Benefits

Removes mechanical production work so more of the timeline goes to problem-solving.
Enforces consistency through components, variables, and tokens rather than manual discipline.
Shortens the distance between an idea and something a stakeholder can react to.

Expected outcomes

Screens, flows, or a component library consistent enough to hand to engineering.
A clickable artefact stakeholders and users can respond to.
