Decoded design system

Linktree's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #1E2330, accent #D2E823, link #676B5F, primary #E9C0E9; type scale h1 80px / h2 56px / body 18px; 4px spacing base; 0px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #1E2330 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #1E2330 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• accent, secondary are all #D2E823 — one role, not several (the action color).
• accent #D2E823 — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
• primary #E9C0E9 — a neutral UI color (chips, tags, icon fills, chrome), not the action color (action = #1E2330).
• link #676B5F — reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #1E2330).

# Linktree — Design System

> light, modern, medium, tailwind — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F1F1F2` |
| border | `#DDDEDF` |
| text | `#1E2330` |
| text_muted | `#73767E` |
| primary | `#E9C0E9` |

| link | `#676B5F` |
| secondary | `#D2E823` |
| button_bg | `#1E2330` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#1E2330` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `accent`, `secondary` are all `#D2E823` — one role, not several.
- **accent** `#D2E823` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **primary** `#E9C0E9` — a neutral UI color (chips, tags, icon fills, chrome), not the action color (action = #1E2330).
- **link** `#676B5F` — reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #1E2330).
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#D2E823` 33.2% · `#FDFDF9` 23.1% · `#5D5D37` 16.7% · `#D4D18B` 10.3%

## Typography

- Heading: **linksans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **linksans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 80px / 800 · lh 86px · tracking -1.6px |
| h2 | 56px / 700 · lh 59px · tracking -1.12px |
| h3 | 28px / 500 · lh 36px · tracking -0.28px |
| body | 18px / 400 · lh 27px · tracking -0.36px |
| small | 16px / 500 · lh 24px |

- Weight ladder: 400 · 500 · 700 · 800 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

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

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 4px, 6px, 8px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 24px, 26px, 36px, 48px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 128px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 0px
- button: 9999px
- card: 42px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#1E2330` / `#FFFFFF` | none | 9999px | 0px 26px 0px 26px | 400 16px / 0.16px | none |
| secondary | `#E9C0E9` / `#1E2330` | none | 9999px | — | — | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: background `#262D3E`
- transition: `background-color 0.15s cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1)`

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(1, 1, 63, 0.1) 0px 2px 19px -4px`

## Motion
- durations: 150ms (dominant) · 700ms · 200ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1)`
- animated properties: transform, background-color, translate, scale

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 1504px · common grid: 2-col
- nav: 0px

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 64 | 911 | 2 | 64 | 302/230 | — |
| 975 | 827 | 2 | 64 | 128/128 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `div.absolute` @0ms
- `div.absolute` — transform translateY(0px)→translateY(-616px) — 30000ms ease-in-out · loops
- scroll reveal: 7 elements rest at opacity 0, animate in over 30000ms (0 revealed during the drive).

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

## Components (measured)
- input: h 60px · r 8px · bg #FFFFFF · placeholder oklab(0.562378 0.0000257194 0.0000112355 / 0.5)
  - focus ring: `2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255)` — this exact construction, don't invent your own

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 480px · 768px · 992px · 1280px · 1440px
- mobile (390px): hero 37px · body 16px · 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.
