Charting the Next Step - Unify Design System 1.2!

Charts are officially part of the Unify system. This release brings adaptive, scalable charts with full token support, light and dark mode readiness, and predictable behavior across sizes and layouts. Built for real product data. Ready to be used.

This one has been in the works for a while - and we are excited to finally share it!

After shipping Unify across many different projects and putting it to work in real products, one thing became impossible to ignore: charts needed more love.

Why charts? Because they sit right at the center of modern products. Dashboards, analytics, reports, decision-making flows - charts are everywhere, and they carry some of the most important information in the interface. And yet, they are often treated as simple visuals.

In reality, charts need to adapt, scale, respond to layout changes, support light and dark modes, and stay readable as data grows.

It’s why, over the past weeks, we have been laying that foundation - and this update is the first step in making charts a first-class citizen inside Unify.

What’s included in this release

This release brings charts fully into the Unify system:

  • Support for Bar, Line, Area, and Pie / Donut charts

  • A new Level 4 token layer powering scalable, system-driven charts

  • A refreshed chart color palette (Levels 1–4) with built-in light and dark mode support

  • Defined properties per chart type for consistent behavior

  • Improved responsiveness and scaling across layouts

  • Structured size variants - sm, md, lg - for predictable use everywhere

Charts are now adaptive, scalable, and ready for real product data.

Built to be used

This update is about unlocking the full potential of Unify in real products.

Charts are now designed to scale, adapt, and stay consistent - so you can focus on building, exploring, and pushing your ideas further without fighting the system.

If you are already using Unify, this is your moment to go deeper.

If you are just getting started, there has never been a better time to explore what the system can really do.

Use it fully. Stretch it. Build with confidence.
