Included file formats

This package includes tokens in JavaScript (ECMAScript Module and CommonJS) and CSS formats.

JavaScript (ECMAScript Module)

Try this first! Using JavaScript variables can give you a better developer experience with autocomplete.

The js directory contains an index file with the tokens in ESM format: js/index.js

TypeScript definitions are includes at: js/index.d.ts

Example import:

import * as tokens from "@bcgov/design-tokens/js";

To help avoid name collisions, prefixed versions of the ESM variables with bcds added are available: js-prefixed/index.js

JavaScript (CommonJS)

Some environments don't support ESM imports. For these situations, a CommonJS module is included.

The cjs directory contains an index file with tokens in CJS format: cjs/index.js

TypeScript definitions are included at: cjs/index.d.ts

Example import:

const tokens = require("@bcgov/design-tokens/cjs");

To help avoid name collisions, prefixed versions of the CJS variables with bcds added are available: cjs-prefixed/index.js

CSS

CSS variables are included at: css/variables.css

To help avoid name collisions, prefixed versions of the CSS variables with bcds added are available: css-prefixed/variables.css
