N O D E S I G N

Almost-invisible minimalism. The absence is the design. White space is the canvas, the cursor is the only ink.

Three values. The rest is restraint.

--bg #ffffff
--fg #000000
image placeholder #f5f5f5
deep ink (mix-blend) #1a1a1a

10 components. Mostly absence.

Button.

Text-only. No box, no fill — just label and a thin underline that brightens on hover. Primary keeps the line solid, ghost drops it entirely.

Input.

Border-bottom only. Label sits above in 10px CAPS at 40% opacity. Focus deepens the underline.

Optional

Textarea.

Same border-bottom treatment, taller. No resize handle. Reads as a continuation of the page, not a box.

Select.

Same border-bottom shell. Native chevron — minimal styling so the OS picker takes over.

Card.

1px hairline border or a soft surface tint. Padding is the only frame. Used to delineate without enclosing.

Badge.

Small CAPS chip. Default is hairline, solid inverts to ink/paper, soft just fades the text.

Dialog.

White-on-white with a 70%-opacity backdrop and 8px blur. Title in CAPS at 14px. Esc + outside-click both close.

Tabs.

Underline strip. Inactive labels at 40% opacity, active gets the line and full ink. No animation — just the line moving.

Switch.

A 1px line with a 8px ink dot that slides 36px when on. Quietest toggle in the system.

Toast.

Hairline-bordered card. CAPS title, soft body. Success/error each pick a single inked side-line.
