Usage

BabelPlugin

A babel plugin to optimise performance and support fallbacks for Design System tokens.

It replaces any calls to the @atlaskit/tokens token() function with the CSS value the function would return (i.e. var(--token-name) or variations with fallbacks).

If there’s no fallback, the plugin (optionally) finds the token’s value from the default Atlassian theme, and sets it as the fallback.

If there is a fallback defined in code, it’s inserted into the style (expressions are inserted using template strings).

Usage

Add the plugin to your babel configuration:

{
  "plugins": ["@atlaskit/tokens/babel-plugin"]
}

Options

Currently the plugin supports one option, shouldUseAutoFallback. When enabled, the plugin will fetch the token's value in the default Atlassian theme (currently atlassian-light) and use it as the fallback value.

This is useful for cases where tokens are in use, but token definitions aren't present in the top-level page CSS.
