The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Design systems should feel obvious in motion, not in theory.

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. A vibe pack ships the same idea as a working app, just routed through tokens and prompts instead of compiled React.

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Captions, helper text, fine print — same family, lighter color, smaller scale.

Components in this vibe

Hand-styled with the literal hex values from the token table — exactly what an AI coder would output if prompted with the vibe pack's system prompt.

## Visual identity

- Primary color: `#5B7C5A`
- Background: `#F6F1E9`
- Foreground / text: `#3B3226`
- Accent: `#C4A265`
- Border-radius: `0.75rem`
- Typography: `EB Garamond` (heading) + `DM Sans` (body)

## Voice

Match the brand voice:

> "A frame-by-frame studio for hand-drawn animation"
> Cel is the production CMS for animation studios that still believe in pencil, paper, and the patient labor of one drawing after another. Manage scenes, cels, and layouts — and publish them so the world sees the craft, not just the trailer.

This is the tone you should write in — concise, on-brand, no generic SaaS-speak.

## Patterns

- **Cards**: use `card` background, `border` color border, `radius` rounded corners
- **Primary buttons**: filled `primary` background, `primary-foreground` text, subtle shadow on hover
- **Secondary buttons**: outline `border`, transparent background, `foreground` text
- **Hero sections**: use the brand voice; lead with H1, then sub, then CTA pair
- **Pricing**: 3 tiers, middle one highlighted with `primary` border + shadow
- **Forms**: minimal labels, `muted-foreground` placeholders, `primary` focus ring

## Do NOT

- Use generic Tailwind colors like `bg-blue-500` — use the theme tokens instead
- Add micro-interactions that don't fit the brand voice
- Add emoji unless the brand voice explicitly suggests playfulness
- Use stock Aceternity / shadcn defaults — that defeats the entire point
