Token Architecture

Option Tokens (private)

Raw palette values (--palette-blue-500, --palette-neutral-50). Never consumed directly by components.

Decision Tokens (public)

Semantic references (--primary, --background, --success). Dark/light mode swap happens here. Components consume these.

Component Tokens (scoped)

Bind decision tokens to specific UI elements (--button-primary-bg, --card-bg). Optional layer for design system maturity.

Motion

Fast100ms
Normal200ms
Slow300ms

The Remove-It Test

Every animation must pass: "If I remove this animation, do I lose information or clarity?" If the answer is no, the animation is decorative and should be questioned.

  • Default easing: ease-out (CSS) or spring with low bounce
  • State changes are the only reason to animate
  • Respect prefers-reduced-motion unconditionally
  • No ambient looping animations in production UI
