View PaperMessage first.
Then pixels.
Then proof.
Most sites lose in the brief, not the build. I lock the message before a single component is drawn.
- 01
Positioning, before pixels
→ One headline direction, signed off before design
- 02
Content as data, not pages
→ A schema your team edits without touching code
- 03
Tokens, CSS-first
→ A themeable system, not a one-off theme
- 04
Components on the right boundaries
→ ≤ 1 day to stand up a new page from the library
- 05
Motion with a decision framework
→ Motion that reads expensive, not decorative
- 06
Performance as a number
→ Green Core Web Vitals at 375 / 768 / 1280 / 1920
- 07
Built to rank and to be cited
→ Schema validated · OG images · answer-ready copy
- 08
Ship, then measure
→ Lane-level conversion that decides what to build next
