Description
🎯 The objective
Isolate the current UI design system from the main app into a library structure. I should be usable with dependency substitution.
🎒 Resources
🦮 Rules of the Road
🟢 In Scope
- Color, typography, and shape foundations
- Creation of a library-shaped Gradle module
- Gradle dependency substitution for local development
- Mechanical moves with minimal API change
🔴 Out of Scope
- Visual redesign
- New Bolt components
- Material 3 removal
🚧 Technical and/or Business Requirements
- No dependencies on app, core or feature modules
- Stable package names suitable for extraction
- App must be able to consume the design system via artifact coordinates
- Gradle dependency substitution must work for local development
- No behavior or visual regressions
