As our development team progresses with the Macon Code Small Business Startup project, it has become apparent that establishing a cohesive style guide is crucial for maintaining consistency and professionalism across the platform. This style guide will serve as a foundational resource for designers, developers, and content creators to ensure a unified visual and user experience.
Project Background:
The Macon Code Small Business Startup project aims to provide a comprehensive platform tailored specifically for individuals interested in launching small businesses within the Macon, Georgia area. Given the diverse audience and the importance of representing the local entrepreneurial community accurately, adhering to a consistent style is paramount.

Target Audience:
The style guide will primarily cater to our development team, including designers, front-end developers, and content creators. It will serve as a reference point for ensuring consistency and coherence in design decisions throughout the project's lifecycle.
Importance:
A well-defined style guide not only streamlines the design and development process but also enhances the overall user experience. By adhering to a consistent visual language, we can establish brand recognition, improve usability, and foster trust among our target audience.
Timeline:
