Text Style System Examples (No font families or sizes)
- Roles: display, headline, title, subtitle, body, caption, code
- Scale: tokenized (e.g., text.scale/[900..100]) without explicit units
- Line rhythm: balanced readability; maintain consistent proportional spacing
- Use:
- Marketing: display > headline > body for editorial emphasis
- Product UI: title > body for clarity; caption for metadata
- Data-heavy: title > body with muted metadata; code for technical labels
- Accessibility:
- Maintain sufficient reading contrast and comfortable line length
- Respect user preference settings for larger text
- Example sets:
- Editorial emphasis: display, headline, body, caption structured for feature stories
- App clarity: title, body, caption for dense interfaces
- Technical docs: headline, body, code, caption for reference material
- Data dashboards: title, number, body, annotation for metrics
- Mobile-first: title, body, caption for compact layouts
Component Libraries (Comprehensive Example Sets)
- Buttons: [primary, secondary, subtle, destructive, ghost] × [base, hover, active, focus, disabled, loading]
- Inputs: [text, textarea, select, date, number, search] × states [base, focus, error, success, disabled]
- Toggles: [switch, checkbox, radio, segmented] × states [off, on, mixed]
- Navigation: [topbar, sidebar, tabs, breadcrumbs, pagination] × densities [compact, comfy]
- Feedback: [banner, toast, inline, dialog] × types [informative, success, warning, error]
- Overlays: [modal, popover, tooltip, drawer] × elevations [sheet, panel, overlay]
- Data display: [table, list, grid, card, chip, badge, tag] × helpers [sorting, filtering, pinning]
- Forms: [group, field, helper, validation, summary] × patterns [wizard, inline, modal]
- Media: [avatar, thumbnail, gallery, carousel] × states [loading, error, placeholder]
- Charts (styling only, no palette specifics): [line, bar, area, pie, donut, scatter, heatmap, treemap] with tokenized emphasis and state annotations
Interaction + Motion Patterns (Example Sets)
- Microinteractions:
- Button: base→hover→active→success; base→hover→active→error
- Input: base→focus→valid/invalid with inline messaging
- Toggle: off→on with spring-like responsiveness; reduced-motion fallback
- Tooltip: delay-in, immediate-out for responsiveness
- Transitions:
- Page: parent/child transitions with staged surface and content reveals
- Overlay: fade-elevate in; snap-close or scrim-drag to dismiss
- List updates: diff-aware item entry/exit with reflow smoothing
- Gesture patterns:
- Pull to refresh; swipe to archive; long-press reveal; drag-sort with handle affordances
- Accessibility:
- Motion-reduction modes; focus-preserving transitions; ARIA live-region updates for async events
Layout & Composition Example Sets
- Grids: container grids (fixed, fluid), content grids (cards, media), data grids (tables)
- App shells: topbar + sidebar, topbar + tabs, split-pane master/detail, workspace canvas
- Content pages: hero + highlights, article + aside, gallery masonry, long-form docs
- Forms: multi-step wizard, inline quick-edit, compact modal forms
- Dashboard patterns: KPI header, segmented widgets, long-scrolling analytics, filter panel
- Empty/edge states: guided first-run, no-results, offline, permission-denied, timeouts
- Spacing system: tokenized spacing [xs..xxl] with 1D rhythm; consistent container padding
Design Token Structure (Without referring to specific swatches or families)
- theme.surface/[base|muted|raised|overlay]
- theme.action/[primary|secondary|subtle|destructive]
- theme.text/[default|muted|inverse|annotation|code]
- theme.status/[success|informative|warning|error]
- focus.ring/[default|strong]
- border.radius/[none|sm|md|lg|pill]
- elevation/[flat|sheet|panel|overlay]
- spacing/[xs|sm|md|lg|xl|xxl]
- text.scale/[900..100] and text.role/[display|headline|title|body|caption|code]
- motion.duration/[fast|base|slow], motion.easing/[standard|entrance|exit|spring-like]
- z.stack/[base|overlay|tooltip|modal|toast]
Accessibility & Quality Gates
- Contrast and readability: ensure strong separation between interactive elements and their surroundings
- Focus visibility: ring tokens applied consistently across inputs, buttons, links
- Target sizes: comfortable touch and click areas; generous spacing around action clusters
- Error clarity: inline messages near source with actionable guidance
- Keyboard-first: logical tab order, skip links, visible focus on overlays and dialogs
- Reduced motion: alternative transitions for users preferring minimal movement
- Internationalization: flexible layouts accommodating direction and length variations
Content & Microcopy Patterns
