Guide on naming design tokens effectively

“Naming Design Tokens” discusses the strategies for effectively naming design tokens to create a systematic and scalable design language.

Design tokens, which are the building blocks of design systems, require a clear naming convention to maintain consistency and future-proof the system. The resource details the concept of token levels, also known as types, tiers, layers, or groups, and emphasizes the importance of choosing a term that is widely understood within an organization.

Aimed at product designers and developers constructing or managing design systems, the guide serves as a comprehensive reference for establishing a common language and documentation around design tokens.
