About this service

Summary

Design tokens are an excellent tool for managing design at scale, ensuring that designs remain up-to-date and consistent across various platforms. They are variables that store information about the design system, such as colors, fonts, spacing, and other design properties.
Storing design information in variables makes it easy to update designs in real-time, which is especially beneficial when working with large teams or managing multiple projects. Additionally, design tokens facilitate the seamless transfer of designs across different platforms, maintaining consistency and efficiency.

What's included

  • Plugin Setup

    The plugin simplifies creating, managing, and using design tokens in projects. It also offers an easy way to share tokens in a JSON file with other team members or clients.

  • Design tokens

    Global tokens define the core design values, such as colours, typography, and spacing across the project. Alias tokens are derived from global tokens and can be adjusted to create theme variations or specific use cases. Component-specific tokens are tailored for individual UI components, ensuring consistency and flexibility in design implementation.

  • Naming design tokens

    Naming conventions for design tokens are crucial for establishing a consistent and modular design system. By adhering to standardized naming practices, it's easier to maintain clarity, ensure uniformity across components, and streamline collaboration among team members

  • Design handoff

    Design handoff involves clearly and organized transfer of the design from the designer to the development team. This process ensures that the development team fully understands all design details, enabling them to implement the design accurately. Effective design handoff minimizes miscommunication and enhances the efficiency and accuracy of the development process.
