Built once.
Used
everywhere

With and without
Without
Buttons rebuilt every sprint
Four products, four different blues
Design and code never quite match

One component, reused
One token set across everything
Design and code read from one source

01
Tokens
Colour, type, spacing, radius.
02
Components
Every state drawn, not improvised.
03
Documentation
A component nobody can find is unused.
04
Governance
Rules for when a new component is justified.
