## Overview

Resend · Email for developers: The best way to reach humans instead of spam folders. Deliver transactional and marketing emails at scale.

Sharp, squared-off controls, layered shadows for depth, large display type at 96px / 400, a single blue accent on neutrals. The site ships in dark mode by default (dark surfaces, light type). Measured from 2611 rendered elements at 1440px wide on 2026-09-28.

Reference screenshots live beside this file; look at them before writing any layout, they carry the composition, density and image treatment that tokens cannot:

## Colors

| Token | Value | Use |
| --- | --- | --- |
| background | `#000000` | Page background |
| surface | `#0b0e14` | Cards, panels, raised or recessed surfaces |
| surface-2 | `#041e12` | Secondary surface |
| surface-3 | `#211100` | Secondary surface |
| foreground | `#a1a4a5` | Primary text |
| muted-foreground | `#f0f0f0` | Secondary text, captions |
| primary | `#00a3ff` | Accent: primary buttons, links, focus |
| on-primary | `#111111` | Text on the accent |
| secondary | `#eb5c5d` | Secondary accent (orange) |
| border | `#292d30` | Hairlines, dividers, input borders |

Full painted palette by area (largest first): `#000000`, `#ffffff`, `#292d30`, `#0b0e14`, `#1f2225`, `#00a3ff`, `#041e12`, `#1c1235`.

Gradients in use: `linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 60%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 100%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 100%)`; `linear-gradient(rgba(80, 80, 80, 0.15) 0%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 70%)`; `linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 50%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 100%)`.

The accent `#00a3ff` is used sparingly: primary buttons, links and focus rings. Everything else stays neutral.

### Full inventory

## Dark Mode

Both themes exist; the default render is dark and the light theme was reached via class light. Token pairs, light → dark:

| Token | Light | Dark |
| --- | --- | --- |
| background | `#000000` | `#000000` |
| surface | `#0b0e14` | `#0b0e14` |
| foreground | `#191919` | `#a1a4a5` |
| muted-foreground | `#4d4d4d` | `#f0f0f0` |
| primary | `#00a3ff` | `#00a3ff` |
| on-primary | `#111111` | `#111111` |
| secondary | `#dc3d41` | `#eb5c5d` |
| border | `#d7d7de` | `#292d30` |

Light-theme shadows: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 0px 0px 1px`; `rgb(0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 8px`; `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 1px 3px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 1px 2px -1px`; `rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 1px 1px 0px inset`

The light pass changed the page but the result still reads as dark; check the light screenshot.

## Responsive Behavior

| Viewport | Content width | Gutter | Body | H1 | Header | Hero | Grids | Buttons |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| desktop 1440px | 1280px | 168px | 16px | 96px, 2 lines, left | 58px, 3 links | media above text | 6→6 col; 6→6 col; 2→1 col | 1 full-width |
| laptop 1024px | 976px | 88px | 16px | 96px, 2 lines, left | 58px, 3 links | media above text | 6→6 col; 6→6 col; 2→1 col | 1 full-width |
| tablet 768px | 720px | 24px | 16px | 96px, 2 lines, left | 58px, 2 links | media above text | 6→3 col; 6→3 col; 2→1 col | 1 full-width |
| phone 390px | 342px | 24px | 16px | 64px, 2 lines, center | 0px, 0 links | media above text | 2→1 col; 6→2 col; 2→1 col | 1 full-width |

- H1 goes 96px → 64px (67%), 2 → 2 lines.
- Nav never collapses to a hamburger (0 links still visible at 390px).
- Card grids: 6 columns → 2 columns on phones (gap normal 16px → normal 16px).
- Body text stays 16px at every width.
- Phone side gutter 24px.
- 1 buttons stretch full-width on phones.
- Section top padding 96px → 48px.

## Interaction & Motion

135 elements carry transitions; typical 0.2s with cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1), mostly on opacity, color, background-color. 6 running keyframe animations (scroll-x 180s infinite; header-slide-down-fade 1s 1; hero-text-slide-up-fade 1s 1).

- Hover on button-secondary ("Log in"): no visible change; cursor pointer; transition color, background-color, border-color, outline-color, text-decoration-color, fill, stroke, --tw-gradient-from, --tw-gradient-via, --tw-gradient-to, opacity, box-shadow, transform, translate, scale, rotate, filter, -webkit-backdrop-filter, backdrop-filter, display, content-visibility, overlay, pointer-events | 0.2s | cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1).
- Hover on nav-link ("Pricing"): no visible change; cursor pointer; transition color, background-color, border-color, outline-color, text-decoration-color, fill, stroke, --tw-gradient-from, --tw-gradient-via, --tw-gradient-to, opacity, box-shadow, transform, translate, scale, rotate, filter, -webkit-backdrop-filter, backdrop-filter, display, content-visibility, overlay, pointer-events | 0.15s | cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1).
- Tooltip triggers exist (11 × title) but none opened on hover in the first viewport; title attributes fall back to the browser's native tooltip.
- Hover/click menus: below the trigger, 12px gap, centered on trigger; transparent, radius 0px, padding 0px 0px, shadow none; appears instantly (no fade); removed instantly on leave.
- 10 sizable elements sit at opacity 0 before scrolling: scroll-reveal animations are in use (reveal on enter, fade + rise is the usual recipe).

Full detail (every overlay, table, form, scroll and text rule measured) is in `BEHAVIOR.md`; raw evidence in `evidence.json`.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use 4px multiples for every padding, margin and gap; the site does not use odd values.
- Do reserve `#00a3ff` for actions and focus; never paint large areas with it.
- Do keep body text at 14px in inter and headings in domaine.
- Do match corner radii per element class (buttons 4px, cards 16px); do not pick one radius for everything.
- Do use the measured shadows above; do not invent heavier ones.
- Don't substitute a different accent hue or introduce gradients that are not listed above.
- Don't rebuild from the tokens alone; open the screenshots for composition, density and image treatment.
