real render · source of truth

vuejs.org is built on a pure-white canvas (rgb(255, 255, 255)). The system uses rgb(66, 184, 131) as the accent for primary actions and brand signals. Generously rounded CTAs (40px) suggest approachable, content-first design alongside Inter var experimental as the primary typeface. Inter var experimental is paired with Inter var for secondary roles. A restrained elevation system (2 distinct shadows) — shadows reserved for the few elements that must lift off the page. Motion is a first-class concern — 5 keyframe animations plus transition-driven interactions.

Do's & Don'ts

20 enforceable rules pulled verbatim from the spec

Do
Use Charcoal (`#213547`) for text — not pure black, it's warmer and more readable
Use Inter var experimental as the primary typeface — it defines the brand personality
Use negative letter-spacing (-1.5px) at display sizes for compressed, editorial headlines
Use the extracted shadow patterns for elevation — they are tuned to match the brand palette
Use #42b883 (`#42b883`) as the primary accent — it's the brand's signature interactive color
Use 40px border-radius on primary buttons — the brand uses generously-rounded CTAs
Maintain nav height at 55px — consistent vertical space for the navigation bar
Include exactly 4 CTAs in the hero (primary + secondary) — this design pattern is multi-action, not single-purpose
Each card includes a top image — imagery is part of the card identity, not optional
Use a 5-column grid on desktop — density matters for this content type
Don't
Don't use pure black (`#000000`) for text — the near-black adds warmth
Don't substitute with generic sans-serif or serif — the custom font carries the brand
Don't increase letter-spacing on headings — the type is designed to run tight at scale
Don't invent new shadow values — use only the extracted shadow levels
Don't introduce additional saturated accent colors — the palette is intentionally controlled
Don't use sharp-cornered or pill buttons — 40px is the CTA border-radius standard
Don't collapse or hide the nav on scroll without an explicit scroll-triggered animation — the design uses fixed nav presence
Don't make the nav sticky — this design lets it scroll away to maximize content focus
Don't put a CTA button in the nav — this design uses links only at the top
Don't over-build the footer — this design keeps it minimal (1 cols, 1 links)
