Previously the generator was only handling hard-defined design tokens
preventing to make custom tokens to appear in the scss generated file.
This new way of generating the file handles custom tokens in a more
generic way.
For now there is a conflict with the new Prettier version, so for now
we just keep the previous version to check it later during the next
renovate pull request.
Integrate new styling classes for grid-cells to facilitate range selection
in the DatePicker component. This implementation improves the visual
representation and user experience of selecting a range. In addition,
outside-month cells are now hidden, to avoid having a range selection
that contains outside-month cells.
Previously we were not fully using CSS variables as values used in
CSS were hard-coded one. It wasn't keeping the variable references.
This was causing issues when customizing the theme, because editing
colors was not enough, it was needed to customize also the tokens
using these variables. Now by introducing ref() we can delegate how
to deal with these directly to the generators themselves.
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.
Create color sub maps seems to be a good idea but in fact was not. In
fact if with need to create token sub map this structure should appear
within the tokens module.
Volta.js is a tool to manage easily several versions of Node locally.
This tool is able to switch automatically to the right Node version by
parsing package.json of the project. So we run volta pin node@16.15 for
each of cunningham package.
Previously, when using the cunningham bin to build tokens, the CSS
file always included utility classes, resulting in duplicated CSS
utility classes on the consumer side if no specific CSS optimizer
is defined ( its local cunningham-tokens.css + the one from the
react package ). Now, this new feature introduces a param named
--utility-classes that must be provided to generate those classes.
This params is henceforth only provided to the bin inside the tokens
package.
We needed a tool to automate the handling of monorepo's changelogs and
packages publishing. We want to make the CI responsible to automatically
publish bumped packages and create associated tags.
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.
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 allow to use the default tokens from Typescript or Javascript file
of dependents repos. For instance this wîll be used by packages/react
to aggregate components tokens files.
Add the support to load cunningham.ts local config file based on ts-node.
Those files will be loaded as CommonJS to preserve to coherence regarding
the way the cunningham bin is ran by node.
This allows to modify the working dir of the bin. This will be
particularly useful when running tests, this is not especially
intended to be vastly used by end-users.
Relatives import are quite ugly and reduces readability, but
hard to say that Typescript handles it very well for compilation
time, but nothing for runtime. That's why I had to add tsc-alias
to the build script. Please see this issue for more details.

Furthermore, some configuration was needed for Jest to work well.
