Why this system had to exist
I started Automation Builder to create a cleaner way to compose automation logic without dropping directly into raw JSON or brittle configuration screens. The project needed a frontend architecture that could evolve into a full builder, not just a one-off mockup. That meant organizing the app around reusable UI primitives and future workflow graph interactions.
