Bolt — design system & UI screens
Pitch-black landing with a centered "What will you build today?" hero where "build" is set in an italic blue gradient, anchored by a large rounded prompt textarea ("Let's build an MVP for my") carrying a Standard model dropdown, Plan toggle, and a blue "Build now" send button. The signature element is the luminous arc of a planet's horizon — a bright cyan-white rim light curving across the lower hero behind the input — with "or import from Figma / GitHub" chips beneath. Below, a "Your company's design system, now in Bolt" section begins a row of rounded app-preview screenshots.

Decoded design system
Bolt's decoded design system: background #111114, text #ECECEE, accent #2BA6FF, link #2BA6FF, primary #1488FC; type scale h1 48px / h2 30px / body 16px; 4px spacing base; 6px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #1488FC — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.
