Design and prototype with awareness of implementation frameworks such as React or Vue component models and utility-first styling approaches like Tailwind CSS. Leverage AI-assisted design and development tools to accelerate exploration, prototyping, and iteration, with the ability to adapt quickly as tooling evolves.
