Design to Dev Handoff

Hey Designers, I have a question for you. I would like to understand the process you follow to hand over the design work to the Project Manager/Dev team. How do you ensure that the work/requirement/feature is translated effectively? What are your pain points?

I was a designer for 10 years and frontend dev for 14 years.
In an ideal scenario a designer would know a bit about code and a developer would be a little handy with design. IMO the best path if you dont have that is for dev and design to do a quick run though 1 on 1. This might only take 5 mins or it might take all day - depends on how detailed the changes are.
I really believe that design and dev (especially frontend dev) should be "buddies". They should be on the same wave length and should collaborate with each other. In reality though a dev should always take a detailed look at proposed designs and raise concerns immediately so they can be addressed. Designers should state their case if they're passionate about something that receiving pushback from a dev. Designer and Dev should work together to launch the best solution.
