Abstract

Explore Thunderbird's journey toward a cohesive, scalable, and data-informed open-source design system that unites desktop, Thunderbird for Android, and beyond. Building on the recent Supernova enhancements to the Thunderbird desktop interface and expanding into Android with Material 3 as our base, the need for a unified design approach has never been clearer.

Discover how open-source designers can help shape Thunderbird’s future. We’ll dive into creating a unified design system that’s consistent, collaborative, and open to community input, elevating the user experience across platforms. Whether you're a designer, developer, or curious contributor, see how you can be part of Thunderbird’s evolution.
