## 0. DESIGN BRIEF — THEME DEFINITION

**Theme:** Happy Art Tropical — Cheerful, Tropical, Colorful, Brazilian
**Era:** Contemporary Happy Art Movement
**Modes:** Full Light Mode ✓ and Full Dark Mode ✓
**Output category:** Playful & Youth

**Keywords:** happy art, vibrant, colorful, pop art, cubism, graffiti, hearts, circles, dots, stripes, patterns, bold lines, optimistic, joyful, playful, geometric, rounded shapes, tropical, bright colors, high contrast

**Visual direction:** Design a tropical Happy Art landing page with vibrant saturated colors. Use rounded, curvy shapes throughout; bold repetitive patterns (circles, dots, stripes, hearts); thick black outlines; flat high-contrast colors; simplified geometric compositions; overlapping colorful patterns; playful whimsical elements; visual textures through contrasting colors; soft shadows; subtle gradients; intricate pattern-filled areas. Combine Pop Art, Cubism, and Graffiti influences into an optimistic, joyful aesthetic.

**Color palette:**
- **Primary:** Vibrant Red `#FF1744`, Bright Yellow `#FFD600`, Electric Blue `#00E5FF`, Intense Pink `#FF4081`, Lime Green `#76FF03`, Radiant Orange `#FF9100`
- **Secondary:** Vibrant Purple `#D500F9`, Turquoise `#1DE9B6`, Magenta `#F50057`, Cyan `#00B8D4`, White `#FFFFFF`, Black `#000000`

**Signature CSS language (must be tokenized, never hardcoded):**
- Fonts: `'Fredoka One'` (display), `'Baloo 2'` / `'Nunito'` (body) — rounded sans-serifs
- `border-radius: 20–30px` on all components
- `border: 3–4px solid` black — the "sticker outline" signature
- `box-shadow: 6px 6px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)` — hard offset shadows
- Backgrounds: vibrant gradients or flat saturated colors
- Pattern overlays built exclusively with CSS `radial-gradient` and `repeating-linear-gradient`
- `transition: all 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`

**Required sections (in DOM order):** Header/nav → Hero → Features (3 cards) → How It Works (3 steps) → Testimonials → Pricing (3 tiers) → FAQ → Final CTA → Footer with secondary links.

## 1. STRICT RULES & ARCHITECTURE

### 1.1 CSS-First Architecture & Zero Inline CSS
- **No Inline CSS:** The `style="..."` attribute is forbidden anywhere in the HTML.
- **Class/ID Selectors Only:** All design properties, layout rules, and states must be applied via class or ID selectors defined in `style.css`.
- **Minimal HTML Modifications:** HTML must remain clean, semantic, and styling-agnostic — changing the look must never require touching the markup.

### 1.2 CSS Variables & Theme Tokens
Store every visual token in `:root` and override in `.dark`. Use exactly this foundation (you may extend it, never bypass it):

```css
:root {
  /* Brand palette */
  --primary: #FF1744;           /* Vibrant Red */
  --secondary: #FFD600;         /* Bright Yellow */
  --accent-blue: #00E5FF;       /* Electric Blue */
  --accent-pink: #FF4081;       /* Intense Pink */
  --accent-green: #76FF03;      /* Lime Green */
  --accent-orange: #FF9100;     /* Radiant Orange */
  --accent-purple: #D500F9;     /* Vibrant Purple */
  --accent-turquoise: #1DE9B6;  /* Turquoise */
  --accent-magenta: #F50057;    /* Magenta */
  --accent-cyan: #00B8D4;       /* Cyan */

  /* Surfaces & text — Light */
  --bg-primary: #FFF8E1;        /* warm sunny cream; never pure white */
  --bg-secondary: #fefefe;       /* near-white card surface */
  --text-primary: #1A1A1A;
  --text-secondary: #4A4238;
  --text-on-vibrant: #000000;   /* pairs with yellow/lime/orange/blue/turquoise fills */
  --text-success: #0B7A3B;      /* accessible darkened green */
  --text-error: #C4001F;        /* accessible darkened red */

  /* Signature outlines */
  --border-default: #000000;
  --border-width: 3px;
  --border-width-strong: 4px;
  --border-error: #C4001F;
  --border-success: #0B7A3B;

  /* Shape & depth */
  --radius-sm: 20px;
  --radius-md: 25px;
  --radius-lg: 30px;
  --radius-pill: 999px;
  --shadow-sm: 3px 3px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15);
  --shadow-md: 6px 6px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2);

  /* Motion & space */
  --spacing-gap: 1.5rem;
  --transition-fast: 0.15s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);
  --transition-normal: 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);
  --ease-standard: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);

  /* Stacking */
  --z-dropdown: 100;
  --z-modal: 1000;
  --z-toast: 1100;

  /* Type */
  --font-display: 'Fredoka One', 'Baloo 2', cursive;
  --font-base: 'Baloo 2', 'Nunito', sans-serif;
}

.dark {
  --bg-primary: #17102B;        /* deep tropical-night purple */
  --bg-secondary: #241A45;      /* elevated surface */
  --text-primary: #FFF6DE;
  --text-secondary: #CFC3E8;
  --border-default: #FFF3C4;    /* outlines flip to cream so 3–4px borders stay visible */
  --shadow-sm: 3px 3px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.55);
  --shadow-md: 6px 6px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}
```

- **Contrast Pairing (mandatory, both modes):** every light background token pairs with a dark text token and vice versa. On vibrant fills, pair `#FFD600`, `#76FF03`, `#FF9100`, `#00E5FF`, `#1DE9B6`, `#00B8D4` with black text; pair `#FF1744`, `#FF4081`, `#D500F9`, `#F50057` with white text. Where a raw palette color fails WCAG AA as a text-bearing surface (4.5:1 body, 3:1 large), define a darkened `-deep` variant (e.g., `--primary-deep: #D50030`) instead of shipping failing contrast.
- **Light background rule:** never default to pure white. The light page background is the warm cream above; use `#fefefe` where a near-white surface is needed. `#FFFFFF` may appear only as a graphic accent (pattern fills, icon color), never as the page background.
- **Dark-mode adaptation clause:** the theme's signature black outlines switch to `--border-default: #FFF3C4` in dark mode so the sticker-outline aesthetic survives with full visibility.

