The Aurora design system is a style guide that is specific to our digital collaboration tools and applications, including coding templates and components, as well as design elements, our key principles and communications guidelines. Each piece of the design system has extensive documentation on best practices as well as how and when to use each component or element we’ve provided.
This design system isn’t a direct alternative to WET or the Canada.ca Style Guide, however it follows the key principles and core concepts of these existing style guides. We hope that as this project moves forward we can identify opportunities to work with the developers who worked on WET to improve both systems.
