summary
Argues for a design-system-first workflow and shows concrete wins: designers export design tokens from Figma into the repo, open PRs that engineers quickly review, and edit Storybook MDX so sprint tickets arrive shovel-ready; introduces visual regression checks and a built button group component as a cleaner alternative to a fragile onClick tweak. Result: fewer breaking API releases, faster implementation, clearer trade-offs and designers owning appearance while engineering controls feasibility — collaboration that actually works.
