Describe a workflow to sync Figma tokens to front-end code
Tests if you see tokens as version-controlled code. Strong answer: Tokens Studio pushes W3C DTCG JSON to Git; CI runs Style Dictionary to emit CSS or JS. Red flag: saying the artifact is a Figma file or manual spec sheet.
Tests whether you treat design tokens as a version-controlled contract between design and engineering. A strong answer covers four steps: designers edit in Tokens Studio and sync W3C DTCG JSON to Git; developers consume that JSON as the single source of truth; Style Dictionary transforms it into CSS variables or JS modules in CI; and releases are gated by token changes like any code. Red flag: calling the artifact a Figma file, PDF spec, or generated CSS rather than the canonical JSON both teams share.
