Exporting tokens is the easy part. What comes out the other side often needs work before it's useful in production, and most teams hit the same friction points getting there.

In this session, Principle Design Advocate, Luke Murphy covers where Style Dictionary fits in a modern token pipeline, why teams choose it over direct outputs, and the transforms you'll actually reach for: naming, units, references, platform formats. They'll share the gotchas, keep things practical, and finish with a checklist for getting reliable, code-ready token outputs every time.

**What you'll learn**

*   Why most teams need a transform step rather than direct outputs
*   When Style Dictionary is the right choice versus a custom script
*   The common transforms to plan for and why each exists
*   Real-world gotchas and how to avoid them
