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 transition tokens and micro-interactions (button, input, link hover/focus)
- Implement reveal choreography on page load and scroll entrance
- Increase weight contrast in type ladder for heading hierarchy
