# DESIGN.md: Stripe style

Build every screen in this project to this specification. It records the interface of Stripe (https://stripe.com),

do not copy Stripe's logo, name, copy, illustrations or photos.

White pages framed by faint vertical hairlines, light-weight (300) Sohne headlines in deep navy with a muted continuation, a single violet #533afd for actions, and a silk gradient ribbon sweeping across the hero.

Theme: light. Category: marketing-site.

## Principles

- Build on white. Draw the page frame with two faint full-height vertical hairlines at the column edges and 1px rules between bands; let dark #0d1738 bands and the gradient ribbon run full bleed across that frame.
- Set headlines light: Sohne at weight 300 with tight negative tracking (-0.02em at 48px, -1.4px at 56px). Emphasis comes from colour, not weight.
- Write section headlines as one paragraph in two tones: a short sentence in #061b31, then the explanation in #64748d at the same size.
- Use one action colour on marketing pages: #533afd for the primary button, links and focus. Buttons are 4px-radius rectangles, 48px in content and 40px in the header, with a trailing chevron.
- Every focusable element gets a 3px solid #5452fbbf outline (offset 1px on buttons, 3px on text links). Hover darkens the violet; nothing scales or lifts.
- Animate colour over 0.3s with cubic-bezier(0.25, 1, 0.5, 1); the header uses 0.24s with cubic-bezier(0.45, 0.05, 0.55, 0.95).
- Show the product: live, animated UI mock-ups inside bento cards, bleeding off the card edge over pastel gradients, rather than icons or stock illustration.
- Dashboard and docs surfaces switch to the grey-blue system: 1px #d4dee9 box-shadow rings instead of borders, 6px to 8px radii, a 4px focus halo, and the system font on docs.

## Avoid

- Bold or semibold display headlines on marketing pages
- Pill-shaped buttons outside the pricing page
- More than one filled violet button in a group
- Saturated backgrounds behind body text; colour lives in the ribbon, the dark bands and the mock-ups
- Card drop shadows on the white canvas for ordinary content; shadows are kept for floating mock-ups, menus and the auth card
- Centred body copy outside hero-like bands (the dark stats band and testimonials are the exceptions)

## Layout

Breakpoints: pricing: 600px, 900px, 1112px, 1300px (min-width), login: 490px, 768px, 1040px, 1264px, 1440px (min-width), docs: 800px (max-width), 1000px (min-width), home: no media queries readable in the captured stylesheets

