Let users in Dev/View Mode see all local variables and style details

The title says it all.
In my team, only the designers has access to the edit version of the file, while the devs only use the view mode, so they don’t move anything by accident. The problem is that they can’t see the detailed list of local variables, and can’t see how is the design system working.
If we are making a design based on local variables, the devs should be able to see all variables because everything is based in the same data. This also applies to the styles, as they can’t see wich font a style has for example, wich I don’t think is very useful when developing an approved design.
