Design Tokens

(qgds-tokens)

Style once, use everywhere.

"A Style Dictionary uses design tokens to define styles once and use those styles on any platform or language. It provides a single place to create and edit your styles, and exports these tokens to all the places you need." - Amazon

Setup:

Using this repository:

Run:

    npm run build

Verify outputs

   npm run test

CI

   npm run ci

The Usage of Tokens Studio

Using Tokens Studio to update tokens directly from Figma is welcomed. Sometimes, Tokens Studio may change or add $metadata and $theme tokens that had already been defined. In case this happens, we've added *.original to assist you in reverting back to how build-tokens is expecting these files to be configured.

Publish system

There is two publish subsystems, one is to npmjs and the other is to github repo package

Github package repository

Still work in progress:

  • currently missing cleanup prior to publishing latest tag
  • needs to publish when a version is cut (including incrementing package.json version if not same)
