Is it justified to create a specification for the layout of the site, as in the example at the link below? https://dribbble.com/shots/1706768-UI-Spec/attachm...
If yes, how to do it and how best to organize the spec?
In what cases is it justified to create a UI-kit like this ?
Thanks in advance!

In general, it would not be bad to do something like this, you won't have much time for this one. There are specialized tools.

I would cry and kiss a designer who would work so hard on his layout!

And yet, no one intelligibly answered "whether it is necessary."
In my opinion, if the designer himself does the layout of the site layout, then this is superfluous. Yes, even if not, it's all the same in the presence of a modular grid, which is used by any sane design already behind the eyes.
If the layout is more complicated than that in the example (and in the example it is simple), then you will get tired of making this specification, and it will take a lot of time.
So my personal opinion is that this is all a waste of time, which does not speed up the development in any way and, moreover, does not affect the quality in any way. And therefore, it is justified only if you are an enthusiast and want to cause an orgasm with a rainbow from a colleague.
