What Better Design is
Better Design is built for developer-led, AI-first, and code-heavy teams. It connects the coding agent to DESIGN.md, semantic tokens, editable components, UI and UX guidance, and review evidence.
It does not replace human design judgment or full design tools. People still own product, brand, and interaction decisions.
Where Better Design sits
- People define product intent and use full design tools for exploration, prototyping, and collaboration.
- DESIGN.md, tokens, components, and design files record the approved sources.
- Better Design retrieves the relevant context, guides the coding agent, and reviews the generated interface.
- Tests, browser checks, and human review decide whether the UI can ship.
What it governs
- Design-to-code workflows
- Design tokens and theming
- Brownfield interface changes
- Accessibility and consistency review
