Voice & Don'ts
Tone Professional, clean, and focused on design community and curation. Headlines Concise, capitalized for tags, bold for titles. CTAs Simple, action-oriented buttons with clear labels. Don't use complex gradients — screenshot shows clean, solid backgrounds with minimal color. Don't implement dark mode — screenshot shows exclusively light theme with white backgrounds. Don't use decorative serif fonts — screenshot shows consistent use of sans-serif typography. Don't add heavy drop shadows — screenshot shows subtle inset borders instead of prominent shadows. Don't use vibrant accent colors — screenshot maintains a strictly monochromatic palette with occasional brand colors in content. Don't create cluttered layouts — screenshot demonstrates generous white space and clear visual hierarchy. Avoid: Playful or informal language Avoid: Overly decorative elements Avoid: Cluttered layouts

System prompt
Layers.to is a curated design gallery platform for UI/UX designers. The visual system uses a minimalist black and white palette with #000000 ink on #FFFFFF background, supplemented by subtle gray hierarchy (#64748B, #94A3B8). Typography is exclusively grotesque-sans (Inter family) at 16px base with 400 weight. Layout follows a 12-column grid with 24px gutters and 1280px max container width. Critical donts: Never use dark mode (screenshot shows only light theme), avoid decorative serifs (only sans-serif used), and prevent heavy shadows (uses subtle inset borders instead). The interface prioritizes clean card-based layouts with 12px border-radius and minimal interactive states.
