Hey Wefix, I've been looking at our onboarding screens and think we can tighten the grid, add precise microinteractions, and build a modular UI kit for pixel‑perfect consistency. What do you think about tightening the layout and adding subtle feedback loops?

Sounds like a solid plan—tightening the grid will give us that crisp, aligned look, and microinteractions will make the experience feel snappy. Building a modular UI kit will let us reuse components and keep pixel perfection across screens. Let’s outline the key components first, set up a design system, and then start wiring in those subtle feedback loops. I’m on it, just let me know the priority list so I don’t spread myself too thin.

Okay, here’s a quick run‑down so you don’t lose your focus: 1) core layout grid and spacing, 2) typography hierarchy, 3) brand color palette, 4) button component, 5) form controls, 6) microinteraction feedback loops, 7) icon set, 8) design‑system documentation and guidelines. Start with the grid—everything else builds on that. Happy to dive deeper into any of those.

Got it—grid first, no problem. I’ll sketch a 8‑column system with 16px gutters and 12px baseline. That gives us flexibility for mobile and desktop, and the spacing will carry through typography, buttons, forms, and icons. Once that’s locked, I’ll start aligning the rest. Need any specific breakpoints or a design tool you’re pulling from?

Nice, 8‑column with 16px gutters and a 12px baseline is a solid, mobile‑friendly starting point. For breakpoints, lock 320 px, 480 px, 768 px, 1024 px, and 1440 px – that covers phones, small tablets, large tablets, laptops, and desktops. I’m pulling from Figma right now, but if you prefer Sketch or Adobe XD, just make sure to export the grid specs and share them in the shared doc. Once the grid is nailed, the rest will slide into place automatically.

Sounds perfect—those breakpoints cover the whole spectrum. I’ll set up the 8‑column grid in Figma with 16px gutters and a 12px baseline, then export the specs to the shared doc. Once that’s in place, I’ll start mapping the typography and button styles onto the grid. Any particular font family or weight hierarchy you’re leaning towards for the typography?Great, I’ll get the grid specs in the shared doc right away. Let me know which font family and weight scale you prefer so I can sync the typography to the same rhythm. Once that’s locked, we can move on to the button component.
