Faye Xiao enhanced the Skyscanner/backpack-foundations repository by introducing a new Surface Tint color token to support both day and night themes. She implemented this feature using JavaScript, TypeScript, and SCSS, defining surfaceTintDay and surfaceTintNight with a semi-transparent white value to ensure accessible contrast and consistent theming. Her work centralized surface tint definitions across multiple file formats, improving design-system maintainability and laying the groundwork for dynamic theming in Skyscanner apps. By focusing on token management and frontend development, Faye addressed the need for flexible, scalable theming, and her contribution reduced future maintenance while supporting design-system consistency across platforms.
