About HarmonyOS
HarmonyOS is the operating system Huawei unveiled in Dongguan in 2019 and shipped on phones in 2021, built to carry one interface across phone, tablet, watch, car and TV. Its look is quiet and exact: a cool grey page, white cards with 24vp corners, navy text, and a single system blue for anything you can touch.
This system translates those OpenHarmony tokens for the web. Service widgets, grouped settings blocks, capsule buttons and the Super Device bubble map become the building blocks.
