OpenVibe Tokens

Your theme, as code

Take any OpenVibe theme into your own app, its light and dark halves together: the web, Android, iOS, Flutter or Figma. The colours are the ones the network paints.

Tailwind

Download understory.tailwind.config.js

Save it as tailwind.config.js beside the CSS file. Classes like bg-bg-raised and text-accent-base read the variables, so light and dark need no rebuild.

// Understory (dark) — generated by openvibe-shared/tokens v1 from the OpenVibe theme "forest". Regenerate instead of editing.
// Pair it with the CSS export (the variables), so a light/dark switch needs no rebuild.

Why tokens, and what is next

A theme on OpenVibe is one set of design tokens: semantic names such as color.accent.strong and space.lg, kept apart from any one platform. The web reads them as CSS variables today. An Android or iOS app reads the same values in Compose or SwiftUI, so a native app wears your theme without being a web page in a frame.

The format is the W3C Design Tokens one, so the same file works in Style Dictionary, Tokens Studio and Figma. Next: the kit's components described the same way (anatomy, states, roles), so a page made on OpenVibe.Design can be drawn natively too.
