@ -25,10 +25,10 @@ In the coming period, I will investigate what type of smart home users there are
Last year alone, there were over 8,000 GitHub contributors to Home Assistant. That's really fantastic! With a Designer-to-Developer ratio of 1 per 8.000, it’s easy to get lost in the backend of design and forget the users. This can result in inconsistent user interfaces or designs that could be more user-friendly. For now we’re working on three areas.
### UX contributors
We want to make it as easy for designers to contribute as it is for developers. There’s a lot a designer can contribute to. For example, making it easier to work with light groups or getting started with automating your house. If you have a design you really think we should look at? Would you like to help build our own Design System? Do you have experience with user testing? Do you have strategic design ideas? Want to organize an online design workshop? Or just want to meet fellow designers? Meet us at [devs_ux Discord channel](https://discord.gg/BPBc8rZ9) or join us on [GitHub discussions](https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/discussions/10147).

### Tooling
We want it to be easy to start creating and iterating on design mockups for Home Assistant. We want anyone that is interested to be able to jump in. To achieve this we’ve been hard at work at re-creating the components that make up the Home Assistant interface as a [DesignKit for Figma](https://www.figma.com/community/file/967153512097289521/Home-Assistant-DesignKit). This allows anyone to experiment with the Home Assistant interface and quickly try out different concepts. Try it yourself and feel free to share your designs.
### Documentation
With clear guidelines, you can ensure speed and quality. That’s why we’re working on design documentation that will be available soon. Its goal is to help designers and developers make better choices. Got suggestions or want to help with our guidelines? Meet us at [devs_ux Discord channel](https://discord.gg/BPBc8rZ9).
