Is the this project deprecated?
I haven't fully taken the time to research other alternatives, but https://github.com/amzn/style-dictionary seems to be more active. I don't think it is a drop-in replacement for theo, however.

I am trying to find alternatives for the Amazon style-dictionary to explore other options. Any other options other than Amazon style-dictionary and Slaesforce Theo? Thanks!
@kiddkevin00 I'm evaluating https://github.com/Heydon/design-tokens-cli for the same reason(s) as I know Heydon's other work.

As far as I'm aware, Theo is basically abandoned. The original author no longer works at Salesforce, and no one I have spoken to at Salesforce has indicated there is any intention on updating or maintaining this project.
