The part of design systems nobody talks about enough? Documentation 👈
Not the "nice to have" kind. The kind that decides if your system actually gets used - or gets ignored after 2 weeks.
Here's what usually happens:
You built the components. You thought through the patterns. And two weeks later? Nobody's using it.
So teams go back to what they know: rebuilding, rewriting, repeating the same mistakes 😐
Silk was built on a different assumption. A design system is only as good as its documentation.
That's why documentation isn't an add-on here - it's part of the product:
- clear naming conventions that remove guesswork
- guidelines that actually help teams make decisions
- structure that makes onboarding faster, not harder
- built so designers and developers finally speak the same language
Don't take it from us - trust Piotr Mierzyński, our Senior UI Designer 🔥
🔥 Silk, our free design system, now supports slots - and you should be using them too.
Karina Graj, our Senior Product Designer, recorded a short video showing how it works in practice - including how she reworked the modal component 🙌
Curious how to make your components more flexible and scalable?
Head to @figma , download Silk, and start using slots right away 👇
✅ You can build a great design system - clean components, scalable structure, everything in place.
But the real challenge is helping people actually use it.
Because without context, everyone starts interpreting things their own way.
And that’s when the system slowly begins to drift.
That’s exactly why we started documenting Silk - our design system.
At first, it was supposed to be a short manual…
But the deeper we went, the clearer it became:
The more we share, the better people can adapt and customize it.
So the “short manual” turned into a 50-page guide 📒
This work was led by our Senior Product Designer, Karina Graj, who translated the system into something designers can actually apply in real product work.
This video is a quick scroll through the Silk Manual - so you see what it really takes to make a design system usable.
But of course, you can explore it on your own.

Some partnerships are projects, others are long-term team extensions 🙌
Our collaboration with @deliveryhero started in 2019 - and it’s grown into a true extension model.
🔥 Over the years:
- we had 150+ experts involved
- helped out with backend, frontend, mobile, data, design, QA
- continued the scaling of core commerce apps
Our collaboration wasn’t about “delivering features.”
It’s always been about embedding teams that understand the product, the pace, and the pressure of operating one of the world’s leading local delivery platforms.
When a collaboration lasts this long, it stops being just outsourcing.
It becomes a shared partnership 🤝

Design-to-dev handoffs CAN BE really efficient.
Meet Silk - a versatile design system built for commerce.
✅ Designed to help teams:
- stop rebuilding the same components over and over
- onboard designers and developers faster
- keep brand consistency - even in fast-moving product environments
Less friction.
More speed.
One shared system.
🚨 Fragmented design systems are blocking commerce growth - and AI won’t save you.
AI on top of a messy foundation doesn’t automate.
It guesses.
And guesswork = inconsistency, errors, wasted time 😬
If you want AI to actually support your product teams, your design system must be built for more than visuals.
