Foundations
The shared visual rules behind Catalyst components and interfaces.
Foundations define the colors, typography, spacing, and styling conventions that keep an interface consistent. Components apply these rules; themes supply values for different visual contexts.
Design tokens give recurring design decisions a name, such as a color or spacing value, so they can be reused across tools and code. This follows the terminology of the Design Tokens Community Group.
