SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Design a scalable theming architecture that supports multi-brand variants, dark mode, and high-contrast modes using a token-mapping approach.

Core Features & Use Cases

Global tokens (raw palette) and semantic tokens (purpose-driven aliases) with per-brand overrides.
Runtime theme switching across light/dark/high-contrast and density modes for accessible, consistent UI.
Use Case: implement a family of brands with consistent visuals while enabling quick theme iteration.

Quick Start

Define a base token set and a dark mode variant, then apply theming to a sample component.

FAQPage Schema

How do I build a scalable theming architecture for multi-brand applications?▼

A scalable theming architecture uses layered tokens—global, semantic, and component—to support multi-brand applications. This approach enables per-brand overrides and consistent visual application across UI libraries and design systems.

How does token mapping handle dark mode and high-contrast accessibility?▼

Token mapping handles dark mode and high-contrast accessibility by defining semantic tokens that map to raw palette values, enabling runtime theme switching while enforcing accessibility-aware mappings across light, dark, and high-contrast modes.

What is the difference between global and semantic tokens in a design system?▼

Global tokens represent the raw palette, whereas semantic tokens are purpose-driven aliases that reference global tokens. Semantic tokens allow developers to apply per-brand overrides and support density modes without altering underlying raw values.

Can I use CSS variables for runtime theme switching across brand variants?▼

Yes, the theming system enables CSS variables per theme to facilitate runtime theme switching. This allows applications to instantly toggle between brand variants, light/dark modes, and high-contrast settings without reloading.

Does this theming approach work across different UI libraries?▼

Yes, the token-mapping approach applies across various UI libraries and design systems. By defining a base token set and applying layered semantic tokens, you can implement consistent theming that supports quick iteration across different component ecosystems.
