Gitpod — Design System

light · professional · medium · tailwind · confidence 92% · deep decode

Gitpod pairs a book serif with a Swiss grotesk: Martina Plantijn at 64px/300 gives 'The platform for...' an editorial gravitas, while ABC Diatype handles 16px body and translucent-white 8px-radius buttons. Ink #0A0E19 on soft paper, code panels framed like plates — cloud dev environments positioned as considered infrastructure, not another CI tool.

Tokens

Gitpod's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #0A0E19, accent #C41E3A, link #0A0E19, primary #397554; type scale h1 18px / h2 31px / body 17px; 4px spacing base; 4px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #C41E3A — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Gitpod — Design System

> light, professional, medium, tailwind — deep decode (measured live)

Gitpod pairs a book serif with a Swiss grotesk: Martina Plantijn at 64px/300 gives 'The platform for...' an editorial gravitas, while ABC Diatype handles 16px body and translucent-white 8px-radius buttons. Ink #0A0E19 on soft paper, code panels framed like plates — cloud dev environments positioned as considered infrastructure, not another CI tool.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F0F0F1` |
| border | `#DADADC` |
| text | `#0A0E19` |
| text_muted | `#676970` |
| primary | `#397554` |
| accent | `#C41E3A` |
| link | `#0A0E19` |
| secondary | `#C41E3A` |
| button_bg | `#C41E3A` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#C41E3A` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `accent`, `secondary`, `button_bg` are all `#C41E3A` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#C41E3A` — 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** `#397554` — a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #C41E3A, not this.
- **link** `#0A0E19` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#F9F9F9` 96.4% · `#64666D` 3.6%

## Typography


| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 64px / 300 · lh 67px · tracking -0.36px |
| h2 | 56px / 300 · lh 55px · tracking -1.12px |
| h3 | 52px / 300 · lh 55px · tracking -0.36px |
| body | 16px / 400 · lh 18px |
| small | 15px / 500 · lh 18px |
| eyebrow | 10px / 600 · tracking 2px |

- Weight ladder: 300 · 400 · 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, 6px, 7px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 24px, 32px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 59px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 4px
- button: 6px
- card: 12px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 3px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.85)` / `#0A0E19` | 1px solid rgba(206, 206, 206, 0.22) | 8px | 7px 10px 7px 10px | 400 16px | none |
| secondary | `#0A0E19` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgb(10, 14, 25) | 8px | 7px 10px 7px 10px | 400 18px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: border `1px solid rgb(232, 232, 232)` · background `#E8E8E8`
- primary focus: outline `2px solid rgb(10, 14, 25)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(26, 32, 48)` · background `#1A2030`
- transition: `background 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`

## Shadows (elevation)
- overlay: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.07) 0px 0px 120px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 300ms (dominant) · 200ms · 150ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `ease`
- animated properties: opacity, background-color, border-color, color

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1360px · common grid: 2-col

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `html.light` @0ms → `html.light` @0ms → `path`×16 @56ms → `g`×6 @56ms → `a.group`×48 @58ms → `span.pointer-events-none`×36 @59ms

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

## Components (measured)
- link: #0A0E19 · underline

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 640px · 768px · 1024px · 1200px · 1280px · 1536px
- mobile (390px): hero 14px · body 14px · 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.
