What is Diez and how does it work? Diez is a developer toolkit designed for enterprises that is open-source. It allows users to express their visual styles using its design language framework. This toolkit helps reduce the cost of maintaining a consistent visual identity for all web portals and apps associated with a brand. The visual styles developed can be easily shared across different codebases, teams, and native platforms. Diez consists of three main components: the design language framework, the native cross-platform compiler, and the design file extractor. With the help of TypeScript, users can create design tokens and integrate them into scalable collections of themes, styles, and visual guidelines. By using code, users can ensure brand identity consistency and minimize the risk of human errors. Diez offers a user-friendly interface for customizing various design elements such as colors, typography, layout, style, theme, border radii shadows, gradients, and more, simply by dragging and dropping. The Diez Extractors assemble the design files into the TypeScript of the app. Diez is optimized for native-developer systems, allowing users to create native libraries for any device or platform and integrate them into existing or new codebases.
