Decoded design system

Airbyte's decoded design system: background #000000, text #FFFFFF, accent #4C1057, link #A299FF, primary #5D51D5; type scale h1 65px / h2 42px / body 15px; 4px spacing base; 8px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #5653D9 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #5653D9 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary #5D51D5, button_bg #5653D9 are visually the same color (Δ13) — treat as one role (the action color).
• accent #4C1057 — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
• link #A299FF — inline text links and link-styled controls.
• secondary #695EDF — optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#5653D9` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary` `#5D51D5`, `button_bg` `#5653D9` are visually the same color (Δ13) — treat as one role (your action color).
- **accent** `#4C1057` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **link** `#A299FF` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#695EDF` — optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#000000` 69.5% · `#202020` 15.6% · `#31303A` 8.2% · `#6C67B1` 6.8%

## Typography

- Heading: **Booton Hero** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **Booton** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Mono: **Fragmentmono** _(measured)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 65px / 500 · lh 68px · tracking -3.25px |
| h2 | 42px / 500 · lh 53px · tracking -2.1px |
| h3 | 24px / 500 · lh 31px · tracking -0.24px |
| body | 15px / 400 · lh 23px · tracking -0.17px |
| small | 14px / 500 · lh 16px · tracking -0.28px |

- Weight ladder: 400 · 500 · 600 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 2px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 13px, 16px, 20px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 96px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 8px
- button: 8px
- card: 8px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 2px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#5653D9` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgb(86, 83, 217) | 8px | 8px 16px 8px 16px | 500 13px / -0.17px | none |
| secondary | `#000000` / `#A299FF` | 1px solid rgb(162, 153, 255) | 8px | 8px 16px 8px 16px | 500 13px / -0.17px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: border `1px solid rgb(54, 60, 125)` · background `#363C7D`
- primary focus: outline `2px solid rgb(162, 153, 255)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(255, 255, 255)` · color `#FFFFFF`
- transition: `border-color 0.15s ease`

## Motion
- durations: 150ms (dominant) · 250ms · 500ms
- easings: `ease` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1)`
- animated properties: color, background-color, border-color, opacity

Micro-interactions use the dominant duration + easing; nothing on the page animates slower than the longest duration above — don't invent springier motion.

Prefer these names when extending their system — it's the brand's actual vocabulary.

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1230px · common grid: 2-col
- nav: 110px fixed · bg rgba(221, 221, 221, 0)

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1260 | 703 | — | — | 180/100 | — |
| 1963 | 2066 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 4029 | 759 | — | — | 115/115 | — |
| 4144 | 529 | 2 | 72 | 0/0 | — |
| 4788 | 1357 | — | — | 80/80 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
- stagger: `div` ×5 — 70ms apart
- scroll reveal: 1 elements rest at opacity 0, translateY(49px), animate in over 750ms (0 revealed during the drive).
- overlay dialog (auto-opened): panel #000000 · r 14px · border 1px solid rgba(202, 199, 255, 0.22) · shadow rgba(26, 25, 77, 0.12) 0px 4px 6px 0px, rgba(7, 7, 43, 0.45) 0px 16px 40px 0px

Rebuild the timeline, not just the durations — order, delays and staggers above are the choreography.

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 768px
- mobile (390px): hero 36px · body 16px · nav: hamburger

## How to apply
Paste the Tailwind `@theme` (or CSS variables) as your base, then build each
section to its spec — verify every color, radius, and font against these tokens.
Hover/focus states, shadows and motion timings above are measured from the live page — match them exactly, don't re-guess them.
