Coda — Design Score: 84/100 (grade B)
Typography and color are locked in (96/86), but motion feels bare (68) — no reveal choreography means interactions feel inert despite 150ms timing.

Every line above is read from the live DOM — the exact contrast ratio, the detected spacing grid, the forced hover states — not an AI's guess from a screenshot.
Top fixes
- Add entrance animations to hero, feature cards, and form elements
- Implement dark mode with inverted contrast ratios and shadow roles
- Expand CSS tokenization from 3 to 12+ custom properties
