# Design System

The Design System is the visual foundation of your Digia application. Before you start building pages or components, it's essential to define your global styles. This ensures consistency across your entire app and makes updates effortless.

## Core Elements

* [**Colors**](/ui-building-blocks/design-system/colors.md): Define your primary, secondary, and accent colors. These tokens are available throughout the builder.
* [**Typography**](/ui-building-blocks/design-system/typography.md): Set up your text styles (Headings, Body, Captions) to maintain readability and visual hierarchy.

## Why Start Here?

Defining your Design System first allows you to:

1. **Build Faster**: No need to manually pick hex codes for every button.
2. **Maintain Consistency**: Change a color in one place, and it updates everywhere.
3. **Stay On-Brand**: Ensure every screen matches your brand guidelines.
