# Discord Design System

## Overview

Discord describes itself as: “Discord is great for playing games and chilling with friends, or even building a worldwide community. Customize your own space to talk, play, and hang out.” The interface is dark, built on **Dark Indigo (#1A2081)** with **White (#FFFFFF)** text, and **Indigo (#5865F2)** as the main accent.

Type is set in **Abcgintodiscordnord** and **Abcgintodiscord**. Headlines run large with tight negative tracking; body text is 16px. The surface language is flat. Corners are mostly 12px.

Measured from [discord.com](https://discord.com/) on October 21, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 120 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Colors

The palette has 7 roles.

- **Dark Indigo (#1A2081):** Page background, seen 1 time. Token `background`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Primary text and headings, seen 50 times. Token `on-surface`.
- **Light Indigo (#BBBDD9):** Secondary text, seen 4 times. Token `on-surface-variant`.
- **White 10% (#FFFFFF1A):** Translucent fill for cards and controls, seen 1 time. Token `overlay`.
- **Indigo (#5865F2):** Primary buttons and calls to action, seen 1 time. Token `primary`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Text and icons on primary. Token `on-primary`.
- **Dark Indigo (#161986):** Brand color in logos and imagery, seen 35 times. Token `secondary`.

## Typography

**Abcgintodiscordnord** and **Abcgintodiscord** share the interface. Fallback stack: `Abcgintodiscordnord, Arial, sans-serif`. Other loaded fonts: Ggsans, ABC Ginto Normal.

- **headline-display:** Abcgintodiscordnord 56px at weight 700, line height 0.86, tracking -0.01em, uppercase (27px on mobile). Page title (h1).
- **headline-lg:** Abcgintodiscordnord 36px at weight 800, line height 0.93, tracking -0.01em, uppercase (27px on mobile). Section headings (h2).
- **body-md:** Abcgintodiscord 16px at weight 400, line height 1.5. Body text.
- **body-lg:** Abcgintodiscord 20px at weight 400, line height 1.3. Lead paragraphs.
- **label-md:** Abcgintodiscord 16px at weight 500, line height 1.2. Buttons, navigation and labels.

## Layout

Spacing does not follow a strict grid: 70% of measured values are multiples of 4px, so match the measured steps rather than rounding to a grid.

- **Scale:** xs 4px, sm 8px, md 12px, lg 24px, xl 56px.
- **Gaps:** 8px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Breakpoints:** 479px, 767px, 768px, 991px, 1280px.

## Elevation & Depth

The design is flat: no shadows were measured. Hierarchy comes from color contrast.

## Shapes

Most elements use 12px corners. Measured radii, most used first:

- **sm (12px):** 48 elements.
- **md (16px):** 32 elements.

## Components

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

- **button-primary (“Open Discord in your browser”):** #5865F2 fill, #FFFFFF text, 20px/400, 12px radius, padding 19.5px 24px.
- **button-secondary (“Download for Windows”):** #FFFFFF fill, #23272A text, 20px/400, 12px radius, padding 15px 24px.
- **button-secondary-hover:** background #C7C8CE, text #23272A on hover.
- **button-tertiary (“Log In”):** #FFFFFF fill, #000000 text, 16px/500, 16px radius, padding 10px 16px.
- **button-ghost (“Discover 3 of 9”):** transparent fill, #FFFFFF text, 16px/500, 12px radius, padding 10px 16px.
- **link:** transparent fill, #FFFFFF text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #1A2081 for the page.
- Do keep text in 2 levels: #FFFFFF, #BBBDD9.
- Do reserve #5865F2 for primary actions and key highlights.
- Do set headlines in Abcgintodiscordnord with tight tracking (-0.01em).
- Do reuse the measured spacing steps (8px, 12px, 24px).
- Do use 12px corners on most elements; larger surfaces also use 16px.
- Don't add drop shadows for depth; use borders and contrast.
- Don't introduce new font families beyond Abcgintodiscordnord and Abcgintodiscord.
- Don't use #5865F2 for large backgrounds or body text.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.4s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.3s, 0.4s, 0.25s, 0.2s.

- **Easing:** `ease`, `ease-in-out`.
