👉 UPDATE 2022: Many thanks for all the positive feedback ❤️ I’ve updated the article with new resources I’ve gathered over the past two years. This new version is published on my blog at https://matejkaninsky.com/blog/ux-research-design-meta-repository/ Hope it’s even more useful than before! Matej

There are many amazingly useful collections of design and research methods, design systems, design principles,... But when you actually need one, you can never find it (at least, that’s often my case). So here’s my living repository of useful repositories — The Meta Repo.

👉 Do get in touch or leave a comment if you know of a useful collection which is missing. The list is then going to be more useful for everyone 🌎
