Gitpod — Design Score: 78/100 (grade B)
Strong colour & motion foundation, but body text runs too tight (1.12 line-height) and primary CTA contrast is weak (3.30:1)—users strain to read at scale.

What we measured
- Typography & Hierarchy — type ladder rhythm: 1.14× · 1.08× · 3.25× · 1.07× (21.3/35)
- Typography & Hierarchy — weight contrast: [300, 400, 500, 600, 700] (spread 400) (20.0/20)
- Typography & Hierarchy — body line-height: 1.12 (1.5/15)
- Typography & Hierarchy — heading line-height: 1.05 (10.0/10)
- Typography & Hierarchy — size discipline: 5 (20.0/20)
- Color & Contrast — body text contrast (WCAG): 19.27:1 (30.0/30)
- Color & Contrast — primary button contrast: 3.30:1 (5.9/10)
- Color & Contrast — accent discipline: 2 (20.0/20)
- Color & Contrast — surface coverage: 96% dominant (20.0/20)
- Color & Contrast — scheme consistency: light (10.0/20)
- Spacing & Layout — spacing grid: 4px grid · 62% confidence (21.7/35)
- Spacing & Layout — grid adherence: 7/12 on 4px (14.6/25)
- Spacing & Layout — structure & responsive: 2 breakpoints (15.0/15)
- Motion & Polish — motion tokens: 300ms dominant (25.0/25)
- Motion & Polish — choreography: 0 reveal candidates (10.0/20)
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
- Raise primary button contrast from 3.30:1 to ≥4.5:1 (WCAG AA minimum)
- Increase body text line-height from 1.12 to 1.4–1.5
- Strengthen grid adherence from 7/12 to ≥10/12 on the 4px base
