Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Gestalt Design Tokens

This package contains all of the design tokens used by the Pinterest Gestalt Design System. The tokens are built for multiple platforms using Style Dictionary.

To build the tokens, run the following command from within the package directory /gestalt-design-tokens:

yarn build

You can also build and watch the project so that the output folder automatically updates when new tokens are added, by running:

yarn watch

You should see something like this output in the terminal:

css
✔︎  dist/scss/_variables.scss

android
✔︎  dist/android/space.xml
✔︎  dist/android/colors.xml


ios
✔︎  dist/ios/GestaltDesignTokensColor.h
✔︎  dist/ios/GestaltDesignTokensColor.m
✔︎  dist/ios/GestaltDesignTokensSize.h
✔︎  dist/ios/GestaltDesignTokensSize.m

ios-swift
✔︎  dist/ios-swift/GestaltDesignTokens.swift

ios-swift-separate-enums
✔︎  dist/ios-swift/GestaltDesignTokensColor.swift
✔︎  dist/ios-swift/GestaltDesignTokensSize.swift

This should have created a dist directory and it will look similar to this:

├── README.md
├── config.json
├── tokens/
│   ├── color/
│       ├── base.json
│   ├── space/
│       ├── base.json
├── dist/
│   ├── android/
│      ├── space.xml
│      ├── colors.xml
│   ├── scss/
│      ├── _variables.scss
│   ├── ios/
│      ├── StyleDictionaryColor.h
│      ├── StyleDictionaryColor.m
│      ├── StyleDictionarySize.h
│      ├── StyleDictionarySize.m
│   ├── ios-swift/
│      ├── StyleDictionary.swift
│      ├── StyleDictionaryColor.swift
│      ├── StyleDictionarySize.swift

Adding and Changing Tokens

If you open config.json you will see there are currently 5 platforms defined: css, android, json, ios, and ios-swift. Each platform has a transformGroup, buildPath, and files. The buildPath and files of the platform should match up to the files what were built.

Pretty nifty! This shows a few things happening:

  1. The build system does a deep merge of all the token JSON files defined in the source attribute of config.json. This allows you to split up the token JSON files however you want. For example, there can be multiple JSON files with color as the top level key, but they get merged properly.
  2. The build system resolves references to other design tokens. {size.font.medium.value} gets resolved properly.
  3. The build system handles references to token values in other files as well.

Now let's make a change and see how that affects things. Open up tokens/color/base.json and change "#111111" to "#000000". After you make that change, save the file and re-run the build command yarn build. Open up the build files and take a look.

Huzzah!

Now go forth and create! This package is utilizing Style Dictionary. Take a look at all the built-in transforms and formats.
