🗒️ Enhancements when starting a new project

When starting a new project with Tokens Studio the community would like to see:

  • Template files of design tokens with different levels of complexity and theming needs.

  • Examples of token naming that references guides to teach the best practices

  • The ability to pull tokens from a sync provider on opening the plugin in a new file without needing to navigate several pages deep to find the sync settings

  • The ability to reset the plugin to an empty project after loading a template (preset tokens)

😬 The reality

Getting started as a new user can be overwhelming. Without examples for inspiration, it can be hard to understand the key concepts needed to build a token system.

New projects can have the "blank canvas" effect, so allowing folks to pull from a repository of their own past projects or looking at templates can help kick-start the creative process.

💡 Ideally

Once they have their ideas, it would be great to be able to reset the plugin. Today we have to go to a new file to start new, or delete each JSON file manually.

💬 Feedback that is valuable

  • What sorts of templates would be helpful and why?

  • What other things do you do when starting a new project that could be included as a part of the plugin experience?
