Engineering principles at Barte: less control, more direction
How Barte uses explicit engineering principles to scale decisions without scaling control — and how they connect to paved road, tests, and AI.

How we built Lastro, Barte's design system, with an AI-first approach — the decisions, trade-offs and lessons we learned along the way.
AI made generating code cheap. Trusting the changes became the bottleneck — and a solid test suite is what sustains that trust.
Writing every line was what made knowledge stick. How to keep truly understanding the systems we maintain in the age of AI.
How Barte adopted the paved road to cut friction, standardize without locking teams in, and build the foundation that makes AI automation safe.
