DESCRIPTION

Originally built to meet the needs of Amazon Operations, the Meridian Design System, is now used by hundreds of teams in nearly every corner of Amazon.

Meridian supports 3 frameworks: React Web, iOS, and Android. Our end customers include: truckers navigating route, parents managing content subscriptions, Amazon employees booking meeting rooms, customers picking up packages at kiosks, and even Air Traffic Controllers overseeing a fleet of airplanes.
