Propose a new component

Anyone can propose a new component for the design system.

To be successful, proposals need to show that the component being suggested would be useful and unique.

Follow the 3 steps to propose a component or pattern for the design system.

Check the backlog

Check the backlog to ensure that your suggestion has not already been made.

Then determine:

  • If there is an existing component that will meet your needs
  • If there is existing research or discussion around a similar component

Propose your component

Propose your component along with evidence of the user need it will help solve, as well as any links to examples of it in use, or screenshots.

Review

The Design System team may seek feedback from relevant community members and invite further contribution.

The Design System team will assess your proposal and any feedback received. If successful, your component will be added to the backlog for development.

Community and support

Share ideas, learn from other digital creators and get help proposing a component by contacting [email protected].

We encourage you to ask questions, pose problems/solutions and share your work so we can grow the design system.
