@Edward Byun

  • Mobile: what multi-tenant might look like for mobile apps

    • Dynamic themes?

      • How to handle colors in mobile app - right now all mobile colors are custom and don’t pull from Paragon at all

        • How to shift mobile app to use Paragon colors (with dark and light modes)

      • Respect prefers dark/light browser/system settings?

        • How to allow users to switch between dark/light in MFEs

  • @Jesse Stewart Font size settings & reduced motion

    • How does respecting those browser settings tie in to tokens/themes

    • What does this look like for native apps?

  • Color storage

    • @Jesse Stewart Better to store as HSL instead of HEX to allow for alpha setting

    • @Edward Byun how does using alpha values for disabled buttons tie in with existing color levels

  • @Max Frank Supporting consumers of Paragon that have custom themes but no dark mode for their theme yet

    • @Brian Smith Just allow overriding dark and light with the same custom theme?

  • More variants?

    • Paragon now supports changing themes at runtime because of CSS variables, what variants should we have?

      • @Jesse Stewart High Contrast (both Dark and Light HC modes) are important to support

  • High Contrast

    • @Kevin Blemel Would changing how we store colors (in our current light variant) negatively impact users that rely on extensions such as Dark Reader for contrast?





@Marco Morales

  • Shared design collateral?

    • Updates from Figma on allowing users from multiple orgs to collaborate on one file?
