@tokenami/ds

The official design system for Tokenami. You can use it as a starting point for your project or as a reference for building your own.

Getting started

Install using your package manager of choice:

npm install @tokenami/ds

Then include the design system config in your tokenami.config.js file:

import designSystemConfig from '@tokenami/ds';
import { createConfig } from '@tokenami/css';

export default createConfig({
  ...designSystemConfig,
  include: ['./app/**/*.{ts,tsx}'],
});

The design system includes custom aliases for common properties, such as --p for padding and --px for padding-left and padding-right. Please follow the aliases guide on configuring the css utility to ensure the aliases merge correctly across component boundaries.

Theme selector

Use a data-theme attribute to apply the appropriate light or dark theme to your elements. Otherwise, it will apply the light theme by default to the :root selector.

Grid

Spacing is based on a 4px grid using rem units. The rem value is calculated based on a 16px base font size.

Using numeric values for grid properties such as padding and margin will result in multiples of this grid being applied. For instance, --padding: 2 will add 8px (0.5rem) padding to your element.

Fluid spacing and font sizes

Use the fluid spacing and font size tokens to create responsive designs without micromanaging breakpoints. The utopia guide is a great resource for understanding the concepts behind these tokens.

Spacing

The following example will apply 8px (0.5rem) padding to your element at the smallest breakpoint, and 16px (1rem) padding at the largest breakpoint.

css({
  '--padding': 'var(--fluid-p-clamp_min-max)',
  '--fluid-p-min': 2,
  '--fluid-p-max': 4,
});

You can adjust the breakpoints the fluid spacings apply to by changing the --padding clamp value:

css({
- '--padding': 'var(--fluid-p-clamp_min-max)',
+ '--padding': 'var(--fluid-p-clamp_sm-md)',
  '--fluid-p-min': 2,
  '--fluid-p-max': 4,
});

This will clamp the minimum padding at the small breakpoint, and the maximum padding at the medium breakpoint.

Font sizes

Fluid font sizes accept fluid tokens:

css({
  '--font-size': 'var(--fluid-text-size-clamp_min-max)',
  '--fluid-text-size-min': 'var(--fluid-text-size_xs)',
  '--fluid-text-size-max': 'var(--fluid-text-size_lg)',
});

This will mean a font size that scales between 12px (0.75rem) and 18px (1.125rem) from smallest to largest breakpoints.

Radix UI Colours

The design system uses Radix UI P3 colours and includes fallbacks for browsers/displays that don't support P3 colours.

A powerful feature of this palette is dark mode by default when applying the appropriate steps in the scale to each use case. Find out more about how to use the Radix palette on their website.

Gradients

Use the --gradient_to-[t|r|b|l|tr|tl|br|bl] tokens along with the --gradient-from and --gradient-to custom properties to apply gradients.

css({
  '--background-image': 'var(--gradient_to-b)',
  '--gradient-from': 'var(--color_crimson9)',
  '--gradient-to': 'var(--color_green10)',
});

The base gradients use the sRGB colour space to match the behaviour of design tools, but you can use the --gradient_hd-to-[t|r|b|l|tr|tl|br|bl] tokens to apply gradients using the OKLCH colour space for a more accurate representation of colour.

css({
  '--background-image': 'var(--gradient_hd-to-b)',
  '--gradient-from': 'var(--color_crimson9)',
  '--gradient-to': 'var(--color_green10)',
});

Right-to-left support

The design system includes right-to-left support out of the box. This means that directional properties like padding-left become padding-inline-start, and padding-right becomes padding-inline-end. If you'd like to disable this, remove the respective aliases from your config.
