new CMS?

About the project

Design systems for a single brand that needs to be accessed on various platforms in the traditional way we think of. In fact the term design system is often used in the wrong context, generally used in place of style guide or UI kit. When it came time to onboard a third brand into ArcXP there was only one option to invest in the development of a custom design system to allow for multi brand component usage.
