  $ ./bin/run [COMMAND]

Scorecard

Gather metrics around the adoption of a design system.

USAGE
  $ tempera scorecard -s https://www.figma.com/developers -t ./tokens.js

OPTIONS
  -s, --site=site  site url to analyze
  -t, --tokens=tokens  relative path to tokens file
  -j, --json=json  (optional) flag to enable printing output as a JSON blob; requires -o, --output to be set
  -o, --output=output  (optional) relative path for a JSON file to output; requires -j, --json to be enabled

DESCRIPTION
  ...
  Scorecard analyzes a web app or web page,
  collecting design system adoption metrics
  and insights for adoption.

Tokens

Design tokens are key-value pairs that represent a specification (aka "spec") of a design system.

If you are new to design tokens, here's a good place to start.

Tempera's scorecard command expects these tokens to be in the javascript/es6 format which you can generate using Style Dictionary except exported as CommonJS modules.

In other words, flat CommonJS modules in PascalCase are expected.

Example:

module.exports.ColorBackgroundBase = "#ffffff";
module.exports.ColorBackgroundAlt = "#fcfcfcfc";

Support for tokens in ES6 format is on the roadmap.

The scorecard command expects the tokens to match against one of the following matchers after being transformed to kebab case:

module.exports.BORDER_RADIUS = /border-radius/g;
module.exports.BREAKPOINT = /max-width/g;
module.exports.COLOR = /color/g;
module.exports.DELAY = /delay/g;
module.exports.DURATION = /duration/g;
module.exports.FONT_FAMILY = /font-family/g;
module.exports.FONT_SIZE = /font-size/g;
module.exports.FONT_WEIGHT = /font-weight/g;
module.exports.LINE_HEIGHT = /line-height/g;
module.exports.SPACING = /margin|padding/g;
module.exports.TIMING = /timing/g;

You can learn more about the underlying css-types package that utilizes these matchers.

Packages

Tools

In addition to a CLI, Tempera offers other tools to improve design tokens adoption.

stylelint-tokens

A Stylelint plugin that helps avoid the adoption of unofficial design specifications.

Installation

yarn add @tempera/stylelint-tokens

Usage

Install Stylelint and update your configuration file to utilize the plugin.

// stylelint.config.js
const tokens = require("./fixtures/example-tokens");

module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: ["@tempera/stylelint-tokens"],
  rules: {
    "@tempera/official-specs": tokens,
  },
};

Tokens

The plugin expects these tokens to be in the javascript/es6 format which you can generate using Style Dictionary except exported as CommonJS modules.

In other words, flat CommonJS modules in PascalCase are expected.

Example:

module.exports.ColorBackgroundBase = "#ffffff";
module.exports.ColorBackgroundAlt = "#fcfcfcfc";

Support for tokens in ES6 format is on the roadmap.

You are welcome and encouraged to use these packages directly should you need a custom solution.

🚀 Contributing to these packages is also welcome.

css-types

Utilities to categorize your CSS.

Installation

Usage

const {
  // Example: matchers.SPACING
  // Contains a list of regex matchers to help match common types in CSS
  matchers,
  // example: getMatcher(postcssProperty)
  // Returns a regex matcher fitting for the provided property

postcss-scorecard

A PostCSS plugin that exposes hooks into design token adoption validation.

Installation

yarn add @tempera/postcss-scorecard

Usage

const pxToRem = require("postcss-pxtorem");
const expandShorthand = require("postcss-shorthand-expand");

await postcss()
  .use(pxToRem())
  .use(expandShorthand)
  .use(
    scorecard({
      onInvalid: (score) => {
        // do something when CSS property is not an official spec
      },
      onValid: (score) => {
        // do something when CSS property is an official spec
      },
      onFinished: () => {
        // do something after validation finishes
      },
      specs, // the official design tokens
    })
  )
  .process(css, { from: undefined });

In other words, flat CommonJS modules in PascalCase are expected.

Example:

module.exports.ColorBackgroundBase = "#ffffff";

Demo

View On CodeSandbox

Installation

yarn add @tempera/stitches

Usage

import getStitches from '@tempera/stitches';
import getTwind from '@tempera/twind';
import { style } from 'twind/style';

import tokens from './tokens';

const stitches = getStitches(tokens);

const { tw } = getTwind(tokens);

function Demo() {
  const button = style(stitches.button);

  return (
    <div>

Tokens

The plugin expects these specs/tokens to be in the javascript/es6 format which you can generate using Style Dictionary.

In other words, flat modules in PascalCase are expected.

The tokens should follow the following format:

// base format
export const Component[COMPONENT]Base[LONGHAND_CSS_PROPERTY];

// size format
export const Component[COMPONENT][SIZE][LONGHAND_CSS_PROPERTY];

// variant format
export const Component[COMPONENT][VARIANT][UI_STATE][LONGHAND_CSS_PROPERTY];

export const ComponentButtonBaseFontSize = '1rem';
export const ComponentButtonBaseColor = 'red';
export const ComponentButtonSmallFontSize = '0.75rem';
export const ComponentButtonSecondaryDefaultBackgroundColor = 'red';
export const ComponentButtonSecondaryDefaultColor = 'white';
export const ComponentButtonSecondaryDefaultFontSize = '0.875rem';
export const ComponentButtonSecondaryHoverFontSize = '0.75rem';
export const ColorPrimary = 'red';
export const ColorWhite = 'white';
export const FontSizeTiny = '0.75rem';
export const FontSizeSmall = '0.875rem';
export const FontSizeMedium = '1rem';
export const LineHeightTiny = '1rem';
export const LineHeightSmall = '1.25rem';
export const LineHeightMedium = '1.5rem';
