Decoded design system

Xata's decoded design system: background #09090B, text #ECECEE, accent #735ADC, link #FFFFFF, primary #272435; type scale h1 72px / h2 48px / body 14px; 8px spacing base; 0px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #09090B — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #09090B — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• accent #735ADC — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
• primary #272435 — a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #09090B, not this.
• link #FFFFFF — reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #09090B).
• secondary #060010 — 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.

# Xata — Design System

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

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#09090B` |
| surface | `#161618` |
| border | `#2B2B2D` |
| text | `#ECECEE` |
| text_muted | `#959597` |
| primary | `#272435` |
| accent | `#735ADC` |
| link | `#FFFFFF` |
| secondary | `#060010` |
| button_bg | `#09090B` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#09090B` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- **accent** `#735ADC` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **primary** `#272435` — a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #09090B, not this.
- **link** `#FFFFFF` — reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #09090B).
- **secondary** `#060010` — 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): `#09090B` 90.5% · `#4D4961` 9.5%

## Typography

- Heading: **GeistMono** _(free fallback: JetBrains Mono)_
- Body: **GeistMono** _(free fallback: JetBrains Mono)_
- Mono: **GeistMono**

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 72px / 600 · lh 72px · tracking -1.8px |
| h2 | 48px / 600 · lh 48px · tracking -1.2px |
| h3 | 30px / 400 · lh 36px |
| body | 14px / 400 · lh 20px |
| small | 13px / 500 · lh 19px |
| eyebrow | 14px / 600 · tracking 1.68px |

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

> **Fonts —** GeistMono may be proprietary — safe free fallback: JetBrains Mono (Google Fonts).

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 2px, 4px, 6px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 32px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 80px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 0px
- button: 6px
- card: 6px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 1px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `lab(100 0 0)` | none | 6px | 0px 10px 0px 10px | 500 12.8px | oklab(0.999994 0.0000455678 0.0000200868 / 0.25) 0px 1px 0px 0px inset, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, lab(100 0 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, oklab(0.141 0.00136173 -0.00480696 / 0.2) 0px 4px 6px -1px, oklab(0.141 0.00136173 -0.00480696 / 0.2) 0px 2px 4px -2px |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `lab(100 0 0)` | none | 8px | 0px 10px 0px 10px | 500 14px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- transition: `filter 0.2s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`

## Motion
- durations: 300ms (dominant) · 150ms · 2000ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `linear`
- animated properties: color, background-color, border-color, outline-color

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

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `span.inline-block`×9 @0ms → `div.flex`×16 @0ms → ``×2 @670ms
- `span.inline-block` ×9 — opacity 1→1 — 2000ms cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.6, 1) · loops
- scroll reveal: 5 elements rest at opacity 0, translateY(8px), animate in over 400ms (0 revealed during the drive).

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

## Responsive (measured)
- mobile (390px): hero 48px · 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.
