Design-Tokens articles and design guides

Tokens are the boring plumbing that makes a design system hold together, and we love the boring plumbing. Articles here trace the whole path: naming your color and spacing primitives, structuring semantic aliases, syncing Figma variables to code, and shipping JSON through Style Dictionary so designers and engineers stop arguing about hex values. We get into modes, theming, and the naming conventions that survive a rebrand. This is for design system leads and front-end folks who want one source of truth instead of a spreadsheet nobody trusts. Get the token layer right and everything above it gets calmer.
