Design system rollout
Best for coordinating a bounded Design system rollout project from Audit interface inventory through Migrate target surfaces.
Best for introducing an approved design system to a defined product scope through adoption and migration checkpoints.
Put Audit interface inventory, Build core components, and Migrate target surfaces on one agreed path.
Design system rollout: make the handoff from Audit interface inventory to Migrate target surfaces visible.
The Design system rollout template turns a finite product-design outcome into a visible path through Baseline, Foundation, and Adoption. It gives a multidisciplinary team a shared sequence rather than a collection of disconnected workshops or tickets.
The schedule connects Audit interface inventory, Build core components, and Migrate target surfaces. Milestones such as Rollout scope approved, Pilot adoption verified, and Design system rollout complete make the evidence or approval required for the next handoff easy to find.
After creating the project, replace relative days with real dates, assign accountable owners, and add internal details only where they belong. The public starter deliberately excludes Design tool credentials and Production code access.

How to use this template
Design system rollout: make the handoff from Audit interface inventory to Migrate target surfaces visible.
- 1
Baseline
Start with Audit interface inventory and Set adoption scope so the opening handoff is explicit.
- 2
Foundation
Use Build core components and Document usage patterns to turn progress into a concrete approval.
- 3
Adoption
Finish with Migrate target surfaces and record Design system rollout complete for the next accountable team.
Not included
Planning aid
This public planning aid contains no confidential research, contract, or production material. Add Design tool credentials and Production code access only inside your secured project.
- Design tool credentials
- Production code access
