So, let me tell you about the Orion design system – it was this cool little side project I was tinkering with in my free time. It was something I opted-in to created, as I had noticed that a lot of our design teams were struggling without it.I t was the backbone for the user-facing dashboard at OVO “My OVO”, but here’s the kicker: nobody could track down the original files because they were owned by some third-party company.
The thing was, whenever we needed to tweak something on “My OVO” or create new functionality, we were supposed to just contact the company and ask for changes. But that rarely happened. Instead, we’d end up stitching together different screenshots, slapping on text and boxes, spending hours just to create a new page.
It was a real hassle. But I figured, hey, why not streamline the whole process? That’s where the components library came in. With that in place, we didn’t have to go through all that rigmarole. It was a game-changer, speeding up our design workflow big time.
