## What Orbit stands for

A few principles shape every decision in the system.

### Built for the marketplace

Every pattern is tuned for the realities of heavy-equipment auctions — lots, bids, reserves, and inspection reports.

### Accessible by default

Components ship meeting WCAG guidance, so keyboard, screen-reader, and low-vision buyers can bid with confidence.

### Consistent everywhere

One set of tokens, components, and content rules keeps Ritchie Bros. feeling like one product across every surface.

### Fast to build with

Composable, documented parts mean teams assemble new auction experiences instead of rebuilding the basics.
