/* For generating Design Tokens, we use Style Dictionary for several reasons:
- It's prepared to easily generate tokens for multiple types of outputs (CSS, SCSS, iOS, Android, documentation, etc.).
- It also works very well out of the box with any kind of Design Tokens formats, like Figma Tokens, as well as APIs to adjust to more custom ones.
- It is probably the most well-known and widely used Design Tokens tool. It has also been regularly maintained for a long time.
- It can easily scale to different necessities we might have in the future.
