Overview

Important

This repo has been moved to Oxford/Gitlab

Contains base tokens, semantic tokens, font files and foundational assets for IDS.

Design Tokens

Design tokens are pieces of data that represent foundational styles in the design system. They simplify the way product teams interpret and apply the design language, resulting in more cohesive, scalable interfaces. Find more info in the design system. This guide just covers how to use them in the context of this repo and things like exporting / consuming.

Types

Tokens are categorized by the foundational style that’s applied.

Token		Example	Status
color	Defines fills for backgrounds, text, icons, and borders	color-background-default	Included
radius	Defines border radii for backgrounds, text, icons, and borders	border-radius-xs	Included
space	Defines scalable padding and margin units for grids and layouts	space-xl	Included
font	Defines typography attributes like font families, weights, sizes, and line height	font-size-label	Included
border	Defines stroke widths, styles, and radiuses	border-style-dashed	Included
size	Defines other reusable values for heights, widths, and breakpoints	size-70	Future
shadow	Defines box shadow properties like offsets, blur, and color	shadow-error	Future
motion	Defines animations during certain interaction states	motion-ease	Future

Using the Tokens

Code

Sass files for the tokens are provided as CSS variables. We may provide other formats as needed.

To use the components:

1. Take the core and semantic tokens from /ids-foundation. View component tokens in @infor-design/enterprise-wc.
2. Use the npm package.
3. Or additionally note that the web component theme css files contain the tokens, so if you are using those you can just start using the tokens.

Design

Semantic tokens can be manually applied in Figma by adding the IDS Design Tokens library. Tokenized Figma components will available in the future.

Using the System Fonts

The system fonts are included in the fonts directory. They are used in the web components and can be used in your projects as well. See ./fonts for more information and readme. To get around GDPR issues we strongly recommend you serve this with your app.
