Summary
Part of https://github.com/github/primer/issues/2097
While auditing the existing color tokens and renaming to align with the convention, I noticed a lot of duplication between component tokens primarily used for icon fg/bg color. This feels like a good opportunity to add presentation tokens to ensure consistency across icon color combinations.
An alternative solution here could be to add a new component to handle these common icon scenarios, and place these in the
icon
pattern. However, that leaves out patterns likeLabel
that use fg color similarly to icons.Feel free to check out this audit showing the minor differences that are flattened with this PR.
