Design Token Thinking
  • Design tokens require an entirely new way of thinking and working.
  • Designers can be documenting their design system, but the documentation will always be a step behind their design file.
  • The author unpacks the idea of an alternative design system and names it “the way of the future.”
  • Design tokens need to become a primary method for how you talk about and interact with your design system, both internally and externally.
  • In the end, you can get a design system that is:
    1. Future proof
    2. Accessible
    3. Able to be easily changed.

  • Building a “development matrix” might help to define desired outcomes and the worst-case scenario. A “development matrix”:
    • helps to define a spectrum of possible outcomes to assess how key functions performed
    • makes it easier to improve the product at different stages and take into consideration both functional and emotional expectation
