The Salesforce Lightning Design System gives designers and developers reusable components and CSS markup to build apps that feel polished and modern. It streamlines the workflow between teams, lets you customize within a standard framework, and keeps the customer experience consistent across products on the Salesforce AppExchange.
Since 2006.
I'm really excited to see design led thinking happening. It's really great to see such a large enterprise company really embracing design and embracing the modern user interface. Salesforce listened to designers and listened to user experience and the functionality of the app. It's modern, it's flexible, and it's really easy to use. They make it really easy to create, create an app that will look good on this new modern platform. But more than that, it's easier to develop these apps. It gives developers and designers guidelines to start, but how you use that is still very customizable for the product. So you can still create very different products while still using this system as your guideline. The Lightning design system is not just design guidelines. You have several standard components that you can use and it also gives you the CSS markup so that it's really easy to implement. The loading spinners, the different transitions, all of those are built in. We get to focus a lot more on the functionality and on what features can we add to this app to really make it a great experience for our customers. Adobe's been the number one customer rated E signature solution in the Salesforce app exchange since 2006. So it's really important for us that our customers get to continue that same great experience. The goal for any of our apps is to make it intuitive, to simplify it in a way where users can get that entire complex workflow without realizing how complex it is. With Lightning Design, we hide all the complexity under the hood so that the end user never has to deal with that. It looks very simple, it's very intuitive. It works just like a consumer app. It looks and feels like it belongs in the new Salesforce Lightning design. I am really excited to see where things are going to go. It's pretty evident that Salesforce has come a very long way. Design is primarily function. You have to have a good functioning app and to be able to see functional apps that now also embrace good visual design. That's ideal.