- **Announcement bar:** 36px tall full-width #0d1738 strip above the header: one centred 14px/400 white line ending in a bold link with a chevron, a close X 40px wide at the right edge. Its 4px corner squares off on scroll (announcement-bar-square keyframes).
- **Header:** 76px tall, white, 1px hairline below. Inside a 64px nav: logo at the left of the 1232px content column, then Products, Solutions, Developers, Resources (each with a small chevron), Pricing, a 1px vertical divider and an AI guide link with a sparkle icon. At the right, a 40px outlined Sign in and a 40px violet Contact sales with a chevron. The gradient ribbon passes behind it.
- **Framed column:** The 1266px frame is drawn as two 1px vertical hairlines running the full page height at 87px from each edge at 1440. Bands are separated by 1px horizontal rules that meet the frame lines. Dark bands and the gradient ribbon run full bleed across the frame.
- **Hero:** Text inset to 208px. A 14px label with a live, ticking figure, then a four-line 48px/300 headline whose first sentence is in heading navy and the rest in slate, then two 48px buttons 8px apart (violet primary with chevron, light secondary with a Google mark). A silk gradient ribbon (blue, violet, orange, pink) sweeps from the top centre to the right edge behind the text. A row of six customer logos sits in a ruled strip below.
- **Two-tone section intro:** 32px/300 headline, left aligned at the content edge, about 790px wide: one short sentence in #061b31 followed in the same paragraph by a longer sentence in #64748d.
- **Bento grid:** Cards with a 1px border on white, 16px apart: a row of two (816px and 400px wide, 676px tall), a row of three, then one full-width card. Each card has a 26px/300 title at 24px inset top left, a small square expand button top right, and a live product mock-up bleeding off the bottom or right edge over a soft gradient. The whole card is a button that opens a large dialog over a blurred page.
- **Dark stats band:** Full-bleed #0d1738 with a soft violet glow. Centred 56px/300 white headline on two lines, then a 1px-ruled row of four stats (48px/300 figure, 16px label); the active stat is white and the others #6480b2. Below, an animated starburst of lines and dots with a small day/night switch in the top right corner.
- **Split section intro:** Headline (26px/300) and a violet button in a 504px left column; an 18px/300 slate paragraph in the right half. Followed by a feature list, a story list or three columns.
- **Customer story list:** Rows separated by dashed hairlines: 40px logo tile, 22px/300 title, and at the right a 40px story button. The first row is open, showing a 1232px wide photo with three inline facts under it; the others are collapsed.
- **Three-up feature columns:** Three columns each with a 40px outlined icon tile, a bold lead-in sentence followed by slate copy on the same line, and a violet text link with a chevron.
- **Pricing hero and plans:** Pricing uses the older system: #f6f9fc page, a diagonal multicolour stripe crossing the page behind two plan cards (a white Standard card with a tinted price panel, a dark navy Custom card with four stacked option tiles), dashed vertical guide lines every 270px, and a floating pill sub-nav (Standard pricing, Custom pricing, FAQs) that becomes a sticky white bar with a gradient progress line on scroll.
- **Pricing table:** A left index of product links (15px, active in violet, groups in bold) and a white card at the right whose rows are split in two: product name and description on the left, fee and footnotes on the right, separated by dashed hairlines.
- **Docs shell:** Two header rows: logo with a DOCS wordmark at the left, a 200px search trigger and an Ask AI button centred, Create account and a small outlined Sign in at the right; a second row of 14px/600 tabs with two dropdowns at the right. Content in a 1008px column starting at 216px. A dotted gradient pattern fills the top left corner. The page scrolls inside the app shell (document height equals the viewport).
- **Footer:** #f8fafd band, 16px/300 #50617a links in columns, a newsletter email field with a Continue button, and a locale switcher.
- **Floating chat card:** Fixed at the bottom right: a white card with two overlapping avatars, a green dot, a bold availability line and a close X; a separate dark Chat now button below it. Present on home and pricing at every width.

Responsive: At 768 the announcement wraps to 47px, the header is 66px and the nav collapses into a menu button; the content column is 736px with 16px gutters and bento cards stack. At 390 the announcement wraps to three lines (67px), the header shows the logo and a square menu button, the hero headline shows only its first sentence, both hero buttons go full width and stack, every grid becomes one column, and the chat card overlaps the content. Pricing at 390 stacks the plan cards and moves the price panel under the description. On the sign up page the 1440 modal over a blurred dashboard becomes, at 390, a plain card on a tinted page with the gradient ribbon at the bottom and the Google button moved above the fields.

### Mega menu

White panel spanning the 1262px nav width directly under the header, with a shadow and the page dimmed behind it. Four columns of groups (16px/400 group title over a 1px rule, then items: violet 14px/400 title over a 14px/300 slate description). A fifth column on a tinted background holds more links and an event card with an image. A bottom row, separated by a rule, holds a question and two violet links with descriptions.

- width: 1262px
- item: 14px/400 #533afd title, 14px/300 #50617a description, line height 18px
- column-gap: about 40px

Hover and focus differences on the card were not observed.

### Stat switcher

Row of four buttons on the dark band, each a large figure over a two-line label, separated by 1px rules; a short bright line marks the active one.

### Not measured

- The hero gradient ribbon (blue, violet, orange, pink silk folds) crossing the header and hero on home, and the same ribbon behind the log in card. On log in it is a static 3000 by 2500 image; on home it is rendered by script. The string THREE.WebGLRenderer is in the home and log in scripts, but whether the ribbon moves, and how, was not measured.
- The hero headline: its computed colours read rgb(129, 184, 26) and rgba(0, 14, 255, 0.5) while the screenshot shows navy and slate text with parts of words tinted violet where the ribbon passes. The effect is script or blend driven and not specified here.
- In the 1440 screenshot the header Sign in label is orange over the ribbon although its computed colour is #533afd; the mechanism was not measured.
- The live counter in the hero label ticks; a span slides up by 100% over 325ms after a 450ms delay with cubic-bezier(0.33, 1, 0.68, 1), consistent with rolling digits.
- Product mock-ups in the bento cards play scripted sequences: a 11.95s opacity timeline on an image (cubic-bezier(0.2, 0, 0, 1)), vertical text cycling over 1420ms after a 4000ms delay with cubic-bezier(0.78, 0, 0.22, 1), path draws with stroke-dashoffset over 1s. Full choreography is not specified.
- A testimonial logo strip autoplays: a violet (#533afd) bar grows under the active logo (an svg rect animated in width), switching the quote. Its period was not measured.
- The starburst of lines and dots on the dark band animates continuously; it is script driven and not specified.
- Mega menu open and close timing, the bento dialog entrance (the capture caught the dialog blurred mid-opening), and the docs search dialog entrance: keyframes or transitions exist but their running duration was not measured.
- Elements revealed by script translate up from 324px with no CSS transition (transition: all 0s), so the timing comes from script and was not measured.
- Hover on the bento cards, on the header nav triggers themselves, and on auth fields showed no computed difference; any hover effect there is not recorded.

