Convex — design system & UI screens
Convex is a backend framework for building full-stack applications with TypeScript, databases, and real-time APIs; developers use it to build and deploy scalable applications in minutes. The page uses a vertical stack of hero sections with alternating dark and light backgrounds: a hero with code editor mockup and split messaging layout, a testimonial section with abstract patterns, a feature section with 3D product imagery, developer testimonials in a grid, a framework integration section, and a final CTA section with footer.
This is a static, crawlable rendering for search & AI engines. The interactive version — filters, live decode console, copy & export — is at https://mozaika.design/website/convex.
Decoded design system
Convex's decoded design system: background #F6EEDB, text #141414, accent #DE5D33, link #444435, primary #F6EEDB; type scale h1 42px / h2 32px / body 18px; 4px spacing base; 0px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #DE5D33 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Using these colors
- Action color
#DE5D33— the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills. accent,button_bgare all#DE5D33— one role, not several (the action color).- accent
#DE5D33— THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed. - primary
#F6EEDB— a neutral UI color (chips, tags, icon fills, chrome), not the action color (action = #DE5D33). - link
#444435— inline text links and link-styled controls. - secondary
#ECE4D2— 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.
