Component Documentation

Component requirements for design system components.

Documentation for different contexts requires unique solutions.

As with any system, there are multiple levels and layers to documentation.


Product, Engineering, and Marketing teams all have different needs and levels of technical design proficiency, when it comes to reviewing and interacting with system documentation.

component requirements

Component model hero.

Each component within the system was documented using the following format. The hero identifies atomic level, required assets and/or components, and component variants.

In some cases, only specific variants of a component are required in the current component. Details of those requirements are identified when referenced within this documentation.

Component data and styles definitions.

Component documentation is split into segments that follow the Component Model. Base component data and styles need to be built before variants.

The hero serves as an overview of what is included in the page.

All elements included in the component, and are referenced within the subsequent areas documented here.

Base component model definition

The base component level includes props that apply to every variant within the component.

Component model referencing all possible props

Props and values are defined in keys and values. This diagram shows the separation of those props.

This section is repeated for each component variant. Design tokens or style variables are used to define style values.
