Most design systems fail at the foundation. Not because teams do not care, but because tokens are hard to name, scope, and scale. Orange Tokens helps you build a clean design system in Figma by generating color and typography tokens with clear intent. It applies smart naming and variable scoping so colors are used where they should be. Less guesswork, fewer overrides, and a system that stays consistent as your product grows.
Design systems don't break at the component level, they break at the token level.
I built Orange Tokens after watching teams struggle with the same problems:
Tokens named inconsistently across projects
Colors reused without clear intent or purpose
No way to prevent misuse except hoping people read documentation
Orange Tokens treats tokens as rules, not just values. Instead of defining color-primary-500 and hoping designers use it correctly, you define when and where it can be applied. Think of it as guardrails built into the token itself.
I'm curious how you handle this today:
Do you rely on documentation to prevent token misuse, or do you have actual enforcement?
What part of your design system causes the most long-term maintenance pain?
Happy to answer questions and genuinely would love to hear how you're approaching this problem 👋
