Makes sense to have some of those in here as well, but I wonder to what point they'll be useful as 'standalone' reports: the point of a design system is the combination of font-families/sizes/weights/line-heights. The individual tokens themselves don't add much value. I wonder if you expect these results to end up on projectwallace.com, or do you have another use case in mind for them?
I've been using the raw data from the tool and comparing them against our token values in the design system showing a number of "incorrect" values vs. "correct" values -- a report card of sorts. This gives us a good idea of the level of adoption of our tokens for a given page of our site. I'm not using projectwallace.com for this.
I think you're right that font-weight and letter-spacing are less valuable because they are often tied to line-height, font-family and font-size which you already have. Generally if those properties match up then the others will too.
So I suppose the one I'd like to add is border-radius.
You can see our full token list here: https://rei.github.io/rei-cedar-docs/tokens/all-tokens/
Maybe spacing and inset (margin/padding values) but that may generate too much noise.
That's a nice looking system! I'll take your suggestions in consideration.
Judging by your use case I should breathe in some new life into Constyble. Second time this week where it could be really useful. https://github.com/projectwallace/constyble
Note to self: need to check for the following properties:
@KenjiCrosland working on this issue, but I wonder how useful it is to cram everything under an single property. Any of these values could be set from a shorthand (border-radius
), but also as one of the individual properties. Auditing this list would be pretty difficult, I imagine.
These are some examples from real-life websites:
{
"0": 69,
"6px": 109,
"0 0 6px 6px": 2,
".5em": 1,
"1px": 1,
"6px 6px 0 0": 2,
"4px": 46,
"8px": 45,
"50%": 3
}
{
"0": 67,
"8px": 9,
"11px": 213,
"2px": 22,
".125rem": 2,
"6px": 4,
"5.5px": 4,
"4px": 4,
"50%": 22,
"0 11px 11px 0": 10,
"20px": 2,
"0 100% 100% 0": 2,
"50% 0 0 50%": 2,
"11px 11px 0 0": 16,
"0 0 11px 11px": 2,
"3px": 8,
"22px": 4,
".5em": 4,
"5px": 4,
".2em": 4,
"100%": 2,
".3em": 2,
"11px 0 0 0": 4,
"0 11px 0 0": 4,
"1.125em": 2,
"1.125em 0 0 1.125em": 2,
"11px 0 0 11px": 14,
"6px 0 0 6px": 2,
"0 6px 6px 0": 2,
"0 1em 1em 0": 2
}
Brought some new life into the border-radius stuff because nowadays we have itemsPerContext
if we opt into that, meaning that we can keep track of the property that set a particular radius.
Hey @bartveneman I'm working on a project that makes use of the css-analyzer to determine if the designs on a particular page are in alignment with our design tokens.
I noticed a new property for "line-height" was added about a week ago. There are a couple more properties I'd like to add to the analyzer if possible. Would it be possible to raise some PRs to include these properties?
Thanks,
Kenji
