SOLAR is an open-source, planet-first design system built to fight digital bloat. It’s not just about pixel perfection; it’s about performance budgets and carbon footprints. Energy-Aware Components: Lightweight code that minimizes CPU load. Media Diet: Patterns that reduce heavy asset reliance without sacrificing aesthetics. Carbon Budgets: Sustainability baked into the design process, not added as an afterthought. Build better products. Burn less energy.

Hey everyone! 👋 I’m Ravi. After 20+ years in Product Design, I noticed a trend: our digital experiences are getting heavier, slower, and more energy-intensive. We talk a lot about "clean code," but rarely about "green code." I built SOLAR to change that. It’s a design system, but with a different KPI: Sustainability. Instead of just optimizing for development speed, SOLAR optimizes for the planet. It provides design tokens, lightweight components, and a framework for "media diets" that help reduce the carbon footprint of the digital products we build. It’s open source because sustainability is a team sport. I’d love for you to fork it, break it, and help me make the web a little lighter. Let me know what you think! 🌍
