Spacing is the foundation of design structure and readability, creating a sense of balance and harmony within your layouts. Proper annotations are crucial in bridging the gap between designers and developers, ensuring clear communication and reducing misunderstandings during the design-to-code process.

By annotating spacing effectively, you establish consistency in paddings, margins, and overall layouts, which becomes especially critical when scaling designs for various devices and screen sizes.
