Speed, consistency, and beautiful user experiences, across every design

The Design System is a growing library of reusable components, clear standards, and thoughtful guidelines that help our teams create consistent, high-quality experiences across every Hubtel product. From typography to tokens, buttons to behaviors, Butterfly keeps designers, engineers, and stakeholders aligned and moving fast.

Scale with Quality

Butterfly provides a shared structure and language that keeps everything aligned and consistent, as more people work on different parts of a product.

Prototype Faster

Butterfly speeds up workflow by making it easy to piece together screens and flows using ready-made building blocks.

Manage Debt

Reduce design and technical debt by promoting reusable, consistent styles and conventions, keeping development lean and agile.

Design Consistently

Consistent components make our interfaces easier to understand and use, while giving designers more time to create beautiful experiences.

Iterate Quickly

With a system in place, updates and changes can be made faster and with less effort, saving time and reducing errors.
