### What is the Drool design system?

The design system on this page is drool.community’s, as measured on November 7, 2026: poppins type, #B09754 as the main color and pill-shaped corners, written down as a DESIGN.md. It is not Drool’s own documentation.

### What is Drool built with?

Drool’s website (drool.community) is built with Next.js, React and Railway. Measured on November 7, 2026.

### What is the Drool DESIGN.md?

A plain-text file with Drool’s measured colors, type, spacing, corners and components as tokens, plus short rules, in the DESIGN.md format Google published with Stitch. Your AI coding agent reads it and builds in this style. More about DESIGN.md.

### How do I use it with Claude Code or Cursor?

Download the file and put it in your project’s root folder, then ask your agent to follow DESIGN.md. Step-by-step guides: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot.

### Is this Drool’s official design system?

No. Sitepeel measured it from drool.community’s public page on November 7, 2026. It is an independent analysis, not made or approved by Drool.

### Can I use Drool’s style in my own product?

Use it to learn, prototype and compare. For a real product, make the style your own, and never copy Drool’s logo, name, pictures or text.

### How accurate are the values?

Each value was measured on the rendered page after it fully loaded, on desktop and mobile: colors where they appear, type with tracking, spacing, corners, shadows and hover states. Sites change, so check the date at the top.

# Drool Design System

## Overview

Drool describes itself as: “Drool Creative Community is a network and toolkit for creatives, freelance designers and studios: client feedback, quoting, briefs, a client portal, Discord and events.” The interface is dark, built on **Charcoal (#212121)** with **White (#FFFFFF)** text, and **Amber (#B09754)** as the main accent.

Type is set in **poppins**. Headlines run large; body text is 16px. Depth comes from soft drop shadows. Controls are pill-shaped.

Measured from [drool.community](https://www.drool.community/) on November 7, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 130 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Colors

The palette has 6 roles.

- **Charcoal (#212121):** Page background. Token `background`, CSS `--drool-eerie`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Primary text and headings. Token `on-surface`.
- **Amber (#B09754):** Links and interactive text, seen 1 time. Token `primary`, CSS `--drool-gold`.
- **Near Black (#000000):** Text and icons on primary. Token `on-primary`.
- **Warm Mist (#F4F1EC):** High-contrast fills, seen 3 times. Token `inverse-surface`, CSS `--drool-isabelline`.
- **Light Teal (#AAF0CE):** Accent, seen 1 time. Token `secondary`, CSS `--drool-mint`.

## Typography

**poppins** carries the whole interface. Fallback stack: `poppins, poppins Fallback, sans-serif`. Other loaded fonts: lcd.

- **body-md:** poppins 16px at weight 400. Body text.
- **body-sm:** poppins 14px at weight 400, line height 1.55. Secondary and small text.
- **label-md:** poppins 13.5px at weight 600. Buttons, navigation and labels.

## Layout

Spacing does not follow a strict grid: 40% of measured values are multiples of 4px, so match the measured steps rather than rounding to a grid.

- **Scale:** sm 8px, md 9.6px, lg 19.2px.
- **Gaps:** 9.6px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Breakpoints:** 600px, 640px, 700px, 720px, 768px, 810px, 900px, 1000px, 1024px, 1090px, 1150px, 1179px, 1205px, 1220px.

## Elevation & Depth

Raised elements use soft drop shadows. The most used recipes:

- `rgba(33, 33, 33, 0.8) 3px 4px 0px 0px`
- `rgba(33, 33, 33, 0.85) 4px 5px 0px 0px`

## Shapes

Interactive controls are pill-shaped. Measured radii, most used first:

- **full (9999px):** 16 elements.

## Components

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

- **button-ghost (“CLIENT BRIEFS”):** transparent fill, #000000 text, 13.3333px/400, padding 0px.
- **card:** #F4F1EC fill, #1C1917 text, 16px/400, padding 17.6px 20px 18.4px 20px, border 1px solid #212121, shadow `rgba(33, 33, 33, 0.85) 4px 5px 0px 0px`.
- **link:** transparent fill, #B09754 text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #212121 for the page.
- Do use #B09754 for links and interactive text.
- Do reuse the measured spacing steps (8px, 9.6px, 19.2px).
- Do make buttons and chips fully rounded (9999px).
- Don't introduce new font families beyond poppins.
- Don't use #B09754 for large backgrounds or body text.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.28s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.15s, 0.12s, 0.06s, 0.28s.

- **Easing:** `ease`, `linear`, `ease-out`.
- **Reduced motion:** the page responds to `prefers-reduced-motion`.
