Description

Currently, our color system is a mess: we have many different references for the same color (duplicated), colors that are only used for one component, numerous colors for a same screen... The aim is unifying all of these colors in a single color palette. For this, we want to migrate to Material Design, on its latest version, Material 3 (https://m3.material.io/). This design system provides a color system that allows a better management of the different colors in the app.

Several things to take into account here:

  • Take into account brandable colors throughout all the process, this will affect the way we brand customer apps
  • Try to reduce the number of colors in the vanilla app to the minimum
  • Old issue: https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/3374

In this spike we'll research how to do this, if it is actually feasible and if needed, a PoC.
