## 2. STRICT ARCHITECTURE RULES

### 2.1 CSS-First Architecture & Zero Inline CSS
- **No Inline CSS:** The `style="..."` attribute is forbidden anywhere in the HTML. No `<style>` blocks in the HTML.
- **Class/ID Selectors Only:** All design properties, layout rules, and states are targeted via class or ID selectors in `style.css`.
- **Minimal HTML Modifications:** Markup stays clean, semantic, and styling-agnostic — changing the look must require editing only `style.css`.

### 2.2 CSS Variables & Theme Tokens
Define this exact token block in `:root` (adjust only where a documented a11y note requires it):

```css
:root {
  /* Colors */
  --primary: #6F4E37;
  --secondary: #FFDAB9;
  --bg-primary: #FFFDD0;
  --bg-secondary: #FEFEFE;      /* never #FFFFFF for surfaces */
  --text-primary: #6F4E37;
  --text-secondary: #55606C;     /* darkened Slate Gray — AA on cream; raw #708090 only for large/decorative text */
  --text-success: #2E7D4F;       /* AA-safe deep green derived from Mint Green; raw #98FB98 only as a fill paired with dark text */
  --text-error: #DC143C;
  --border-default: #D2B48C;
  --border-error: #DC143C;
  --border-success: #2E7D4F;
  /* Accents */
  --accent-peach: #FFDAB9;
  --accent-sky: #87CEEB;
  --accent-mint: #98FB98;
  --accent-cherry: #DC143C;
  --accent-slate: #708090;
  --chalkboard-bg: #35404D;      /* darkened slate chalkboard surface */
  --chalk-text: #FFFDD0;
  /* Radius */
  --radius-sm: 6px;
  --radius-md: 14px;
  --radius-lg: 28px;
  --radius-organic: 255px 15px 225px 15px / 15px 225px 15px 255px; /* hand-drawn wobble */
  /* Shadows (warm brown-tinted) */
  --shadow-sm: 0 2px 6px rgba(111, 78, 55, 0.12);
  --shadow-md: 0 10px 28px rgba(111, 78, 55, 0.18);
  /* Spacing & transitions */
  --spacing-gap: 1.5rem;
  --transition-fast: 0.25s ease-in-out;   /* buttons, links, inputs */
  --transition-normal: 0.7s ease-in-out;  /* section reveals, ambient + aroma effects, per spec */
  --ease-standard: ease-in-out;
  /* Stacking */
  --z-dropdown: 1000;
  --z-modal: 1100;
  --z-toast: 1200;
  /* Fonts */
  --font-display: "Caveat", cursive;
  --font-base: "Nunito", sans-serif;
}
```

- **Contrast Pairing:** Every light background token pairs with a dark text token and every dark background token with a light text token — enforced in every theme, not just the default.
- **White rule:** `#FFFFFF` is permitted only inside pure-CSS illustrations (steam, chalk highlights). All page/section/card surfaces use `#FEFEFE` or warmer tokens — never pure white.
- **No `transition: all`:** Always enumerate transitioned properties (`transform`, `box-shadow`, `background-color`, `border-color`, `color`, `opacity`).

### 2.3 Mandatory Dark Mode Support
- Define a complete dark token set under **both** `@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark)` and a `.dark` class selector. Required values: `--bg-primary: #241C16; --bg-secondary: #322921; --text-primary: #FFFDD0; --text-secondary: #D8C8AA; --primary: #D2B48C; --text-success: #98FB98; --text-error: #FF8A96; --border-default: #6B5443; --border-error: #FF8A96; --border-success: #98FB98;` with deeper shadow alphas.
- Theme switching must work purely by variable swap — no HTML restructuring. Persist user choice via `localStorage`, falling back to `prefers-color-scheme` on first visit; any toggle control must carry correct `aria-pressed`/`aria-label` state.
- **Exception (client override):** The brief requests a Light-Mode-only experience — therefore Light Mode is the enforced default and every texture, illustration, and panel must be art-directed for Light Mode; the dark token set must still be fully defined per this rule and served only as an automatic `prefers-color-scheme` fallback, with the visible toggle omitted.

### 2.4 Flexbox Layout & Mobile-First Alignment
- Build all layout structures with Flexbox. **Every flex container defaults to `align-items: center`** unless an exception is justified in a CSS comment (e.g., form field wrappers use `stretch`).
- Mobile-first: single-column by default; multi-column rows activate via `min-width` media queries. No horizontal scrolling at any viewport from 320px up. All touch targets ≥ 44×44px.

### 2.5 Framework Default & Tailwind CSS Integration
- Use Tailwind CSS (Play CDN acceptable) for layout utilities; component styling lives in `style.css` via `@layer components` with `@apply`. All utilities must map back to CSS variables or the generic reusable classes `.btn`, `.card`, `.input-group`.

