Component Library

A shared set of reusable, pre-built UI components (buttons, forms, modals) with consistent styling, often documented and previewed in a tool like Storybook, so teams don't rebuild the same pieces repeatedly.

Think of it like

Like a hardware store's catalog of standard-sized doors and windows that every contractor on a job pulls from, instead of each one custom-building their own.

Junior or senior?

Junior sounds like

Has only consumed a component library someone else built.

Senior sounds like

Has built components for a shared library and can describe a design decision behind one.

Ask them

“Did you build components for a design system, or mainly consume one another team maintained?”
