summary

Designers at GitHub present concrete outcomes: a design token refactor that standardizes names, produces a production-ready JSON, and rolls out via feature flags and fallback CSS with hundreds of PRs; use of Stylant to automate CSS edits and prevent tech debt; an end-to-end Code Connect proof of concept built by installing Figma/code-connect, publishing components, and aligning Figma variants to React; and gradual work that reaches nearly 100% coverage of Primer components, showing the approach works in production.
