Design token collections, and AI-powered tokenization
Systematically build and maintain your design language - without starting over
Design systems are powerful - until they’re painful.
Managing tokens across light and dark modes, keeping component logic consistent, and syncing it all into production-ready code shouldn’t be a full-time job.
And yet, that’s exactly what we kept hearing from people - so we built something new.
Introducing Design Token Collections + AI-powered Tokenization
a way to extract, organize, and maintain your design tokens directly from existing work.
It’s here. And it’s system-aware, AI-native, and built for your real-world workflows.
Why we did it
From day one, Jux has been about rethinking the relationship between design and code - not just exporting one into the other, but blending them.
But here’s the thing: many of you didn’t just want to prototype or tweak. You wanted to migrate your actual design system into Jux - tokens, architecture, logic and all - without starting from scratch.
The blocker?
Manual token creation. Naming conventions. Theme variants. Light/Dark themes support.
Even with our AI and canvas already in place, token setup was friction. So we asked:
“What if Jux could do that for you?”
How we did it
The result is a new AI constraint mode in JuxAI, designed specifically for systematic token extraction.
Here’s how it works:
Tag components in your existing design
JuxAI detects token candidates: colors, spacing, typography, radii, etc.
It builds organized token collections - complete with mode variants (e.g. light/dark)
You review and approve, or tweak as needed
Your token system is now live, reusable, and consistent across your canvas
We also allow you to preserve existing token libraries. If you already have a system, you can prioritize existing tokens over new ones - ensuring your architecture stays intact.
Tokens then carry forward into code, powering live prototypes and reusable components via Jux MCP.
No duplication. No loss of context. No dev handoff nightmares.
Why it matters (for Jux and for you)
This unlocks the full potential of what we call AI-native design engineering.
It means:
You can bring your existing design system into Jux without compromise.
You can build net-new systems directly in the editor, and trust they’ll scale.
Tokens are no longer a blocker - they’re an asset that powers design and code in sync.
Prototypes aren’t throwaway - they’re production candidates, enriched by your system.
For us, it’s a step toward a bigger vision for Jux:
A single environment where design and development speak the same language, and where systems grow organically through use - not documentation.
For you, it’s a chance to stop treating tokens like overhead, and start treating them like infrastructure.
We’re just getting started, and you can:
