About

Codex is the official design system for Wikimedia that provides a unified toolkit and guidelines for user interface design.

It includes design tokens for consistent styling, a library of UI components built for accessibility and internationalization, a set of icons with language and directionality variants, and supports Vue-based and CSS-only implementations.

Material Design is a design system developed by Google that defines a unified visual and interaction language used across Android, web, and other platforms.

It uses grid-based layouts, consistent color palettes and typography, interactive "elevation" shadows and lighting to convey depth, motion and animation for user feedback and transitions, and a comprehensive set of ready-to-use UI components.
