Adding this new variant makes necessary to reorganize the files to keep
a clear separations of concerns. As of now Select/index.tsx is just an
entrypoint to render either the mono or multi variant of the select.
Based on the Figma DS design by Alex, a mono date-picker
component has been added. It uses react-aria headless ui
component capabilities, with downshift headless ui component.
React-aria was not supporting by default dropdown menus to
select months and years. We could not reuse Popover component
from react-aria because we are not using their headless ui
component for the button one. Clicking on the toggle calendar
button triggers both the button and the popover click outside
events. React-aria button uses a custom onPress props that is
disabled by their popover. Instead, I have implemented a simple
custom hook. This is the first acceptable version of the component.
Some minor user interaction are missing. This first component
doesn't support time selection.
Align design tokens of input component with select component's
design tokens for consistent styling configuration. Having a
transparent background was causing a weird ux.
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.
Based on recent feedbacks this feature was needed. It is important for
the label to still be accessible to screen readers, that's why we
introduced the offscreen class.

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.
