🎨 Design & User interface

• The Open Prices server is exposed through the Mobile App and the Open Prices frontend (and probably elsewhere in the future, thanks to web components)
• We strive to thoughtfully design every feature before we move on to implementation, so that we respect Open Food Facts' graphic charter and nascent design system, while having efficient user flows.
• Mockups for Open Prices
• Mobile Mockups for Open Prices
• Benchmark of the defunct Prixing app
