FAQ
Honest answers.
Can you work alongside our internal design team?
Yes. Most engagements are a small Lateral squad extending an existing design team.
Will you use Storybook? Tailwind? Stitches? Vanilla CSS?
Whatever your team uses. We don’t replatform design systems unless you ask us to.
How do you measure adoption?
Static analysis of your codebase + Figma usage analytics. The metric we care about is "% of product surface using DS components."
