Design tokens are standardized variables that structure a scalable UI foundation by defining primitive, semantic, and component levels. They establish consistent naming conventions to standardize theming and component APIs across web and mobile projects.

Set up a token pipeline for Figma-to-code synchronization by configuring Style Dictionary to process your design tokens. This generates multi-platform code outputs, ensuring designs match implementation across web and mobile environments.

Implement dynamic theme switching with CSS custom properties by mapping semantic design tokens to CSS variables. This enables runtime theme overriding and multi-brand support without refactoring component APIs.

The best component patterns for reusable design system architecture include compound components, polymorphic components, variants, and slot patterns. These patterns standardize component APIs to create a consistent design language.

Yes, you can apply these design-system patterns across both web and mobile projects. The token-to-code pipeline generates multi-platform outputs, ensuring a consistent design language and reusable library architectures across different environments.

Primitive tokens are raw values like base colors, semantic tokens map primitives to contextual meanings like primary-button-bg, and component tokens apply semantic tokens to specific UI elements for a clear token taxonomy.
