How to pick the right status type and use the appropriate icons and semantic colour tokens

Introduction

Status types define how the system communicates different kinds of messages. Each status type comes with a primary use case, icon, and set of semantic colour tokens.

This visual language is shared across Telescope’s feedback and status related components and helps users quickly understand a message’s meaning and respond accordingly. Use the icons and semantic tokens outlined below when none of Telescope’s components are a good fit and you need to create something custom.
