+### Session description
+Calcite Design System provides developers with the tools, assets, and guidance needed to design and build exceptional
+map-focused experiences across a variety of modalities. This session will focus on patterns and best practices for
+designing apps with Calcite. You'll learn how Calcite can jump-start your designs, reduce future maintenance needs, and
+alleviate the challenges of scaling design by leveraging framework-agnostic design tokens and web components. We'll
+cover Calcite’s documentation resources, demonstrate the capability of token-based theming, and explore the amazing
+features and functionality of our newly built Figma UI kit.
