design-md

You can automate DESIGN.md token spec file authoring by running the create command to generate a structured YAML format for your UI project. This initializes your design tokens and prepares them for validation and exporting.

Yes, you can validate design tokens for WCAG contrast compliance automatically. The validation feature checks your token structure, token references, and accessibility standards to ensure your UI components meet requirements.

You can export design tokens to Tailwind CSS and W3C DTCG JSON formats using the export feature. This generates the required format files directly from your structured YAML design tokens for immediate use.

Yes, you need prior knowledge of the DESIGN.md spec and YAML formatting. This prerequisite is required because the authoring, validation, and exporting processes rely heavily on structured YAML inputs.

The best way to lint and diff design tokens across multiple projects is by using automated validation commands. This checks your structure and token references to maintain consistency across your UI components.

Design token validation fails when checking token references if your YAML structure contains broken links or invalid references. The linting process identifies these structural errors to prevent exporting incorrect tokens.
