Your design system,
alive.
Basis is a workspace where you define, visualize, and export the tokens that hold your design language together — colors, type, spacing, motion, shadows. Edit on the left. See every component update on the right. Export clean code in four formats.
Design systems don't stay in sync
What's in Figma drifts from what's in code. What's in code drifts from what's documented. The people writing components don't have the tokens. The people writing docs don't have the latest values. Everyone's working from a different version of the truth.
Most tools treat design tokens as configuration — something to serialize and forget. DesignLoom treats them as a living system. Edit a color, watch every component reflect it. Save a named set. Export when you're ready.
A workspace built around the tokens that matter
Colors, typography, spacing, motion, and shadows — edit them all in one place, with live previews that show you exactly what you're building.
Color tokens
Define your palette with color pickers, hex inputs, and role labels. See contrast ratios. Organize by role — canvas, surface, text, brand, semantic.
Typography
Choose your display, body, and mono fonts from a curated set. Build a type scale with named sizes and weights. See every heading and body size rendered in the preview.
Spacing scale
Define your spacing scale as named values. See each step visualized. Use them consistently across every component in the preview.
Motion
Set durations and easing curves for your interaction language. Name them and use them consistently. Every component in the preview respects them.
Shadow stacks
Define named shadow values as full box-shadow declarations. See them applied to cards and components. Build depth that feels intentional.
Versioned sets
Save named token sets as you go. Switch between them. Compare. Each set is a snapshot of your design language at a point in time.
Clean code, in the format you need
When you're ready, export your token set in four formats. Each one reflects your current tokens exactly — no hand-editing required.
{
"colors": {
"accent": "#a0522d"
}
} module.exports = {
theme: { extend: {
colors: { 'accent': '#a0522d' }
}}
}; const theme = {
colors: { accent: '#a0522d' }
};
export default theme; Built for people who publish software
Software designers
You design software and you publish it. You care about the consistency of your interfaces and the integrity of your design language. DesignLoom gives you a single source of truth for the tokens that define it.
Design system owners
You maintain the tokens, the components, the documentation — and you're tired of them drifting out of sync. DesignLoom keeps them together. Edit once, see everywhere, export when ready.
Publishers and toolmakers
You ship tools and platforms with a design language that needs to hold together across versions. DesignLoom gives you versioned sets, clean exports, and previews that show you what you're building.
Anyone tired of drift
The Figma file doesn't match the code. The code doesn't match the docs. Basis is for people who want the whole system to agree on what a color, a size, a shadow actually is.
Stop managing tokens in three places
DesignLoom is a single, self-contained workspace. Open it, define your tokens, watch the preview update, export when you're ready. No setup, no framework lock-in, no serialization surprises.
