Hasura — Design System

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

Hasura (now PromptQL-era) keeps GraphQL infrastructure in Archivo at 40px/500 with Inter at 14-24px, zero-radius text CTAs, and schematic diagrams in its signature blue-green. The page reads like well-organized API docs — data access tooling that trusts architecture diagrams over adjectives.

Tokens

Hasura's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #121212, accent #1863DC, link #ACB7D4, primary #1863DC; type scale h1 40px / h2 40px / body 18px; 4px spacing base; 8px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #1863DC — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Hasura — Design System

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

Hasura (now PromptQL-era) keeps GraphQL infrastructure in Archivo at 40px/500 with Inter at 14-24px, zero-radius text CTAs, and schematic diagrams in its signature blue-green. The page reads like well-organized API docs — data access tooling that trusts architecture diagrams over adjectives.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F0F0F0` |
| border | `#DBDBDB` |
| text | `#121212` |
| text_muted | `#6C6C6C` |
| primary | `#1863DC` |
| accent | `#1863DC` |
| link | `#ACB7D4` |
| secondary | `#000615` |
| button_bg | `#1863DC` |
| button_text | `#F4F4F4` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#1863DC` — 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 `#1863DC` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#1863DC` — 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** `#ACB7D4` — fails contrast on the background (~2.0:1) — this is a dark UI color, NOT a readable link; use the text or action color for links (verify against the reference).
- **secondary** `#000615` — 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): `#F5F5F5` 63.1% · `#ACB7D4` 20.9% · `#C7E4D7` 6.6% · `#A4E3B0` 5.7%

## Typography

- Heading: **Inter**
- Body: **Inter**
- Mono: **__JetBrains_Mono_3c557b** _(measured)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 40px / 300 · lh 44px · tracking -1.92px |
| h2 | 28px / 600 · lh 42px · tracking -0.84px |
| h3 | 24px / 400 · lh 36px · tracking -0.84px |
| body | 12px / 400 · lh 16px |

- Weight ladder: 300 · 400 · 500 · 600 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

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

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 6px, 8px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 17px, 18px, 24px, 27px, 40px — snap all gaps/padding to these

## Radius
- base: 8px
- button: 2px
- card: 6px
- sharp: 2px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#3B5CA0` / `#FFFFFF` | 2px solid rgb(59, 92, 160) | 2px | 8px 27px 8px 27px | 500 14px | none |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `#030712` | 1px solid rgb(3, 7, 18) | 40px | 6px 14px 6px 14px | 400 14px / -0.28px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary focus: outline `2px solid rgb(24, 99, 220)`
- secondary hover: background `#030712` · color `#FFFFFF`

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 2px 6px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 150ms (dominant) · 300ms
- easings: `linear` (dominant) · `ease-in-out`

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

## Their own tokens (verbatim from :root)

| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| `--radius` | `0.5rem` |

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

## Layout (measured)
- nav: 60px

## Motion choreography (measured)
- overlay dialog (auto-opened): panel #FFFFFF · r 6px

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

## Components (measured)
- input: h 48px · r 8px · border 1px solid rgba(222, 222, 222, 0.2) · bg rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) · placeholder #6B7280
  - focus ring: `2px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` — this exact construction, don't invent your own
- link: #1863DC · underline

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 352px · 400px · 425px · 576px · 600px · 768px
- mobile (390px): hero 32px · body 16px · 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.
