Why Trimble opted for an open-source style guide on Netlify
Trimble, a global technology company, opted to build its Trimble Modus Design System as an open-source project on Netlify to streamline collaboration and enhance visibility for both internal and external contributors. The design system includes iconography, accessibility guidelines, and content creation information. Leveraging the collective knowledge of all their design and development teams, Trimble collaborates with 49 total contributors. Deploy previews in Netlify allow for seamless collaboration between contributors and maintainers. With an open-source approach, local people can contribute to the site in local languages, addressing local challenges.
