Inngest — Design System

dark · modern · high · tailwind · confidence 92% · deep decode

Inngest engraves reliability into the type itself: Whyte Inktrap at up to 115px — 'Unbreakable' with visible ink wells cut into every joint — over near-black #0C0A09, CircularXX at 18px for the engineering, and WhyteMono button labels. The inktrap detail at that scale reads as machined tolerance; durable execution sold through a typeface that looks stress-tested.

Tokens

Inngest's decoded design system: background #0C0A09, text #64748B, accent #FB5536, link #1E293B, primary #FB5536; type scale h1 115px / h2 64px / body 18px; 4px spacing base; 6px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #FB5536 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Inngest — Design System

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

Inngest engraves reliability into the type itself: Whyte Inktrap at up to 115px — 'Unbreakable' with visible ink wells cut into every joint — over near-black #0C0A09, CircularXX at 18px for the engineering, and WhyteMono button labels. The inktrap detail at that scale reads as machined tolerance; durable execution sold through a typeface that looks stress-tested.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#0C0A09` |
| surface | `#111010` |
| border | `#19191C` |
| text | `#64748B` |
| text_muted | `#424B59` |
| primary | `#FB5536` |
| accent | `#FB5536` |
| link | `#1E293B` |
| secondary | `#64748B` |
| button_bg | `#FB5536` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#FB5536` — 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 `#FB5536` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#FB5536` — 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** `#1E293B` — fails contrast on the background (~1.4:1) — this is a dark UI color, NOT a readable link; use the text or action color for links (verify against the reference).
- **secondary** `#64748B` — 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): `#1A1919` 43.2% · `#282727` 34% · `#0A0909` 15.1% · `#7C7372` 7.6%

## Typography

- Heading: **Whyte Inktrap** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **CircularXX** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Mono: **WhyteMonoV1** _(measured)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 115px / 400 · lh 94px · tracking -2.88px |
| h2 | 64px / 400 · lh 80px · tracking -0.64px |
| h3 | 36px / 400 · lh 54px |
| body | 18px / 400 · lh 27px · tracking -0.18px |
| small | 16px / 400 · lh 16px · tracking 0.8px |
| eyebrow | 12px / 600 · tracking 0.8px |

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

> **Fonts —** Whyte Inktrap may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts). CircularXX may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts).

## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 4px, 6px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 32px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 160px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 6px
- button: 6px
- card: 6px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#FFFFFF` / `#000000` | none | 6px | 0px 20px 0px 20px | 600 12px / 0.8px | rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 0px 0px 2px inset |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `#FFFFFF` | none | 6px | 0px 20px 0px 20px | 600 12px / 0.8px | rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 0px 0px 2px inset |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: box-shadow `none` · background `#FB5536` · color `#FFFFFF`
- primary focus: outline `1px auto rgb(255, 255, 255)`
- secondary hover: box-shadow `none` · background `#FB5536`
- transition: `background-color 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.8, 0.2, 1)`

## Shadows (elevation)
- subtle: `rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.4) 0px 0px 0px 1px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45) 0px 4px 18px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 300ms (dominant) · 200ms · 360ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.8, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`
- animated properties: opacity, background-color, color, 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.

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1440px · common grid: 2-col
- nav: 56px fixed

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 900 | 3 | — | 0/0 | — |
| 1025 | 720 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 1745 | 1611 | — | — | 160/160 | — |

| 4492 | 776 | 2 | 102 | 160/160 | 28/72 |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `div.relative` @0ms → `span.size-3`×2 @1ms → `span.v1-trusted-progress` @1ms → `path.v1-chart-line`×4 @1ms
- `span.size-3` ×2 — opacity 1→1 — 2000ms cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.6, 1) · loops
- stagger: `li` ×6 — 50ms apart
- scroll reveal: 16 elements rest at opacity 0, translateY(32px), animate in over 0.5s cubic-bezier(0.22, 0.61, 0.27, 1) (16 revealed during the drive).

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

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 640px · 768px · 1024px
- mobile (390px): hero 16px · 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.
