Tokens, styles, components
Color tokens with light and dark values, responsive text style presets, and component variants give Framer everything needed for a production design system. The 2026 updates added better organization: folders, usage insights, and safer refactoring when a token changes.
We now start every engagement by building the system first: palette, type scale, spacing rhythm, and a small kit of components. Pages come second, and they come fast because of it.
The payoff
When a brand refresh landed mid-project last month, we updated eleven tokens and two text styles. The entire site, forty-plus pages, followed instantly.
