The Challenges
The Challenges
Implementing Dark Mode was far from a simple switch. Our existing design system was built without Dark Mode in mind, meaning we had to carefully re-evaluate and adapt our color tokens to support dual themes. Every element, from text to backgrounds, had to be assigned variables for Light and Dark versions, ensuring consistent quality and usability in both modes.
The design team meticulously created a set of variable tokens, such as those for Neutral and Orange tones, to manage colors across different sections of the site. These tokens were defined with specific light and dark values for each shade, giving us granular control over the visual presentation in both modes. However, translating these into code and ensuring their correct implementation required a close collaboration with our development team.

We worked closely with developers to instruct them on how to apply these variable tokens across the website. This involved detailed guidelines on where each token should be applied and frequent reviews to catch inconsistencies. Using tokens not only streamlined the development process but also future-proofed the system, allowing us to make adjustments easily as needed.
