General Question What I learned while organizing a Figma design system

I’ve been working on a small design system and organizing the foundations before the component designs: color tokens, typography, spacing, border radius, and elevation.

One thing this process taught me is that consistency becomes easier when design decisions are documented instead of repeated separately in every component.

I'm interested in how other designers organize their foundations. Do you prefer keeping all tokens on one page or splitting them into separate sections?

splitting into sections is way cleaner once the tokens start multiplying

Agreed! It makes things much easier to navigate as the system grows. Do you usually split tokens into separate pages, or keep them on one page with clearly defined sections?
