Commerly is an open, evolving design system made for eCommerce creators. This is the first public release - basically the baseline I’ll use to follow the changes and updates from here.

The goal isn’t a “final” system - but a base you can adapt to your product and keep moving.

This release is about two things: to make the file ready to publish, and to keep advancing the Foundation - starting with four updated color palettes: Neutral, Red, Orange, and Green.

First of all, I wanted v0.1.0 to feel like a solid public starting point. So a big part of this release is the “boring but important” work. Firstly, I cleaned up the file, removed things I don’t plan to use, then I structured the file, and added status labels across the system. It’s  not a "WOW" kind of update, but it makes future updates much easier to follow - for both you and me.

The biggest visible change is color rework. I changed the method of color palette creation, to avoid over darkened and hard-to-use shades and made the palettes more saturated and practical. The idea is that you can use every shade of palette for various UI scenarios. I also updated how palettes are presented in the file, so they’re easier to use and informative at the same time.

And finally, I added a quick "Getting started" section, a simple status/update policy, and a changelog page — so the system can keep evolving without turning into a mess over time.
