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.
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.
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.
