Decoded design system

Audible Mobile's decoded design system: background #010D19, text #FFFFFF, accent #010D19, link #010D19, primary #010D19; type scale h1 48px / h2 36px / body 16px; 8px spacing base; 12px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #010D19 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #010D19 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary, accent, link, button_bg are all #010D19 — one role, not several (the action color).
• accent #010D19 — THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed.

# Audible Mobile — Design System

> dark, consumer, high — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#010D19` |
| surface | `#101B26` |
| border | `#27313B` |
| text | `#FFFFFF` |
| text_muted | `#9EA3A7` |
| primary | `#010D19` |
| accent | `#010D19` |
| link | `#010D19` |
| button_bg | `#010D19` |
| button_text | `#010D19` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#010D19` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `accent`, `link`, `button_bg` are all `#010D19` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#010D19` — THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#000000` 34% · `#04101A` 18.4% · `#FFFFFF` 14.7% · `#151F29` 11.6%

## Typography

- Heading: **Audible Sans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **Audible Sans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 48px / 700 · lh 52px |
| h2 | 36px / 700 · lh 42px |
| h3 | 24px / 700 · lh 28px |
| body | 16px / 600 · lh 22px |
| small | 14px / 600 · lh 18px |

- Weight ladder: 400 · 600 · 700 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

> **Fonts —** Audible Sans may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts).

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 8px, 10px, 15px, 48px, 50px — snap all gaps/padding to these

## Radius
- base: 12px
- button: 12px
- sharp: 1px

## Primary button
- bg `#010D19` · text `#010D19` · radius 12px

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.15) 2px 2px 4px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 500ms (dominant)
- easings: `ease-in-out` (dominant) · `ease`
- animated properties: margin-bottom

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

## Their own tokens (verbatim from :root)

| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| `--adbl-primary-fill` | `#010e19` |
| `--adbl-secondary-fill` | `#1e344d` |
| `--adbl-tertiary-fill` | `#304864` |
| `--adbl-quaternary-fill` | `#4a6687` |
| `--adbl-inverse-fill` | `#ffffff` |
| `--adbl-inverse-tertiary-fill` | `#c0d2e9` |
| `--adbl-brand-fill` | `#702b00` |
| `--adbl-midnight-fill` | `#010e19` |
| `--adbl-attention` | `#aa0000` |
| `--adbl-attention-hover` | `#d31010` |
| `--adbl-success` | `#26822c` |
| `--adbl-caution` | `#c38d00` |

_…and 94 more measured on the page._

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

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `svg.spin`×2 @0ms → `div` @1208ms → `div.adbl-page` @1208ms
- `?` — opacity 1→0 — 500ms ease-in-out (delay 500ms)
- `div.adbl-page` — opacity 1→0 — 500ms ease-in-out (delay 500ms)

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

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 500px · 610px · 768px · 960px · 1024px · 1280px
- mobile (390px): body 14px · nav: inline

## 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.