### 2.6 Typography & Icons (Google Fonts Mandatory)
- Load **Caveat** and **Nunito** via Google Fonts `<link>` tags. `--font-display` (Caveat) is used only for headings, chalkboard panels, and short decorative copy — never long body text or small UI labels. `--font-base` (Nunito) handles all body and UI text.
- Icons: **Google Material Symbols only** (suggested: `coffee`, `bakery_dining`, `breakfast_dining`, `local_cafe`, `emoji_food_beverage`, `storefront`, `favorite`, `star`, `check_circle`, `help`, `arrow_forward`, `close`, `shopping_basket`). Inline SVGs and local icon files are forbidden.

## 3. COMPONENT DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS

### 3.1 Buttons (`.btn`, `.btn--primary`, `.btn--secondary`, `.btn--danger`)
- **Default:** `display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; gap: 0.5rem;` min 44×44px; Nunito semibold (Caveat allowed only on large display CTAs ≥ 1.25rem); `--radius-organic` or `--radius-md`; secondary variant uses the dashed tan "stamp" border.
- **Hover:** warm brightness shift + `--shadow-md` + rising steam wisp (aroma effect); `cursor: pointer`.
- **Focus:** distinct visible ring via `outline: 3px solid var(--accent-cherry)` with offset, or a `box-shadow` ring built from variables — must be clearly visible in both themes.
- **Active/Pressed:** `transform: scale(0.97)`.
- **Loading (`.is-loading`):** disables interaction, prevents double-clicks, renders a CSS spinner (rotating dashed ring) or animated Material Symbol without changing button dimensions; set `aria-busy`.
- **Disabled:** `opacity: 0.5`, grayscale, `cursor: not-allowed`.
- **Success/Error:** temporary feedback styles driven by `--text-success` / `--text-error`, always paired with an icon and text — never color alone.
- **Danger:** `.btn--danger` uses Cherry Red and must be visually distinct in both themes.

### 3.2 Cards (`.card` — features, testimonials, pricing tiers)
- **Default:** flex column, `--bg-secondary`, `2px dashed var(--border-default)` stamp border, `--radius-organic`, `--shadow-sm`, generous padding.
- **Hover:** `transform: translateY(-2px)` + elevation shift + the "visual aroma" animation (translucent steam wisps rising via `::before`/`::after` keyframes).
- **Focus-within:** border color shifts to `--primary` when a child link/button receives focus.
- **Loading (skeleton):** shimmer keyframe over neutral beige blocks with identical dimensions — no layout jump.
- **Empty state:** structured fallback with a Material Symbol and guidance text, defined in CSS.

### 3.3 Forms & Inputs (`.input-group` — newsletter, modal form)
- **Structure:** flex column wrapper containing `<label>`, `<input>`, and a dedicated error feedback element with `aria-live="polite"`.
- **States via classes:** empty, focused (outline ring), filled, valid (success border + `check_circle` icon), invalid (`--border-error`, error text, error icon), disabled, read-only. Never rely on color alone — pair every state with an icon and/or text.

### 3.4 Modal / Popup ("Reserve a Cozy Table", opened from the Final CTA)
- **States:** opening, open, loading, success/error, closing — all animated with `var(--transition-normal)`.
- **UX:** centered flex overlay (`align-items: center; justify-content: center`), coffee-brown-tinted backdrop, Material Symbol close button, keyboard focus trap, close via `Esc` and overlay click, `role="dialog"` + `aria-modal="true"`, focus returned to the trigger on close.

## 4. SECTION-BY-SECTION REQUIREMENTS

### 4.1 Sticky Header + Hero
- **Header:** cream translucent surface (backdrop blur), Caveat logo, anchor nav (Features, How It Works, Testimonials, Pricing, FAQ), `.btn--primary` CTA; mobile hamburger with `aria-expanded`/`aria-controls` and a dropdown layered at `--z-dropdown`.
- **Hero:** two-column flex on desktop (copy + `.coffee-illustration`), stacked column on mobile.
- `.chalkboard-text` headline in Caveat on `--chalkboard-bg` (e.g., "Freshly Baked. Slowly Brewed. Locally Loved."), Nunito subcopy, primary CTA + stamp-style secondary CTA.
- `.coffee-illustration`: pure-CSS coffee cup (rounded body, pseudo-element handle, saucer) with animated steam wisps — no SVG, no images. Add a rotated "Baked Fresh Daily" stamp badge (dashed cherry border, slight rotation).
- Trust strip: three inline mini-stats with Material Symbols.

### 4.2 Features — 3 Cards
- Cards titled e.g. "Handmade Every Morning," "Locally Roasted Beans," "A Cozy Corner for Everyone." Each `.card`: stamped icon circle (Material Symbol), Caveat title, Nunito copy. Hover triggers the aroma effect; skeleton styles defined per 3.2.

