# Unkey — Design System

> dark, modern, medium, tailwind

Unkey secures APIs in blackout: Articulat CF at 64px/400 white on #040406, Inter at 16px, and sharp zero-radius white buttons. Rate-limit dashboards and key-verification code samples glow against the void with thin keyline borders — developer security tooling with the visual temperature of a server room at night.

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#FFFFFF` — 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` are all `#ABAEBB` — one role, not several.
- **accent** `#ABAEBB` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **primary** `#9194A1` — ≈ the text color — a foreground/text color, not an action color (action = #FFFFFF).
- **secondary** `#3C83F6` — 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.
