UI Kernel brings design tokens to Symfony without Node
Symfinity's UI Kernel lets Symfony developers define design tokens in PHP and emit them as CSS custom properties, bypassing JavaScript build tools. It uses OKLCH color space for perceptually uniform palettes and supports progressive enhancement with sRGB fallbacks. The approach aims to standardize theming across Symfony projects without relying on Tailwind or custom CSS hacks.

This is a practical tool for Symfony shops, but its impact is limited to that ecosystem—not a broader industry shift.
