The separation of Design & Operations.
Slate isn't a design tool. It's an operational system that protects your design investment.
The "Blank Canvas" Problem
When you give store managers a drag-and-drop design tool, you get chaos. Fonts change, colors drift, and layouts break. The brand you built gets eroded one edit at a time.
Slate solves this by locking the layer that matters (Design) and opening the layer that needs agility (Content).

Typical "Designer"
Unrestricted editing = Broken layouts
Slate Operator
Locked constraints = Perfect brand
How the system works
1. Layout
Designers build templates in the Studio.
2. Content
Managers update items, prices, and stock.
3. Publish
Changes deploy to specific screens instantly.
4. Sync
Screens cache content for offline playback.
