Tokens.
Components.
Motion.
A separate learning space for interface consistency, reusable parts, and the token language that keeps a product coherent as it grows.
Learning pathway
The course is open now. The archive stays visible so later additions can grow without changing the layout again.
Token lab
Pick the token set that feels most coherent, then inspect how the palette changes the preview card.
This preview uses the selected token set to show how background, surface, border, and accent work together.
- • Why semantic tokens beat one-off styling.
- • How surfaces, borders, and accents work together.
- • How a small system can still feel distinctive and coherent.
The palette should support the content, not compete with it.
This can later expand into theme editing, component previews, and state catalog reviews without changing the course shell.
