Still fighting AI tools that ignore your design system? You don't have to. zeroheight now feeds your guidelines, components, and patterns straight into @figma.com's agent - so you can build and refine components on the canvas, on system, every time. Learn more: https://hubs.li/Q04rvcWL0

Getting an agent to generate code is easy. Getting it production-ready takes a proper briefing. Ep 3 of License to Build: briefing agents to build production-ready components, from Figma to Claude Code with the zeroheight MCP. 📅 Tue 11th Aug, 4pm GMT 👉 https://hubs.ly/Q04r8Mrg0

Your design system is only as strong as what's actually in production. Connect the zeroheight MCP to your coding agent and it checks your actual code against your design system docs - flagging what's off-system, misusing tokens, and what needs fixing. Learn more here 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04ntNHy0

Most accessibility docs focus on component level: states, contrast, keyboard behaviour. A gap remains: what happens when a team hits a pattern the system didn't anticipate? Read how to close that gap before it becomes accessibility debt 👇 https://hubs.li/Q04qQC5Y0

Presenting Hops & Props London, our newest event to bring the design systems community together.  Expect talks from industry leaders, chats with other design systems folk and drinks in the summer sun.  📆 20th August at 93 Feet East, London ⏰18:00-22:00  Save your spot: https://hubs.li/Q04r9p-F0

Why did we build a new Design System Maturity Model?  Read the blog to learn what we set out to change, how we approached it, and what the results can tell you about your design system. ➡️ https://hubs.li/Q04qvJgL0

How much of your codebase is actually following your design system? The zeroheight MCP gives your coding agent access to your design system docs - so when you ask it to audit, it knows what it's checking against and makes fixes directly within the editor. Find out more 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04ntNpx0

50% of design system teams are dealing with AI-generated UI that looks like the system, but isn't. The shadow AI problem is real. Read The State of AI in Design Systems Report to learn more: https://hubs.li/Q04qjZ6q0

Design system docs break down when every update needs a manual handoff.  In this month's Deep Dive, we're getting practical about markdown syncing - how it works end-to-end, and which parts of your docs are best suited to automation. 📅 Tues 28th July Register your spot 👉https://hubs.li/Q04q4W720

Design systems are supposed to make consistency easier. For most things, they deliver. Mobile accessibility is usually not one of them. This blog digs into the accessibility barriers and what mobile-first accessibility looks like in a design system. Check it out 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04pR--50

ooooo, Design System Maturity Model from zeroheight (https://zeroheight.com/maturity/) measures your design system maturity across 6 dimensions: Foundations, Documentation & Knowledge, Governance & Team, Adoption, Measurement & Impact, and AI Readiness

What if all it took to audit your design system was a prompt, not a whole project? zeroheight's MCP connects your docs to your MCP-enabled tool of choice so AI can read, interrogate, and deliver findings specific enough to act on. Auditing made easy. → https://hubs.li/Q04ntKLY0

Most design systems aren't uniformly mature. They're stronger in some areas than others - that's normal. Our new Design System Maturity Model scores yours across six independent axes, from stage 1 to 4, so you know where you stand and what to focus on next. Take the test: https://hubs.li/Q04pCgcX0

Design system contribution is like a mountain range.  Many ways up, many ways down - and it gets very steep at the top.  Read about Mount Contribution - a framework for more effective design system contributions👇 https://hubs.li/Q04n4Bq80

Your coding agent doesn’t know your design system, so it guesses. Connect zeroheight MCP to tools like Cursor or Claude Code and it stops inventing - pulling your actual components, tokens, and usage rules on every generation. Learn more ➡️ https://hubs.li/Q04npRLd0

Gated access and permissions slow down design system adoption. 🔐 With zeroheight, your design system lives in one place. Now, anyone authorised through your identity provider can access it via MCP, without needing a zeroheight account. Learn more: https://hubs.li/Q04npm5Z0

An AI agent can whip up a POC in minutes. Staying on-system is the hard part. That's where License to Build comes in: our new webinar series exploring real-world use cases for briefing AI agents with your design system context. Join us for episode #1 July 7th, 4pm GMT. 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04nftv_0

The handover between design and development isn't always straightforward - and drift between design output and the end user experience is a real cost. Amy Rogers explores how AI agents could be the answer 👇 https://hubs.li/Q04mCSPN0

Every good agent needs a briefing. Licence to Build is our new webinar series on giving AI agents your design system as context. Dispatch #1: How to brief Claude Code via the zeroheight MCP to scaffold a POC, audit it and ship. 📅 Tue 7 July, 4pm GMT Sign up ➡️ https://hubs.li/Q04nftKC0

Design tokens: the key to scaling your brand across a product team. But how do you go about creating your first design token system?  In this article, Louis walks through best practices for creating, documenting, versioning and syncing your first design token system. 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04mgSM50

Want to know what the #config announcements mean for design systems? We've done a rundown for you: zeroheight.com/blog/what-do...

What do the Config 2026 announcements mean for design systems? - zeroheight

Config 2026 through a design systems lens: what Figma's agents, code layers, generative plugins and Motion actually mean for your workflow, tokens and tooling.

zeroheight.com

Hot off the press from #Config 2026🔥 @zeroheight.com now has a native connector inside the @figma.com Design Agent. Ask it to check components against your guidelines, generate on-brand screens, or get instant answers from your own design system docs, all without leaving the canvas.

Seated and ready to hear what @figma have to announce at Config this year. What are your predictions?

Every design system gets to a stage where things feel like they're breaking. The instinct is to start over - but that usually makes things worse. Renovation > demolition. Read Amy Hupe’s article for more 👉 https://hubs.ly/Q04lR34S0
