Meet Cloudscape

Cloudscape is an open source design system to create web applications. It was built for and is used by Amazon Web Services (AWS) products and services. We created it in 2016 to improve the user experience across web applications owned by AWS services, and also to help teams implement those applications faster. Since then, we have continued enhancing the system based on customer feedback and research. Learn more about the system.

Get familiar with the system

Each component has a playground where designers and developers can see how the component behaves, along with sample code. To save you time and effort when building, we offer extensive guidance on accessibility options and design solutions. Head over to our demos for examples of Cloudscape in action.
