Note: This session is a learning opportunity, not a critique of Dropbox’s work. We recognize the complexity of implementing a design system across user experiences that span cloud storage, productivity, and collaboration tools. To encourage open learning, we’re intentionally not inviting members of the Dropbox design system or brand teams. This helps create a safe and constructive environment for exploration and peer learning.
