You can transform a single source of truth into platform-specific outputs like CSS variables and iOS Swift tokens to reduce manual mapping. This approach centralizes design tokens and generates multiple formats from one source configuration.

Structuring design tokens for a multi-platform build pipeline involves creating a tokens directory with JSON files and a configuration file defining platforms. This setup ensures consistent token transformation across web, iOS, and Android environments.

Configuring the build file requires defining your target platforms and output formats within the configuration file. This setup guides the transformation process to output CSS, SCSS, iOS Swift, and Android XML from the same token source.

Yes, it is built for teams scaling design systems across web, iOS, and Android. It applies to teams requiring consistent tokens across build pipelines, satisfying configurations, token structuring, and multi-format output needs in a unified workflow.

Cross-platform design token drift happens when teams manually map tokens across different platforms. You can automate token mapping by transforming a single source of truth into platform-specific outputs, eliminating manual errors and keeping formats synchronized.
