# DEV IN THE HOOD Design System

## Overview

DEV IN THE HOOD describes itself as: “Full-stack developer in Luxembourg. Symfony platforms, API-first architectures, e-commerce and front-end motion work.” The interface is light, built on **Warm Mist (#F4F1EA)** with **Warm Charcoal (#16130F)** text, and **Vivid Red (#EA1D0F)** as the main accent.

Type is set in **Archivo**, with **JetBrains Mono** for code. Headlines run large; body text is compact. Depth comes from hairline borders and inset highlights rather than drop shadows. Corners are mostly 100px.

Measured from [devinthehood.com](https://devinthehood.com/) on November 6, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 304 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Colors

The palette has 14 roles, plus gradient stops #EA1D0F.

- **Warm Mist (#F4F1EA):** Page background, seen 10 times. Token `background`, CSS `--bg`.
- **Warm Charcoal (#16130F):** Primary text and headings, seen 17 times. Token `on-surface`, CSS `--ink`.
- **Warm Graphite (#4A443C):** Secondary text, seen 4 times. Token `on-surface-variant`, CSS `--ink-2`.
- **Warm Slate (#6F685D):** Muted text and metadata, seen 4 times. Token `on-surface-muted`, CSS `--ink-3`.
- **Blue (#8D96A6):** Subtle text and placeholders, seen 4 times. Token `on-surface-subtle`, CSS `--dim`.
- **Warm Mist (#EAE6DD):** Raised areas one step from the page, seen 7 times. Token `surface-container-low`, CSS `--bg-2`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Cards and panels, seen 6 times. Token `surface-container`.
- **Light Amber (#DED8CC):** Hover and pressed fills, seen 11 times. Token `surface-container-high`, CSS `--bg-3`.
- **Warm Charcoal 6% (#16130F0F):** Borders and dividers, seen 6 times. Token `outline`, CSS `--line-2`.
- **Warm Charcoal 14% (#16130F24):** Secondary dividers, seen 5 times. Token `outline-variant`, CSS `--line`.
- **Vivid Red (#EA1D0F):** Primary buttons and calls to action, seen 46 times. Token `primary`, CSS `--red`.
- **Warm Mist (#F4F1EA):** Text and icons on primary. Token `on-primary`.
- **Orange (#FFB547):** Accent in text, fills and borders, seen 26 times. Token `secondary`, CSS `--amber`.
- **Red (#C2160A):** Errors and destructive states, seen 6 times. Token `error`, CSS `--red-ink`.

## Typography

**Archivo** and **JetBrains Mono** (monospace) share the interface. Fallback stack: `Archivo, Helvetica Neue, helvetica, arial`.

- **headline-display:** Archivo 63.5px at weight 700, line height 0.92, uppercase (32px on mobile). Page title (h1).
- **headline-lg:** Archivo 49px at weight 700, line height 0.95, tracking -0.01em, uppercase (24px on mobile). Section headings (h2).
- **headline-md:** Archivo 44.5px at weight 400, line height 1, tracking 0.02em. Sub-section headings.
- **headline-sm:** Archivo 37px at weight 400, line height 1.04. Card and feature titles.
- **title-lg:** Archivo 34px at weight 700, line height 1.55 (30px on mobile). Small titles.
- **label-md:** Archivo 17px at weight 400, line height 1.55. Buttons, navigation and labels.
- **code:** JetBrains Mono 11px at weight 400, line height 1.55, tracking 0.16em, uppercase. Code and technical values.

## Layout

Spacing does not follow a strict grid: 21% of measured values are multiples of 4px, so match the measured steps rather than rounding to a grid.

- **Scale:** xs 2.2px, sm 5.4px, md 10.4px, lg 24.83px, xl 48.96px.
- **Sections:** 128px vertical padding between major sections.
- **Gaps:** 10.4px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Container:** content is capped at 1680px.
- **Page margin:** 48.96px on each side of full-width sections.
- **Breakpoints:** 560px, 860px.

## Elevation & Depth

Depth comes mostly from hairline rings and inset highlights on tonal surfaces (#EAE6DD → #FFFFFF → #DED8CC):

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.18) 0px 7.2px 0px 0px inset`

A few raised panels add a soft drop shadow: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0px 10px 20px -10px`.

## Shapes

Most elements use 100px corners. Measured radii, most used first:

- **md (100px):** 24 elements.
- **sm (4px):** 4 elements.
- **full (9999px):** 4 elements.

## Components

Measured from the rendered page. Token values reference the tokens above.

- **button-primary (“INDEX”):** #EA1D0F fill, #F4F1EA text, 11px/400, padding 5.6px 0px.
- **button-secondary (“CONTACT”):** #EA1D0F fill, #8D96A6 text, 11px/400, padding 5.6px 0px.
- **button-secondary-hover:** background #EA1D0F, text #F4F1EA on hover.
- **button-outline (“SKIP THE STORY”):** transparent fill, #FFFFFF text, 11px/400, 100px radius, padding 11.2px 16.8px, border 1px solid #FFFFFF.
- **button-ghost (“01 WEB PLATFORMS”):** transparent fill, #16130F text, 17px/400, padding 19.2px 0px 19.2px 16px.
- **link:** transparent fill, #FFFFFF text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #F4F1EA for the page and lift surfaces in small steps: #EAE6DD, #FFFFFF, #DED8CC.
- Do keep text in 4 levels: #16130F, #4A443C, #6F685D, #8D96A6.
- Do reserve #EA1D0F for primary actions and key highlights.
- Do reuse the measured spacing steps (5.4px, 10.4px, 24.83px).
- Do use 100px corners on most elements; larger surfaces also use 4px.
- Don't use #8D96A6 for body text; it reaches 2.64:1 on #F4F1EA. Keep it for large text or metadata.
- Don't use heavy drop shadows; keep depth to hairline rings and tonal surfaces.
- Don't introduce new font families beyond Archivo and JetBrains Mono.
- Don't use #EA1D0F for large backgrounds or body text.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.5s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.35s, 0.45s, 0.3s, 0.5s. Longer ambient animations run 1.6s, 2.3s, 1.1s.

- **Easing:** `cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1)`, `ease`.
- **Reduced motion:** the page responds to `prefers-reduced-motion`.
