A design system for a digital wallet that lets people hold and share verifiable credentials — built for the DHS S&T Digital Wallet Challenge.
The Brief
Make verifiable credentials something people can hold and share.
The design puts the credential holder first: credentials organized by domain with clear status, selective disclosure so only the attributes a transaction needs are shared, and a “package” concept for combining credentials into a single, consent-driven submission.
The Work


Built to open standards
Aligned with the U.S. Web Design System (USWDS) and Section 508 accessibility, informed by the W3C Credentials Community Group, and delivered as open-source artifacts (Sketch and Sass) in a public repository.
