> - Do you think it's too soon during the early days? No, but you can just take one off the shelf and adjust colors / fonts. - How do you manage product consistency without it? You'll need experienced designer that knows how to gradually build it. Otherwise I can't see a way without. - Do frontend engineers complain about not having one? No, because we have one, but they complain when components could be used but something slightly different was designed. A friend runs a consultancy and we recently spoke about it. They build e-commerce type of websites, they start with a simple mockup, once they are ready they build style guide/components. All other pages are just assembled from these components - don't think this works for completely bespoke software, but it demonstrates that in some cases it's integral to the rest of the process.
