Previously we were using standard Roboto Font but we were struggling to
get the same boldness as the ones from the Figma sketches. It appears
that Figma uses Roboto Flex, so by installing it we can now nearly
perfectly align our visuals with the ones form the sketches. I had to
do some custom tweaks with the weights of the font because if we
use exactly the same font-weight as in Figma the render is still different.
Storybook was emitting warnings errors about the fact that ArgsTable
is deprecated, and also I rewrote imports as those are not the one
used in the doc anymore, this will prevent breaking changes in the
upcoming upgrades.
Due to the recent upgrade to Storybook 7, the source blocks of Canvases
were broken, they were only showing args. This was mainly due to the fact
that as of Storybook 7 the meta tags of the MDX files have changed, thus
causing the issue. These are now based on imports. We also needed to rename
index.stories.mdx files to index.mdx because Storybook was throwing errors,
maybe due to a conflicts with index.stories.tsx files and new imports.
Anyway this way of naming MDX files seems to be the recommend one based on
the official documentation.
Generated types for the react package were broken because they were
still using absolute imports which cannot work in standalone .d.ts
files because they cannot rely on the local baseUrl compiler option.
Thus, we introduced an alias that we are able to reliably replace
during type generation.
Previously using Button with only an icon made it render with an
internal offset, that wasn't really nice-looking. Now we force the
button to be squared.
These were the missing parts in order to use every design tokens
of Cunningham. Including: spacing, font weight, size, family, and
colors. In order to be really versatile and to allow users to
define new design tokens I had to re-organize the way those tokens
are sub divided in sub objects in cunningham.ts file. That's why
sub division are created for theme.typ.sizes for instance.
We adding do's and don't to the documentation I realized that the
danger button was really important in some cases even if the style
was not delivered by designers. Example: Delete buttons.
Based on the work delivered by designers, we simply replicates those
in the storybook documentation in order to centralize everything
related to the Button component.
These files will be used to define the custom design tokens per components.
They are automatically aggregated by the packages/react/cunningham.ts file,
this is why handling typescript config file was important.
This repo only contains a Button which is here only for demonstration purpose.
Its purpose is to contain all the future react-based components of the
design system.
