Atlas Design System

Welcome to the Atlas Design System for OpenStreetMap! This project aims to provide a consistent and scalable foundation for creating user interfaces aligned with OpenStreetMap's visual identity and principles. Here, you'll find Design Tokens, Components, Icons, Resources, and guidelines for usage and contributions.

Design Tokens

Design Tokens are the foundation of our design system. They define colors, typography, spacing, borders, and other visual properties to ensure consistency across all products and platforms.

• Colors: Primary, secondary, and neutral color palettes.
• Typography: Fonts, sizes, and weights.
• Spacing: Margins, paddings, and grids.
• Borders and Shadows: Border styles and shadow effects.

Components and Icons

Our library of components and icons is designed to be modular and reusable, ensuring a cohesive user experience.

• Components: Buttons, forms, cards, modals, navigation, and more.
• Icons: We currently use Material Symbols as our icon library.

Resources

Here, you'll find additional resources to help with the implementation and understanding of the Design System.

• Figma Library: Component and style library in Figma.
• Documentation: Detailed guides on how to use and customize components.
• Usage Examples: Practical implementation examples.
