About the Meetup

Hi UX designers in Hyderabad! Let's meet to share our thoughts and experiences in designing great UX, and network with one another.

A Design System is a collection of shared patterns and practices that allow teams to build quality user interfaces consistently and quickly. Patterns are the repeating, reusable parts of the interface, such as buttons, colours, icons. A bit like LEGO bricks. Practices are how we create, organize and share those patterns.

While the core UX practices are concerned about leveraging user centered design approaches to design exceptional user experiences for the end users, a Design System focuses on how those experiences can be delivered in an efficient, consistent, and effective manner over and over again.

Design Systems can cover a variety of areas depending on the size of the teams and their unique needs. A well structured design system not only addresses the problems centred around cross-functional collaboration and hand offs, it also provides a beacon of understanding in the form of guidelines and standards, that help the teams take informed design decisions

In this talk we’ll explore how the team at Hexagon PPM built their own design system in order to meet their own needs and hopefully learn some ideas on why and how you might need to create your own.

Meet people who love design as much as you do. Together we learn new skills, grow our networks, and discover new job opportunities.

Questions? We've Got Answers

An IxDF Local Group connects you with people in your city who are building and applying design skills in their work. Together, you'll strengthen your craft, expand your network, and put theory into practice.

IxDF Local Groups meet regularly in person at cafés, company offices, or creative spaces to share ideas, give feedback, run workshops, and learn from each other. Many groups also organize IxDF Design Dinners, where the conversation goes deeper over a meal. These aren't just social events. Members find collaborators, clients, job leads, and future teammates through them.

You'll also have access to a private online forum where you can get career advice, honest feedback, and support from people who understand the work.

You don't need to have a "designer" title to join. If you care about how design shapes products, careers, and organizations, you belong here.

Join and you'll discover new skills, explore job opportunities, and build relationships with people who understand the power of great design.

Your IxDF Local Leader organizes meetups based on what members want most. Sessions range from hands-on and structured to relaxed and informal.

Some examples of what you'll find:

Presentations from local designers, followed by Q&A
Lightning talks where members share lessons learned from real projects
Workshops where you work through a real design challenge together
Portfolio reviews where you get honest, practical feedback
Coffee meetups and design dinners with open conversations about where the industry is heading

Any member can propose, organize and post a meetup. You don't have to wait for your Local Leader to take the initiative.

What stays consistent is the people. You'll find designers and professionals who ask good questions, share what they know, and show up for each other between meetups too.

Yes, absolutely!

Design skills make you more effective in any role. Product managers, developers, marketers, researchers, and founders all work better when they understand how to think like a designer.

IxDF Local Groups reflect that. Members come from all kinds of professional backgrounds, not just design. What they share is an interest in how design shapes products, decisions, and careers.

You'll fit right in regardless of your background.
