A design system
that proves itself.

Cedar is a token-based design system with a Figma source of truth, a React component library, and a real-world PWA built on top of it. This site is itself a Cedar artifact — every color, space, and radius you see is a Cedar token.

One source of truth, everywhere

Every value in Cedar lives as a Figma variable first, then surfaces as a CSS custom property. Primitives → Semantic → Component. The chain is never broken.
