Tips for Use:

• Single Responsibility: Ensure each component and sub-component focuses on a single purpose or rule. If a component has multiple roles, split it into distinct sub-components.
• Clarity in Objectives: Define clear objectives for every component and sub-component to maintain focus on what needs to be achieved.
• Detailed Functionality and Behavior: Include comprehensive details for each component to avoid ambiguities and ensure developers and designers have a clear guide to follow.
• Consistent Design Standards: Use consistent and detailed design guidelines to ensure a cohesive user experience.
• Precise Timelines: Provide specific and realistic timelines for each component's development to manage expectations and deadlines effectively.

This template helps to keep the PRD structured, with each component having a well-defined single responsibility, making it easier for design and development teams to execute without confusion.
