Plausible practices what privacy preaches: zero webfonts — system-ui at 48px/800 in navy #161E2E on grey #F9FAFB — one indigo #5850EC button at 6px radius, and a live analytics dashboard as the only hero. The no-tracking, no-bloat ethos extends to the type stack itself; the landing page's restraint IS the product spec.

# Plausible — Design System

> light, professional, medium, tailwind

Plausible practices what privacy preaches: zero webfonts — system-ui at 48px/800 in navy #161E2E on grey #F9FAFB — one indigo #5850EC button at 6px radius, and a live analytics dashboard as the only hero. The no-tracking, no-bloat ethos extends to the type stack itself; the landing page's restraint IS the product spec.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#F9FAFB` |
| surface | `#ECEDEF` |
| border | `#D9DBDE` |
| text | `#252F3F` |
| text_muted | `#757C86` |
| primary | `#252F3F` |
| accent | `#5850EC` |
| link | `#5850EC` |
| secondary | `#161E2E` |
| button_bg | `#5850EC` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#5850EC` — 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 `#5850EC` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#5850EC` — 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** `#252F3F` — ≈ the text color — a foreground/text color, not an action color (action = #5850EC).
- **secondary** `#161E2E` — 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.

section to its spec — verify every color, radius, and font against these tokens.
