A design language

material 3 expressive
Toms Expressive Design is my own, general design language. It grew out of the look of Pulse, but on purpose it is no one-to-one copy of the app: it is a set of rules I can carry over to new interfaces.

Out ofone app
Pulse
The health app where the look began
The rules

GNOME
Halo, Harbor, Ledge, Tally, Ember and Torch already wear it
The next app
A second app in the same language is in the works
