What token groups are supported?

The generator comes with predefined groups for Color, Semantic, Surface, Text, Border, and State tokens, providing a strong foundation for any color system.

Can I add custom token groups?

Yes, click the 'Add Custom Group' button to create a new token group tailored to your specific project needs.

What export formats are available?

You can export your tokens as CSS custom properties (variables), structured JSON, or typed TypeScript constants.

Does this follow a design token standard?

The tool produces clean, predictable output designed for modern frontend workflows, but it does not claim formal W3C Design Tokens specification compliance.

How do I use the generated tokens?

Simply copy or download the generated code and import it into your project. Use CSS variables directly in your styles, or import the TypeScript/JSON object to use in CSS-in-JS or configuration files.

Design Token Generator

Q: What are design tokens?

Design tokens are a platform-agnostic way to store design decisions like colors, typography, and spacing as key-value pairs. They help ensure consistency across different platforms and products in a design system.

Create, organize, and export comprehensive color design tokens for your design system.

About the Design Token Generator

Design tokens are the atomic building blocks of a design system. This tool helps you organize your color palette into logical, semantic groups and export them into the formats you need for your web projects, bridging the gap between design and development.

What Are Design Tokens?

Instead of hardcoding colors like #6366f1 across your application, design tokens allow you to give them meaningful names like --color-primary. This makes maintaining, scaling, and theming (like adding dark mode) significantly easier.

Token Groups

Color Tokens

The core brand colors (primary, secondary, accent) that define your identity.

Semantic Tokens

Colors mapped to meaning (success, warning, error, info) to convey state and feedback.

Surface Tokens

Background colors for different levels of elevation and structural elements.

Text & Border Tokens

Specific colors for typography and structural boundaries to ensure proper contrast.

Export Formats

CSS: Generates standard CSS variables (--var-name) organized by group. Perfect for traditional stylesheets and CSS modules.
JSON: Creates a structured, nested JSON object. Ideal for cross-platform processing and tooling integrations.
TypeScript: Outputs a typed const object. Great for CSS-in-JS libraries (like Styled Components or Emotion) and type-safe configurations.
