About the Event

Join us for an educational and collaborative session where we'll explore the Nord Design System in the context of Nordhealth products. Our goal is to learn together, share insights, and understand how design systems are applied in real-world scenarios. This session provides a unique opportunity to see how experts approach design system inventories, identify opportunities, and discuss actionable strategies to optimize component adoption and consistency.

We want to emphasize that this session is not intended as a critique of Nordhealth’s work. Design system adoption is challenging, with many factors at play—availability of time, shifting priorities, and resource constraints. To keep the conversation open and unbiased, we’re intentionally not inviting members of the Nordhealth design system team. This allows us to focus purely on learning and sharing knowledge, rather than evaluating specific implementation decisions.

Work alongside peers to explore component families, assess adoption trends, and actively engage in a structured, hands-on discussion. Expect a fun and friendly environment with live voting, Q&A, and plenty of opportunities to exchange ideas and insights!

Plus, we'll compile our findings into a shared resource that the broader community can benefit from.

1. Exclusive Access to Expert Insights: Watch design system enthusiasts and practitioners in action as they share methods, tools, and best practices for managing and evaluating design systems.
2. Hands-On Learning Experience: Perform the inventory process with us in real time, exploring component families and assessing design system adoption across Nordhealth products.
3. Interactive Q&A and Idea Exchange: Engage in live voting, ask questions, and share your insights in a structured critique that fosters shared learning and community growth.

Event Objectives

1. Understand the Inventory Process: Learn how experts systematically explore, document, and tag components to uncover patterns and areas for improvement within a design system.
2. Identify Opportunities and Discuss Solutions: Work together to uncover design system opportunities and discuss strategies to optimize consistency and usability.
3. Evaluate Design System Adoption: Assess the adoption of Nord Design System by exploring publicly available implementations from Nordhealth products and gain insights into adoption trends.

What You'll Experience

1. Guided Component Family Exploration: Work with peers to analyze and evaluate specific component families within the Nord Design System, examining their structure, usage, and consistency.
2. Real-Time Inventory with Infa.ai: Engage in a collaborative, hands-on inventory exercise using the Infa.ai extension to document components, spot patterns, and enhance efficiency.
3. Collaborative Discussion with Live Voting: Participate in a structured session where we'll discuss observations, vote on adoption trends, and share valuable insights in a friendly and constructive environment.
