Hi Debbie
One question, how to handle/manage the tokens?
Do you extract them automatically from Figma using their API?

Thanks

great question. You can, there are plugins for that such as github.com/lukasoppermann/design-t.... you will then have to modify as the json is a bit different. I haven't worked with the API and I know there are some tools that allow you to but with Bit it wasn't possible

Yeah, I have been doing a research and I saw that plugin and also this one figma.com/community/plugin/8434611...
Also found an article where he does it programatically medium.com/iadvize-engineering/fig...
