# Design Brief: Soft & Friendly (with Gradient Glow)

Warm low-saturation pastels, generous rounded corners, and approachable illustrations.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #1b0f23;
  --surface: #f3f0f7;
  --foreground: #f8f5f8;
  --muted-foreground: #c9bdce;
  --accent: #ff5030;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Segoe UI Symbol", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Segoe UI Symbol", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #1B0F23 (~69%) · Surface #F3F0F7 (~17%) · Text #F8F5F8 (~7%) · Muted Text #C9BDCE (~4%) · Accent #FF5030 (~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: Dark · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension · Trust bar uses Live Generated Output Showcase
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Custom Illustration
- Spatial layout notes: Headline Over Large Product Shot hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and live generated output showcase.
- Visual summary: Soft & Friendly (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring headline over large product shot layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.

## Avoid

- Harsh pure-black backgrounds
- Sharp 0px corners
- Cold technical jargon in hero copy

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.
