Why Design Systems?

Design systems ensure consistency, speed up design, and reduce developer guesswork. Every serious project needs one.

Components

Build atomic components first (buttons, inputs), then compose molecules (search bars, cards), and organisms (headers, footers).

Design Tokens

Define colors, spacing, and typography as reusable styles. This makes global changes trivial.
