When organizing content-heavy webpages, web teams often consider components that condense content, such as Tabs or Accordions. The best choice depends not only on the content itself, but also on how and where users are viewing it — on large or small screens. To help with these questions, Marketing’s Diane Meves led UX/UI designers through user testing to inform BUX guidance and better support web teams.
The BUX team has made an effort to incorporate microinteractions into the BUX design system, to give the design an extra level of polish and more engaging user interaction.
User contribution is at the heart of BUX. As a grassroots initiative, BUX thrives on collaboration from the Ohio State community to build and refine our shared design system. This system isn’t just a collection of components — it’s a living, evolving resource shaped by the people who use it every day. By inviting contributions from across campus, we aim to create a design system that reflects the diversity, creativity and expertise of Buckeyes everywhere.
The Buckeye UX design system is an incredible tool for designers, developers and content editors. It keeps designers from reinventing the wheel every time they design an interface, it increases developer productivity by providing ready-to-use code, and content editors can focus on their content without having to worry about look and feel. But let's say you don’t have BUX in your project yet: how do you get started? In this short post, I’ll walk you through how to do just that.
