Pollen is a highly configurable library of CSS variables for your next design system. It lets you write faster, more consistent, and more maintainable styles.

Made and maintained with ❤️ by the fine people at Bokeh.

• Robust library of well-considered, style-agnostic CSS variables
• Fully configurable and extensible with CLI build tool
• Zero setup required to get started
• Responsive with configurable @media and @supports queries
• Lightweight, human-readable output if you ever want to move away from Pollen

Pollen's design tokens can be used to build any project. They're easy to customise and extend and they don't require preprocessors, class naming conventions, or non-standard syntax. Generate an entirely custom design system with a simple config file.

pollen.config.js

module.exports = (pollen) => ({
  output: "./pollen.css",
  modules: {
    ...pollen,
    color: {
      ...pollen.colors,
      bg: "white",
      text: "var(--color-black)",
    },
  },
  media: {
    "(prefers-color-scheme: dark)": {
      color: {
        bg: "var(--color-black)",
        text: "white",
      },
    },
  },
});
