Design Lead
Supernova is a tool that really understands the needs of design systems creators. We’ve had no fun in the past working with other tools’ documentation, but that’s all changed now. It’s easy to use, intuitive, and offers many opportunities to scale in the future. As a single source of truth, it is mind-blowing, efficient, fast, and highly customizable. They also listen to their customers and prioritize their roadmaps to fit their needs which is a great bonus.
We calculate how much money a design system saves your team, by looking at the cost of product development without a design system, as well as the savings from building using Supernova instead of a custom solution.
Unlock the full potential of your design system with Supernova, empowering you to drive innovation, collaboration, and seamless scalability.
