It seems like the variable exists but the bg css not

This is really strange, things load perfectly fine on my develop.element.io , both for light and dark theme.

That smells like a caching issue potentially? In the past this happened with the language files which is why they had a cachebuster hash attached. Not sure however if that even does something these days still

Edit: Even after forcefully removing the page cache and reloading this bug remains.

Not really, because the design tokens are included in there from the day where Element started using the new colour set.

In here, something makes them either not being applied, but i am yet to figure out what triggers this, continuing the conversation in https://matrix.to/#/#element-dev:matrix.org