### 4.3 How It Works — 3 Steps
- Numbered 01 / 02 / 03 connected by a dashed stamp-motif line; icons `storefront` → `bakery_dining` → `favorite`; copy e.g. "Choose Your Treat," "We Handcraft It Fresh," "Sip, Savor, Stay Awhile." Flex row on desktop, column on mobile with the connector hidden or vertical.

### 4.4 Testimonials
- Three quote `.card`s: star ratings (Material Symbol `star` with `aria-label`), quote text, CSS-initials avatar circles (peach/mint/sky fills each paired with dark text), customer name + descriptor. Static responsive grid is acceptable; if a carousel is used it must include a pause control and `aria-live="polite"`.

### 4.5 Pricing — 3 Tiers
- Tiers e.g. "Corner Regular," "The Morning Ritual," "The Family Table" (USD pricing). Middle tier featured: `--primary` fill with cream text (contrast pairing), "Most Loved" cherry stamp badge, subtle scale/lift. Feature lists use `check_circle` icons; each tier gets a `.btn` (featured tier uses inverted colors).

### 4.6 FAQ
- Accessible accordion: button + region pattern with `aria-expanded`/`aria-controls`, fully keyboard operable, smooth height transition (grid-rows `0fr`/`1fr` technique). Five to six real English Q&As (bean sourcing, gluten-free options, opening hours, reservations, loyalty). Dashed stamp borders; one chalkboard-panel question for variety.

### 4.7 Final CTA
- Full-width warm panel (peach-to-cream gradient or `.jute-texture-bg`), Caveat headline, short copy, newsletter `.input-group` (email + `.btn--primary`) with full form states and `aria-live` feedback, plus a "Reserve a Table" button opening the modal from 3.4.

### 4.8 Footer
- Wood-texture background (pure-CSS repeating gradients), brand block, secondary link columns (Explore: Menu / Our Story / Locations; Support: Contact / Careers / FAQ; Legal: Privacy / Terms), social Material Symbols with `aria-label`s, copyright line. All links are real anchors (`href="#section-id"` or valid targets).

### 4.9 Textures & Decorative System (CSS-only)
- `.jute-texture-bg`: burlap weave via two crossed `repeating-linear-gradient`s (45°/-45°) at very low alpha over the base background.
- **Wood texture:** layered vertical `repeating-linear-gradient` grain bands in coffee browns.
- **Stamp effect:** `2px dashed var(--border-default)` borders; stamp badges add slight rotation and cherry "ink."
- **Chalkboard:** `--chalkboard-bg` surface with subtle chalk-dust speckle and a dashed chalk frame; `--chalk-text` in Caveat.
- **Organic section transitions:** curved/wavy dividers between sections built from `border-radius` ellipses or layered radial gradients — no SVG. Alternate section backgrounds with low-alpha warm washes of the accent palette.
- **Scroll reveals:** sections fade/slide in with `var(--transition-normal)` via an IntersectionObserver adding `.is-visible`.

## 5. CORE UX & MICRO-INTERACTION RULES

- **Responsive by default:** fluid `clamp()` typography, responsive breakpoints, zero horizontal overflow.
- **Smooth animations:** CSS transitions on all state changes; ambient/section effects at `0.7s ease-in-out` per spec, interactive controls at `--transition-fast`. Fully respect `prefers-reduced-motion` (disable steam, wobble, and reveal motion; keep simple opacity fades).
- **Accessibility:** WCAG AA contrast in both light and dark token sets; never communicate state by color alone; semantic HTML5 elements; correct ARIA roles/labels on all custom widgets (nav, accordion, modal, carousel); logical DOM/focus order; full keyboard operability; `aria-live` regions for form errors, loading, and dynamic feedback; visible focus on every interactive element; include a skip-to-content link.
- **Mandatory visual feedback:** every click, hover, and submission triggers a visible state change.
- **Destructive actions:** visually distinct in both themes.

---

## 6. DELIVERABLES & OUTPUT FORMAT

- **Files:** separate `index.html`, `style.css`, `script.js`. No inline `<script>` blocks beyond a single deferred `<script src="script.js" defer>` entry point. No inline styles. No `<style>` blocks.
- **Naming:** one consistent BEM convention across the entire deliverable (`.hero__title`, `.card__icon`, `.btn--primary`, `.faq__item`) — never mix conventions. The three spec-mandated classes `.coffee-illustration`, `.chalkboard-text`, `.jute-texture-bg` must exist verbatim as block-level utilities.
- **Assets:** Google Fonts and Material Symbols via `<link>` tags only. No external images — all illustrations, textures, and avatars are pure CSS.
- **Copy:** real, themed English copy everywhere; lorem ipsum and unrequested placeholder content are prohibited.
- **JavaScript scope (vanilla, minimal):** theme-preference handling, mobile nav, accordion, modal, form validation with loading/success/error states, scroll reveals. All user-facing strings in English.
- Deliver the complete code on the first attempt — no partial builds, no TODOs.
