Decoded design system

Weights & Biases's decoded design system: background #1A1C1F, text #FFFFFF, accent #FCBC32, link #00AFC2, primary #00AFC2; type scale h1 72px / h2 54px / body 20px; 4px spacing base; 4px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #FFCC33 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #FFCC33 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary, link are all #00AFC2 — one role, not several (the action color).
• secondary, button_bg are all #FFCC33 — one role, not several (the action color).
• accent #FCBC32 — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.

# Weights & Biases — Design System

> dark, modern, medium, custom — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#1A1C1F` |
| surface | `#27292C` |
| border | `#3C3E40` |
| text | `#FFFFFF` |
| text_muted | `#A7A8A9` |
| primary | `#00AFC2` |
| accent | `#FCBC32` |
| link | `#00AFC2` |
| secondary | `#FFCC33` |
| button_bg | `#FFCC33` |
| button_text | `#000000` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#FFCC33` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `link` are all `#00AFC2` — one role, not several.
- `secondary`, `button_bg` are all `#FFCC33` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#FCBC32` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#1A1C1F` 66.9% · `#252E34` 14.2% · `#0C0D0E` 6.5% · `#323E43` 6.3%

## Typography

- Heading: **Source Serif 4** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **Source Sans 3** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 72px / 600 · lh 72px |
| h2 | 54px / 400 · lh 66px |
| h3 | 40px / 400 · lh 48px |
| body | 20px / 400 · lh 30px |
| small | 18px / 400 · lh 22px |
| eyebrow | 16px / 400 · tracking 0.96px |

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

> **Fonts —** Source Serif 4 may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts). Source Sans 3 may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts).

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 32px — snap all gaps/padding to these

## Radius
- base: 4px
- button: 2px
- card: 8px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 2px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#FFCC33` / `#000000` | 1px solid rgb(255, 204, 51) | 2px | 12px 10px 12px 10px | 600 13.008px / 0.13008px | none |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgb(173, 176, 181) | 8px | 15px 26px 15px 26px | 600 16px / 0.96px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary focus: outline `1px solid rgb(255, 255, 255)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(255, 255, 255)`
- transition: `all 0.3s ease`

## Shadows (elevation)
- subtle: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 2px 0px 0px`
- card: `rgba(10, 14, 21, 0.5) 0px 16px 16px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 300ms (dominant) · 400ms · 100ms
- easings: `ease` (dominant) · `ease-in-out`
- animated properties: transform, background, border, box-shadow

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

_…and 19 more measured on the page._

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 950px
- nav: 96px

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `button.e-n-tab-title`×10 @0ms → `svg`×4 @0ms → `svg`×5 @54ms → `svg`×40 @70ms → `button.cookie-setting-link` @405ms → `button.cookie-setting-link` @405ms
- `div.elementor-image-carousel` — transform translate3d(-1326px, 0px, 0px)→translate3d(-1515.43px, 0px, 0px) — 4000ms
- `svg` ×5 — opacity 0→1 — 500ms ease-in-out (delay 500ms)
- stagger: `svg` ×4 — 300ms apart

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

## Components (measured)
- link: #1A1C1F · no underline

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 576px · 600px · 768px · 992px · 1000px · 1280px
- mobile (390px): hero 43px · body 20px · 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.
