# Designesy — /learn Canonical page: https://www.designesy.org/learn --- ## Design verification Reference articles on the category Designesy operates in. Design verification is the practice of evaluating a live site against a published design system contract. These articles define the practice, distinguish it from adjacent disciplines, and explain why Designesy publishes its own score on the same terms as everyone else’s. Each article is single-purpose, citation-friendly, and written to be read once and referenced often. - [What is design verification? — The automated evaluation of a live site against a published design system contract — distinct from linting, regression, and heuristic review. · Category definition · 6 min](https://www.designesy.org/learn/what-is-design-verification) - [Design verification vs design linting vs visual regression — Three adjacent practices, three different questions. Token drift, baseline diffing, and contract conformance — and where each one fails alone. · Comparison · 5 min](https://www.designesy.org/learn/design-verification-vs-linting-vs-visual-regression) - [Why we built a public design score — A score is a contract you can run. Making it public forces honesty — the same checks that score your site score ours, with the same thresholds. · Position · 4 min](https://www.designesy.org/learn/why-we-built-a-public-design-score) ## What this is A small, slow, reference library — not a blog. Articles are added when the category needs a new anchor, not on a content cadence. Each one cites the contract, the verification kit, or the public score as its primary source.
