summary
Argues that decisions sit with a cross-functional triad — product (problem), design and development (solution) — and shows a triangle model; recommends design for manufacturability by balancing accessibility, internationalization and device differences so custom UI choices don’t explode build time. Advocates communicating early and often, aligning cadence and meeting blocks, using compatible tools (don’t force Photoshop or Git), experimenting with pairing workflows and having developers observe or join user research to cut surprises.
