Can a Knapsack workspace support multiple design systems?

Yes. Knapsack is an extremely flexible platform, and can be set up in a wide variety of ways to reflect how your team has built (or plans to build) your system and operation. 

An individual Knapsack workspace is analogous to a single development environment, which traditionally consists primarily of code pulled from a single repo, but can also include assets pulled in via "packages" distributed from separate repos ( learn more about node package manager). In much the same way, your team could set up multiple repos to feed (via NPM) to a single workspace, or set up separate workspaces for each, or some combination of the two.

That said, a single Knapsack workspace could be set up to consume and display components and tokens from any variety of external sources, e.g. a Button Pattern Page with a tab each for the coded Button assets from Material, Carbon, Lightning, and any other systems that distribute coded components via mechanisms like npm.
