Contribution

Our design system is a library of content, design guides, code, and tools to help you make Atlassian experiences.

A design system is never complete. It depends on contributions from Atlassian teams. Read this page to learn how you can contribute — we’d love your help!

Contributions are only open to Atlassians

At the moment, we're only accepting contributions from internal Atlassians.

If you're an external maker and have some feedback, let us know in the feedback collector on site pages, and we'll take it on board.

How to get involved

You can get involved in two ways:

Get in touch

Get in touch with us. Give us feedback or get help making the design system better:

• Ask a question in our slack channel (Atlassians only).
• Get more robust feedback from a systems lens by attending our fortnightly Design System critique sessions (Atlassians only).

Contribution

It is currently difficult to contribute to the design system — we're working on improving this.

We are currently accepting contributions through:

• Fixes, such as a bugs in the code, erroneous Figma library components, or confusing documentation sentence changes.
• Small enhancements, such as adding a new icon to the existing icon library. This change doesn’t break existing behavior and can be confined to minimize impact across the design system.

At this time, we may be unable to take larger contributions, such as:

• Major enhancements, such as adding a new feature to a component, or altering the timeout on a Flag requires system-wide coordination. This impact can be seen across code, design, and guidelines.
• New components or patterns, such as data visualization.

If you need to add something or believe something is missing, reach out through our channels so that we can understand your case.
