Introduction

I joined Drum Technologies, Inc. to work on its Scout product in June 2020. Scout was still in its early stages and there was no design system, or even a pattern library yet. Upon joining, I quickly realized that to design agilely and scale it for the future, a design system was needed. I was placed in charge of creating and documenting the system, and the first case study below outlines how I went about organizing Scout's design system and its impact on Scout's UX and product.

Four months into my time working on Scout, I finally got the chance to step back and review the information architecture of the app. The second case study below outlines how I went about re-designing the onboarding, navigation, and information architecture of Scout to ease the initial learning curve and orient users to different features of the app.
