Provide [[ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/WMUI/browse/master/wmui-base.less | WikimediaUI Base's base.less ]] in core to enable front-end developers to make use of basic cross-foundational design properties.
It contains agreed-on style values (background-colors/colors from color palette M82, font families, borders, opacities, box-shadows, from M101 etc.) that are part of [[ https://wikimedia.github.io/WikimediaUI-Style-Guide/ | Wikimedia Foundation user interface style guide ]] in order to provide a consistent interface regardless of what front-end framework / library contributors and developers are using.
What to accomplish:
- Provide one place for fundamental **design** properties shared in themes and extensions in order for possible design adaptions across Foundation products
- Provide standardized way for developers to make use of those fundamental design properties in the products, without caring about copying and comparing hex codes, pixel sizes and other stylesheet values.