## Flow: Log in

Starts at `/login`. dashboard.stripe.com. White page with a 76px top bar (logo at 105px from the left, 1px hairline below) and the gradient ribbon image filling the right two-thirds behind. Faint vertical frame lines at the column edges. One white card, 540px wide, centred horizontally, top at 138px of a 900px viewport, 12px radius, auth-card shadow, 64px side padding (412px content) and 48px top padding. A tinted strip at the bottom inside the card holds the switch link. Copyright and privacy links sit below the fold.

### 1. Credentials

- Card title in slate ("Sign in to your account")
- Email field: type email, name email, required, no autocomplete attribute; focused on arrival with the violet ring
- Password field: type password, autocomplete current-password; the label row carries a "Forgot your password?" link at the right (14px/600 #635bff)
- Checkbox "Remember me on this device", checked by default
- Primary Sign in button, 44px full width, pale while the fields are empty
- Divider: 1px #d4dee9 line with a centred 13px label ("Or sign in with")
- Three 40px outline buttons stacked 10px apart: Google, Passkey, SSO, each with a 16px icon
- Tinted strip at the card's foot: 13px question with a violet link to create an account
- Action: Sign in (a type=button control, submitted by script): not exercised
- Action: Forgot your password: goes to /reset
- Action: Create account: goes to /register
- Action: Google: continues with Google (id continue_with_google)
- Action: Passkey and SSO: their ids (toggle_passkey_mode, toggle_sso_mode) indicate the card switches mode in place; not exercised
- Action: Logo: goes to stripe.com
- Validation: Not observed: no submit was attempted on this page, and the measurement recorded no validation result. The CSS carries a horizontal shake (auth-shake) for a rejected attempt.

Not recorded: Everything after valid credentials (two-step verification, account picker, dashboard), the reset password screen, the passkey and SSO modes, and the Google hand-off.

## Flow: Sign up

Starts at `/register`. dashboard.stripe.com. At 1440 a white modal card, about 540px wide with rounded corners and a soft shadow (its radius and shadow were not isolated), centred and starting 91px down, over a blurred, dimmed preview of the dashboard (240px sidebar, 60px search header, charts). About 48px inner padding around a 444px content column. At 390 there is no dashboard preview: a tinted top bar with the logo, the card full width with 16px margins, the gradient ribbon at the bottom of the page, and the Google button moved above the fields.

### 1. Account details

- Card title in bold slate ("Create your Stripe account")
- Email field: type email, autocomplete email; focused on arrival with the blue 4px halo
- Full name field: type text, autocomplete name
- Password field: type password, autocomplete new-password
- Country: a 44px select-like button with a flag, the country name and an up-down chevron; an info icon next to its label opens a tooltip
- Marketing consent checkbox, unchecked, with a three-line label containing two links
- Primary Create account button, full width, pale while the form is incomplete
- Divider with a centred 13px label ("Or sign up with")
- Outline Google button
- 13px line with a question and a violet sign in link
- Action: Create account: posts to /register (not exercised beyond an empty submit)
- Action: Google: continues with Google
- Action: Sign in: goes to /login
- Action: Country: opens a country list (not opened during capture)
- Validation: An empty submit stays on the page with no visible change: no native bubble, no inline message, the button stays pale. Field-level errors after typing were not observed. The CSS carries a password strength meter (strength-indicator keyframes, a 0.3s height transition on the password block) and the auth-shake keyframes.

Not recorded: Email verification, business details and activation steps, the password strength messages, and the country list, which all need input or an account.
