The following details Wave’s design system implementation and cross-studio collaboration on component libraries and design principles.
EGG x TDP x WAVE
EGG and TDP jointly ensure design-development coherence across OS tools. Wave’s system integrates both, structured as follows:
EGG provides core design principles, components, and design tokens covering:
