01Overview
A component library and token set for a product team who had four different blues and no agreement about any of them. The work was as much about the decision record as the components.
This is sample project content. Replace it with a description of your own work.
02The approach
Previous attempts failed because the library and the design file were maintained separately. Generating both from the same source removed the argument entirely.
03Key contributions
Defined the token schema, wrote the generator, and built the first fifteen components alongside the team so they owned them.
04Walkthrough
Tokens are the single source: one file generates the CSS custom properties, the design tool variables and the documentation table, so the three can never drift apart.
05Outcome
One blue. Describe what changed on your own project here.
