  1. Document structure

<imports>

The <imports> section allows UDML documents to reference and reuse external UDML files, typically to include shared tokens, styles, or components.

🧠 Purpose

To promote modularity, reuse, and consistent design across large projects by enabling shared design systems and libraries.

🛠 Syntax

<imports>
  <import src="https://cdn.example.com/tokens.udml"/>
</imports>

🧩 AI Interpretation Guidelines

  • Resolve all imports before interpreting the current document.

  • Merge tokens, styles, or components as needed.

  • Respect scope and naming to avoid conflicts.
