• Local development: setup, running, making changes to code.

• Monitoring and maintaining speed and stability of automated changes through CI pipelines.

• Enabling UI engineering teams to provide sufficient automated test coverage.

• Facilitating cross-team collaboration during development - e.g. code dependencies and shared libraries.

• Ease of deployment, activation, rollback, and deactivation of features.

• Configuration and administration of UI systems - e.g. code repositories, build pipelines, error reporting, etc.

• Documentation and training for all the above.
