Tokens

ElectricSQL's decoded design system: background #111318, text #ECECEE, accent #56E8EA, link #75FBFD, primary #56E8EA; type scale h1 56px / h2 38px / body 20px; 4px spacing base; 8px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #56E8EA — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Role	Value
bg	`#111318`
surface	`#1E2024`
border	`#313338`
text	`#ECECEE`
text_muted	`#98999C`
primary	`#56E8EA`
accent	`#56E8EA`
link	`#75FBFD`
secondary	`#22C55E`
button_bg	`#56E8EA`
button_text	`#1A1A1A`

Using these colors

Action color #56E8EA — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
primary, accent, button_bg are all #56E8EA — one role, not several (the action color).
accent #56E8EA — 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.
link #75FBFD — inline text links and link-styled controls.
secondary #22C55E — 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.

# ElectricSQL — Design System

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

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#111318` |
| surface | `#1E2024` |
| border | `#313338` |
| text | `#ECECEE` |
| text_muted | `#98999C` |
| primary | `#56E8EA` |
| accent | `#56E8EA` |
| link | `#75FBFD` |
| secondary | `#22C55E` |
| button_bg | `#56E8EA` |
| button_text | `#1A1A1A` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#56E8EA` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `accent`, `button_bg` are all `#56E8EA` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#56E8EA` — 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.
- **link** `#75FBFD` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#22C55E` — 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): `#111318` 93.8% · `#4E5C5E` 6.2%

## Typography


| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 56px / 700 · lh 59px · tracking -1.12px |
| h2 | 42px / 600 · lh 44px · tracking -0.84px |
| h3 | 38px / 600 · lh 44px · tracking -0.57px |
| body | 17px / 500 · lh 27px |
| small | 16px / 400 · lh 26px |
| eyebrow | 11px / 400 · tracking 0.88px |

- Weight ladder: 400 · 450 · 500 · 600 · 700 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 2px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 14px, 20px, 24px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 80px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 8px
- button: 20px
- card: 12px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#56E8EA` / `#1A1A1A` | 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) | 20px | 0px 17px 0px 17px | 550 14px | none |
| secondary | `#22252F` / `rgba(235, 235, 245, 0.8)` | 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) | 8px | 0px 10px 0px 12px | 500 13.3333px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: background `#75FBFD`
- primary focus: outline `1px auto rgb(16, 16, 16)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(117, 251, 253)` · background `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.05)` · color `rgba(255, 255, 245, 0.92)`
- transition: `color 0.25s ease`

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 12px 32px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 2px 6px 0px`
- overlay: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.55) 0px 28px 60px -12px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.35) 0px 10px 22px -8px`

## Motion
- durations: 340ms (dominant) · 250ms · 200ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.65, 0, 0.35, 1)` (dominant) · `ease`
- animated properties: opacity, color, transform, border-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.csd-dot`×3 @0ms → `div.VPNavBar` @610ms → `span.title-suffix` @611ms → `div.why-loops-head` @667ms → `div.why-loops-head` @667ms → `article.why-card`×3 @667ms
- `div.hch-bridge` — opacity 0→0.55 — 800ms ease-in-out
- `span.csd-dot` ×3 — opacity 1→1 — 1600ms ease-in-out · loops
- scroll reveal: 40 elements rest at opacity 0, translateY(24px), animate in over 0.34s cubic-bezier(0.65, 0, 0.35, 1) (4 revealed during the drive).
- overlay dropdown (auto-opened): panel #22252F · r 12px · border 1px solid rgb(42, 45, 56) · shadow rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 12px 32px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 2px 6px 0px

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

## 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.
