Supabase — Design System

light · modern · medium · tailwind · confidence 92%

Supabase is daylight engineering: a near-white #FCFCFC canvas, near-black ink, and one signature green (#72E3AD on the primary button) that always means 'go'. Manrope carries the whole site at medium weights — a 46px H1 that stays humble, 15px working text, tight 6px corners everywhere. Color is functional, not decorative: green for actions, gray for chrome, syntax colors only inside real code blocks. Sections breathe with generous whitespace while the content itself stays dense and technical. It reads like a database console that learned to breathe — bright, precise, quietly confident.

# Supabase — Design System

> light, modern, medium, tailwind

Supabase is daylight engineering: a near-white #FCFCFC canvas, near-black ink, and one signature green (#72E3AD on the primary button) that always means 'go'. Manrope carries the whole site at medium weights — a 46px H1 that stays humble, 15px working text, tight 6px corners everywhere. Color is functional, not decorative: green for actions, gray for chrome, syntax colors only inside real code blocks. Sections breathe with generous whitespace while the content itself stays dense and technical. It reads like a database console that learned to breathe — bright, precise, quietly confident.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FCFCFC` |
| surface | `#EEEEEE` |
| border | `#D9D9D9` |
| text | `#171717` |
| text_muted | `#6E6E6E` |
| primary | `#72E3AD` |
| accent | `#72E3AD` |
| link | `#50C896` |
| button_bg | `#72E3AD` |
| button_text | `#171717` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#72E3AD` — 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 `#72E3AD` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#72E3AD` — 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** `#50C896` — 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).

## Typography

- Heading: **Manrope**
- Body: **Manrope**

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 46px / 500 · lh 46px |
| h2 | 34px / 600 · lh 38px |
| h3 | 22px / 450 · lh 30px |
| body | 15px / 450 · lh 23px |
| small | 14px / 450 · lh 20px |

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