# Namecheap Design System

## Overview

Namecheap describes itself as: “Register domain names at Namecheap. Buy cheap domain names and enjoy 24/7 support. With over 18 million domains under management, you know you’re in good hands.” The interface is light, built on **White (#FFFFFF)** with **Graphite (#353535)** text, and **Indigo (#42379B)** as the main accent.

Type is set in **GB Museo Sans**. Headlines run large; body text is 16px. Depth comes from soft drop shadows. Corners are mostly 8px.

Measured from [namecheap.com](https://www.namecheap.com/) on November 4, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 415 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Layout

Spacing follows a 4px grid: 91% of measured gaps and paddings are multiples of 4px.

- **Scale:** xs 4px, sm 8px, md 16px, lg 24px, xl 64px.
- **Sections:** 80px vertical padding between major sections.
- **Gaps:** 8px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Page margin:** 64px on each side of full-width sections.
- **Breakpoints:** 400px, 426px, 479px, 480px, 530px, 550px, 600px, 767px, 768px, 896px, 979px, 980px, 1060px, 1199px, 1200px, 1439px, 1440px.

## Elevation & Depth

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

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.16) 0px 2px 4px -1px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) 0px 4px 5px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 1px 10px 0px`
- `rgb(159, 203, 254) 0px 0px 8px 0px`

## Shapes

Most elements use 8px corners. Measured radii, most used first:

- **md (8px):** 88 elements.
- **lg (10px):** 80 elements.
- **xs (4px):** 68 elements.
- **xl (16px):** 24 elements.
- **sm (6px):** 16 elements.
- **full (9999px):** 16 elements.

## Components

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

- **button-primary (“Search”):** #D3321F fill, #FFFFFF text, 18px/700, 0px 8px 8px 0px radius, padding 0px 12px.
- **button-primary-hover:** background #962416, text #FFFFFF on hover.
- **button-secondary (“Featured”):** #387070 fill, #FFFFFF text, 18px/700, 10px radius, padding 0px 12px.
- **button-secondary-hover:** background #2B5757, text #FFFFFF on hover.
- **button-ghost (“Contact us”):** transparent fill, #4A4A4A text, 16px/700, 8px radius, padding 0px 8px.
- **input-field:** #FFFFFF fill, #353535 text, 18px/700, 8px radius, padding 0px 247px 0px 16px, border 1px solid #2F8EFC, shadow `rgb(159, 203, 254) 0px 0px 8px 0px`.
- **card:** #FFFFFF fill, #4A4A4A text, 16px/300, 16px radius, padding 16px, shadow `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.16) 0px 2px 4px -1px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) 0px 4px 5px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 1px 10px 0px`.
- **link:** transparent fill, #FFFFFF text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #FFFFFF for the page and lift surfaces in small steps: #C7C7C7.
- Do keep text in 4 levels: #353535, #1F1F1F, #434343, #4A4A4A.
- Do use #42379B as the brand accent: header, logo and key highlights.
- Do keep spacing on the 4px grid.
- Do use 8px corners on most elements; larger surfaces also use 10px, 4px and 16px.
- Don't introduce new font families beyond GB Museo Sans.
- Don't use #42379B for large backgrounds or body text.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.333s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.333s.

- **Easing:** `ease`, `cubic-bezier(0.7, 0.01, 0.3, 1)`.
