1. The source of truth for the UI toolkit components is the Joyent Figma team library.
**Remember:** Some components might have been updated in the Figma library but not yet moved into the codebase.
2. When creating new components, strive to be as modular as possible.
3. New components should have a design spec before they are added to the codebase
**Remember:** Do not add a new component directly to the codebase.
4. Ideally, more than one team member agrees to that the component should be added to the toolkit.
**Remember:** Not everything is a component. If a particular element is not yet proven to be useful in multiple places, it should live in the app where it was created.
5. When a new component is added to the codebase, it should be added with the appropriate level of documentation. At a minimum, documentation should include all React props with their type and description. Ideally, also include usage guidelines and good practices.
6. Variations of the same component should be displayed in different demos in the documentation.
7. New and existing components should be reviewed by the team, ideally on a demo link for easier testing (for example, deployed to https://zeit.co/now). Testing should include code, visual and interaction review.
8. Requests for new components should be submitted in a GitHub issue. Anyone can submit requests for new components.
**Remember:** Both design and engineering work should be outlined in GitHub issues.
9. Changes to, and bugs on, existing components should always be requested via, and outlined in, a GitHub issue.
