# Design Brief: Dark Developer (with Retro & Nostalgic)

Deep dark surfaces, monospace typography, terminal/code snippets, and high-precision borders.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #000000;
  --surface: #111111;
  --foreground: #ffffff;
  --muted-foreground: #9a9a9a;
  --accent: #4c8dff;
  --radius: 0px;
  --font-heading: "JetBrains Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
  --font-body: "JetBrains Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
  --font-mono: "JetBrains Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #000000 (~78%) · Surface #111111 (~8%) · Text #FFFFFF (~8%) · Muted Text #9A9A9A (~4%) · Accent #4C8DFF (~2%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D
- Navigation: Left App Sidebar
- Theme & density: Dark · Airy
- Border radius & elevation: Sharp; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Code Block / Terminal / CLI
- Conversion CTA: Direct Input / Instant Try
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Code & Terminal, Interactive Hero Tool
- Spatial layout notes: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D hero structure paired with direct input / instant try CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Dark Developer (Dark canvas, airy density) featuring full-bleed canvas / video / 3d layout and code block / terminal / cli visuals.

## Avoid

- Warm pastel backgrounds
- Playful cartoon illustrations
- Oversized pill buttons everywhere

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.
