Welcome, developer!

If you had joined as a contributor in person and/or virtually, you will be part of the Project Beagle squad.

1. Review the docs:

Our tech lead, Anh Vuong wrote this Dev Guide for devs contributing to Equity UI. Devs built the component library on the Equity UI Storybook to view what’s been published.

2. Related Reading:

• We recommend learning about how to use Design Tokens here and here.
• Reach out on the Slack channel if you need to meet with a mentor. See #3 How We Work.
• Learn by doing. Although we have mentors joining the project, there’s some skills pre-req for contribution. For example, if you need to learn Figma, do practice before doing any contribution work.

3. How we work:

• Onboard via this Slack link: https://join.slack.com/t/femmecubator/shared_invite/zt-2z78kzy3l-UBXRGh9DpND4fnhUDYTBbQ
• For async task-related communication, use the #os-project-beagle channel for questions
• If a cohort is active, join our bi-weekly sprint calls on Tuesdays at 7:30 PM EST.

1. Main features:

• Dynamic Theming using Figma Variables (a native feature in Figma) for documenting design data or the foundational visual language of the system: color, type, radius, spacing and shadow.
• We started up work on Light and Dark mode for backgrounds using Design Tokens, that was presented by Priyanka Thomas in 2024 Open Sprints event.
