## Typography

- **Display:** geometric-sans
- **Body:** humanist-sans
- **Mono:** slab-mono

## Layout

A centered hero section with text on the left and a complex overlapping composite image on the right, followed by stacked content sections.

*Rhythm:* A base-4 system with generous vertical padding between sections, typically 96px, ensuring clear visual separation.

## Elevation & Depth

- 0 20px 25px -5px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)
- 0 10px 15px -3px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)
- 0 8px 10px -6px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)

## Shapes

- `sm`: 4px
- `md`: 8px
- `lg`: 16px
- `pill`: 999px

## Components

- **button:** Primary buttons are pill-shaped with a vibrant cyan background and dark text; secondary buttons are pill-shaped with a subtle border and dark text.
- **card:** Dark-themed cards with subtle shadows and rounded corners, used for testimonials and feature highlights.
- **chip:** Minimal use, primarily seen as badges or small labels within the UI mockup.
- **input:** Clean, bordered input fields with standard padding and rounded corners.
- **hero:** A split layout featuring a bold typographic headline, subtitle, two primary action buttons, and a large overlapping composite image of the product interface.

## Do's and Don'ts

**Don't:**
- Don't use serif typography for headlines — the screenshot shows bold, geometric sans-serif typefaces throughout.
- Don't use a dark theme as the default — the primary background is a clean, bright white.
- Don't use harsh, saturated accent colors — the primary accent is a bright but approachable cyan (#2EC4FF).
- Don't use sharp, square corners — the UI features rounded corners, often with a pill shape (999px) for buttons.
- Don't use heavy drop shadows everywhere — shadows are subtle, used primarily on floating cards and composite images.
- Don't make the layout dense — the design uses generous whitespace and padding, especially between major sections.

## System Prompt (paste into AI agent)

```
Val Town is a friendly developer tool for instantly deploying JavaScript, characterized by a clean, approachable aesthetic. Key colors include a crisp white background (#FFFFFF), deep black text (#000000), and a vibrant cyan accent (#2EC4FF) for primary calls to action. The typography uses a geometric sans-serif for bold headings, a humanist sans-serif for body text, and a slab-mono for code. Critical design rules include: Don't use dark mode as the primary layout; the screenshot shows a bright, white-dominant interface. Don't use sharp, square corners; the UI uses rounded corners and pill-shaped buttons extensively. Don't use dense layouts; generous whitespace and clear visual hierarchy are essential. The tone is casual and welcoming, avoiding overly technical jargon.
