Precision beats volume

A long feedback thread is not always useful. A short, specific comment attached to the right area is usually better.

Rules for high-quality annotations

  • Anchor feedback to a single UI element.
  • Describe the issue and the intended change.
  • Avoid bundled comments that contain multiple asks.
  • Add priority to help sequencing.

Example format

Use this structure for consistency:

Current state -> Problem -> Proposed change -> Priority

Team alignment

When every stakeholder uses the same format, developers can implement faster and designers can validate changes with less confusion.
