A design system presents a collection of all UI resources that a design company may have. These include all code snippets and development resources with necessary code, documentation, page screenshots and image examples, design guidelines, relevant tools, documents and articles, style guides, reusable components and philosophies, and all other digital assets useful for the overall web design workflow.
These design systems are then hosted as websites online and can be public and internal, whatever the brand decides.
We can think of a design system as a vast data library that acts as a valuable document with applicable instructions and examples, style guides and coding guidelines, and a part of the UI kit all at the same time.

One of the most significant benefits of design systems is that such collection of resources, elements, and data minimizes communication issues between designers and developers and minimizes the room for potential UX design bugs.
