2. Design System
A Design System encompasses the entire set of UI elements related to a web design project. It also integrates the rules and styles associated with the layout, such as colors, typography, sizes, spacing, etc.
The goal is to centralize and organize all the elements necessary for the project's development within a single file. Therefore, the design system is an essential tool when collaborating with other designers and handing the project over to web developers.
This design system template is organized into 11 types of elements:
- Colors: primary, secondary, HEX codes
- Typography: sizes, font families, spacing
- Iconography: all used icons
- Spacing: spaces used between sections
- Text fields: all fields according to their statuses (to fill, required, validated, etc.)
- Selectors: dropdown lists, toggle, radio buttons, tabs, etc.
- Buttons: all CTAs according to their statuses (active, inactive, hovered, etc.)
- Small elements: all other graphic elements, such as those related to forms, buttons to close a window, etc.
- Large elements: such as tables, CTAs, dropdowns, etc.

4. UX Elements
The UX of a layout is the design stage during which you construct the site's structure. You can define each section of every page on the site, beginning to build your user experience. The elements used during UX differ from those in UI since no design concept is involved. They are simply areas with placeholders for text, images, CTAs, etc.
Here’s a Figma template containing dozens of UI elements that you can reuse for your wireframes.
- Navbars
- Footers
- Headers
- Galleries
