250116 - New motion tokens

[ratinsl]

Description

We are introducing our first set of motion tokens! The purpose of these tokens is for us to reference how and when to use motion, as well as what specific tokens to use for motion behaviors across the experience to support a variety of upcoming projects and frameworks. They are split up into two sections consisting of easing and duration.

Once tokens are available, it will allow us to reference them for components, patterns, and transitions across platforms.

Here is the playbook motion tokens page. Please note, we are still working on adding the token motion.duration.instant to this page.

Motion Easing Tokens:

• motion.easing.standard - (.3, 0, 0, 1)
• motion.easing.quick.enter - (0, 0, 0, 1)
• motion.easing.quick.exit - (1, 0 ,0, 1)
• motion.easing.soft.enter - (0, 0, .7, 1)
• motion.easing.soft.exit - (.3, 0, 1, 1)
• motion.easing.continuous - (.3, 0, .7, 1)
• motion.easing.bounce - (.3, 0, 0, 1.5)
• motion.easing.linear - (0, 0, 1, 1)

Motion Duration Tokens:

• motion.duration.instant - (17ms)
• motion.duration.short.1 - (50ms)
• motion.duration.short.2 - (83ms)
• motion.duration.short.3 - (167ms)
• motion.duration.medium.1 - (250ms)
• motion.duration.medium.2 - (333ms)
• motion.duration.medium.3 - (500ms)
• motion.duration.long.1 - (667ms)
• motion.duration.long.2 - (883ms)
• motion.duration.long.3 - (1000ms)

Please let us know if you have any questions!

Can we have another column which specifies the timing function used for each of the values?

@agliga we'll chat more about this in next week's DS/Web sync and learn more on how we can improve the specs!
