GitLab UX Guide
The goal of this guide is to provide standards, principles and in-depth information to design beautiful and effective GitLab features. This will be a living document, and we welcome contributions, feedback and suggestions.
Design
Principles
These guiding principles set a solid foundation for our design system, and should remain relatively stable over multiple releases. They should be referenced as new design patterns are created.
Basics
The basic ingredients of our experience establish our personality and feel. This section includes details about typography, iconography, and color.
Animation

Components
Components are the controls that make up the GitLab experience, including guidance around buttons, links, dropdowns, etc.
Surfaces
The GitLab experience is broken apart into several surfaces. Each of these surfaces is designated for a specific scope or type of content. Examples include the header, global menu, side pane, etc.
Features
The previous building blocks are combined into complete features in the GitLab UX. Examples include our navigation, filters, search results, and empty states.
