01 — Why it exists
Every design system I worked on drifted apart: Figma said one thing, the code said another and the docs said a third.
Kiln keeps all three in sync. Change a token once and it lands in Figma, code and documentation together.
02 — What it does
Tokens in one place
Colours, type and spacing live in one file that designers and engineers both edit.
Two-way sync
Changes flow from Figma to code and back, with a review step in between.
Docs that write themselves
Every component page updates when the component does.
