UX
You do not need a 200-component library on day one. You need a small system that keeps hierarchy, spacing, and interaction patterns consistent as the product grows.
Define color, type, spacing, and radius before you invent one-off cards.
A calm typography scale does more for SaaS clarity than decorative components.
If two screens disagree on spacing, users feel the product as “unfinished” even when features work.
Buttons, inputs, forms, tables, navigation, empty states, and feedback patterns cover most early SaaS UI.
Document usage lightly—enough that engineers and designers share the same defaults.
Resist adding variants until a real screen needs them. Premature systems become museums.
SaaS interfaces get dense quickly. Establish rules for hierarchy, focus states, and responsive behavior early.
