What is Portal?

Supernova Portal is where product teams turn ideas into validated solutions. It’s a collaborative space for prototyping, documenting, and delivering product features, powered by your design system.

Whether you’re a product manager, designer, or engineer, Portal provides everything you need to run a complete solution discovery and delivery process from the first idea to the final handoff.

Ask: where knowledge flows seamlessly

While Create is about building, Ask is about understanding.

Portal’s Ask feature connects you with the full depth of your design system, without having to manually read or search through documentation.

Home / Ask


You can:

  • Ask context-specific questions about your components, tokens, or usage guidelines.
  • Search or browse your design system visually.
  • Learn instantly how specific design elements should be used, themed, or combined based on your documentation.

Ask is ideal for quick answers, onboarding, and everyday discovery of the design system, ensuring everyone uses the exact source of truth.
