theo VS style-dictionary

There are some great well established tools out there that do this, such as Theo and Style Dictionary but for this I turned to the sage advice of Andy Bell via buildexcellentwebsit.es and used Tailwind to run through the token JSON files and generate the CSS variables I can use in my styling.

function getStyleDictionaryConfig(brand) { return { source: [`tokens/brands/${brand}/*.json`, 'tokens/globals/**/*.json'], platforms: { /** * Available platforms: https://amzn.github.io/style-dictionary/#/config?id=platform */ web: { transformGroup: 'web', buildPath: `build/web/${brand}/`, files: [ { destination: 'tokens.scss', format: 'scss/variables', }, ], }, }, } } /** * Build the tokens for each brand. * {@see - Example based on https://github.com/amzn/style-dictionary/tree/main/examples/advanced/multi-brand-multi-platform} */ ['microsoft', 'xbox'].map(function (brand) { ['web'].map(function (platform) { const StyleDictionary = StyleDictionaryPackage.extend( getStyleDictionaryConfig(brand), ) StyleDictionary.buildPlatform(platform) }) })

Check out the official examples projects provided by Style Dictionary. In our case, we just used the basic example 👍

Did you know about Style Dictionary https://github.com/amzn/style-dictionary Its a tool that creates Design Tokens for different platforms using a JSON file. Sounds similar to what you are trying to achieve.

Cool. Can you compare this to https://github.com/amzn/style-dictionary?
