Token-to-code handoff tutorial

A token-to-code handoff delivers named color, type, spacing and motion tokens with values and usage notes so engineering can implement UI consistently. Completeness beats unverifiable “ships 2× faster” claims.

Checklist

  1. Export token names and values (color, type, space, radius, motion).
  2. Map tokens to CSS variables or theme keys used by the target app.
  3. Include dark/light or brand-variant rules only if they exist.
  4. Attach component examples that consume the tokens.
  5. List open questions (missing states, unsettled names).
