This Wiki is designed to be a general reference for the authoring, maintaining, and distributing design tokens for Spectrum, Adobe's design system.

  • Token name structure: design token name parts and order description.
  • Token workflow diagram: a diagram of how Spectrum Tokens are authored, distributed, and used by implementations of the design system.
  • Snapshot-release-using-GitHub-actions: snapshot releases can be published from Spectrum Tokens to prototype ideas and quickly distribute design token changes outside of the expected release processes for main and beta branches.

Proposals for new features and structure of the design tokens in the future:

  • Component token relationships: currently, the primary source of data tying design tokens to components is kept in Figma design spec files. This page proposes a solution for codifying this data to make it easier for implementations to consume this data and more easily maintain components.
  • Anonymous design tokens: related to component token relationships, this page details how token metadata could be moved outside of design token name strings into something more structured.
