Design systems are becoming more and more common practice these days. The larger your application gets, the bigger your need to add your own.

Luckily, due to the way Flutter is built, it is exceptionally well suited to build and maintain design systems, complex token libraries and abstract their complexity away.
But how do you make these multi-brand? How do you scale things? How do you avoid common pitfalls and keep things maintainable?

In this talk we will explore the setup of a large multi-brand design system. Some of the problems we solved, and how we pushed our implementation time to the lowest time possible by adding automated Figma sync, contract validation and code generation into the mix.
