Hey, I built Debut because I wanted Screen Studio's polish without the price tag. It does smooth cursor animations, automatic zoom effects, and clean exports: basically the stuff that makes screen recordings look professional without hours in a video editor. $25 lifetime for personal use, works on 2 devices. Would love feedback, especially from anyone who's

# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome

Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #ffffff;
  --surface: #0b1730;
  --foreground: #0a1f33;
  --muted-foreground: #8a919c;
  --accent: #0a1f33;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Figtree", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Figtree", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #FFFFFF (~72%) · Surface #0B1730 (~12%) · Text #0A1F33 (~8%) · Muted Text #8A919C (~5%) · Accent #0A1F33 (~3%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Headline Over Large Product Shot
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Airy
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Start Free / Sign Up
- Headline hook: Pain Relief & Replacement
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Interactive Hero Tool
- Spatial layout notes: Headline Over Large Product Shot hero structure paired with start free / sign up CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Minimal Monochrome (Light canvas, airy density) featuring headline over large product shot layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.

## Avoid

- Multi-stop neon gradients
- Heavy drop shadows
- More than one competing accent color

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
