# Introduction

Throughout the years at Embrace - The Human Cloud, the Product team has made important design decisions. The goal of this documentation is to refer to these decisions. The documentation is focused on user experience - not on the specifics for the UI, which may alter more quickly over time.

{% hint style="info" %}
This documentation is meant to document **design decisions.** Looking for developer handoff documentation? See Documentation in Figma.
