# Butter Templates — Design System

> light, playful, medium, react

A cohesive open-source template design system — playful light theme with Outfit headings.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FDFBE4` |
| surface | `#EFEDD7` |
| border | `#DBD9C4` |
| text | `#1d1c11` |
| text_muted | `#727061` |
| primary | `#1d1c11` |
| accent | `#225BFF` |
| link | `#225BFF` |
| secondary | `#FFFFFF` |
| button_bg | `#225BFF` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#225BFF` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `accent`, `link`, `button_bg` are all `#225BFF` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#225BFF` — 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.
- **primary** `#1d1c11` — ≈ the text color — a foreground/text color, not an action color (action = #225BFF).
- **secondary** `#FFFFFF` — 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.

## Typography

- Heading: **Outfit**
- Body: **Outfit**
- h1: 27px
- h2: 22px
- body: 14px

> **Fonts —** Outfit — free, on Google.

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px
- scale: 2px, 4px, 6px, 8px, 12px, 16px, 24px, 32px

## Radius
- base: 8px
- button: 8px

## Primary button
- bg `#225BFF` · text `#FFFFFF` · radius 8px

## Motion
- durations: 125ms (dominant) · 300ms

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

## 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.
