#2Whenever I see corporate-initiated projects like this, I wonder where it will be in 5 years. Open-Source projects that have gained popularity more 'organically' like bootstrap (despite the twitter backing!) seem to be a lot more resilient and more likely to be updated and upgraded as time goes on.
Do you really want your SaaS app to look like it was designed in 2015 forever?

If a person uses "curious"... gay.
I used the word "Abort" and confused people but you have to abort a command.

I am skeptical that this will be kept up to date when a new manager thinks it's "good enough" and takes the wind out of the sails. Or if someone gets laid off that's in charge of the project. If they were to open source this project it would continue to live on even if the original contributors are no longer involved.
Open Source always wins in cases like this.

Probably targeted at plugins/extensions. At least thats the impression that I get by the phrasing they chose.

Though I don't see any restriction on where this can be used, it aims for building Salesforce apps.
> What is the Lightning Design System? It is collection of design patterns, components, and guidelines for creating unified UI in the Salesforce ecosystem.

The Salesforce plugin ecosystem (via AppExhange) is fragmented. Each app developer brings their own set of UI frameworks, resulting in a kludgy mess.
SLDS is a much anticipated and applauded UI standard.
