Decoded design system

Skyscanner Mobile's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #161616, accent #0062E3, link #0062E3, primary #0062E3; type scale h1 34px / h2 22px / body 17px; 8px spacing base; 12px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #0062E3 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #0062E3 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary, accent, link, button_bg are all #0062E3 — one role, not several (the action color).
• accent #0062E3 — 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.

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `div.px-inner-loading-area` @0ms

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

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 350px · 688px
- mobile (390px): hero 20px · 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.

Is this spec still current?

Skyscanner Mobile is re-measured from its live DOM every night — 16 measurements on record so far. The dated verdict (held, changed, or never settles) is on its drift ledger.