### 1.3 Mandatory Dark Mode Support
- Define dark tokens in a `.dark` class on `<html>`; `script.js` applies it from `localStorage`, falling back to `matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)')` on first visit.
- Provide a **visible theme toggle** in the header: sun/moon Google Material Symbol, `aria-pressed` state, and a descriptive `aria-label` that updates with state.
- **Persistence:** store the choice in `localStorage` and reapply it as the first executed operation in `script.js`. Background and text variables must flip with zero HTML restructuring.

### 1.4 Flexbox Layout & Mobile-First Alignment
- Build every layout structure with Flexbox.
- **Default alignment rule:** every flex container defaults to `align-items: center` unless an explicitly justified exception is documented in a CSS comment.
- **Mobile-first:** all multi-column layouts collapse to a single column on small viewports; no horizontal scrolling at any width; use `clamp()` for fluid typography.

### 1.5 Framework Default & Tailwind CSS Integration
- Use **Tailwind CSS** (CDN or build) for layout, spacing, and responsive utilities only.
- All themed component styling lives in `style.css` as reusable classes (`.btn`, `.card`, `.input-group`, `.accordion`, …) bound to the CSS variables above — via `@layer`/`@apply` when a Tailwind build is used, or plain CSS alongside the Play CDN.
- Utilities must never carry brand identity; identity lives in the component classes.

### 1.6 Typography & Icons (Google Fonts Mandatory)
- Load **Google Fonts** via `<link>` (with `preconnect`): `Fredoka One`, `Baloo 2`, `Nunito`. Bind them to `--font-display` / `--font-base` as shown above.
- Load **Google Material Symbols (Rounded variant)** — its rounded forms match the theme. Use `<span class="material-symbols-rounded">icon_name</span>`.
- **Forbidden:** raw inline SVGs, local icon font files, emoji used as UI icons.
- Decorative shapes (circles, dots, stripes, hearts) must be built with pure CSS (`border-radius`, `radial-gradient`, `repeating-linear-gradient`) or Material Symbols, and marked `aria-hidden="true"`.

## 2. COMPONENT DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS

### 2.1 Button Component
All states styled via classes; base `.btn` uses `display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; gap: 0.5rem;` with a **44×44px minimum touch target**, `border: var(--border-width-strong) solid var(--border-default)`, `border-radius: var(--radius-pill)`, and `box-shadow: var(--shadow-md)`.
- **Default:** flat vibrant fill or gradient; variants `.btn--primary` (red), `.btn--secondary` (yellow, black text), `.btn--ghost` (transparent, thick border), `.btn--danger`.
- **Hover:** the sticker "lifts" — `transform: translate(-2px, -2px)` with the offset shadow growing (e.g., `8px 8px 0`); `cursor: pointer`.
- **Focus:** distinct `:focus-visible` ring using `--secondary`/`--accent-blue` via `outline` + `outline-offset`, visible in both modes.
- **Active/Pressed:** click transform feedback `transform: scale(0.97)` combined with the offset shadow collapsing (sticker "presses in").
- **Loading (`.btn--loading`):** interactions disabled, double-clicks prevented, CSS spinner shown; button dimensions must not change.
- **Disabled:** `opacity: 0.5`, grayscale, `cursor: not-allowed`.
- **Success/Error:** temporary feedback classes driven by `--text-success` / `--text-error` (used by the newsletter submit).

### 2.2 Card Component
- **Default:** flexible flexbox layout, `background: var(--bg-secondary)`, `border: var(--border-width-strong) solid var(--border-default)`, `border-radius: var(--radius-lg)`, `box-shadow: var(--shadow-md)`.
- **Hover:** elevation shift — shadow grows plus `transform: translateY(-2px)`.
- **Focus-within:** border shifts to `--accent-blue` when a child link/button receives focus.
- **Loading (`.card--skeleton`):** shimmer animation defined in CSS (gradient sweep) preserving layout dimensions — include it in the design system.
- **Empty state (`.card--empty`):** structured fallback with a Material Symbol and clear guidance text — include it in the design system.

### 2.3 Form & Input Requirements
Used by the Final CTA email capture (and reusable anywhere).
- **Structure:** `.input-group` flex container wrapping `<label>`, the input, and a dedicated error feedback element with `aria-live="polite"`.
- **States (all class-driven):** empty; focused (outline ring via `box-shadow` with `--accent-blue`); filled; valid (`.is-valid`: success border + check Material Symbol); invalid (`.is-invalid`: error border, error icon, message in `--text-error`); disabled; read-only.
- Validate the email in `script.js`; never rely on color alone — invalid states show icon + text message.

### 2.4 Modal / Popup Requirements
Applies to any overlay dialog implemented (e.g., a newsletter success dialog after Final CTA submission).
- **States:** opening, open, loading, success/error, closing — all animated via CSS transitions.
- **UX:** centered flex container (`align-items: center`), backdrop overlay, close button using Material Symbol `close`, keyboard focus trapping, closable via `Esc` and overlay click; `role="dialog"`, `aria-modal="true"`, `z-index: var(--z-modal)`.

### 2.5 Accordion (FAQ)
- Button-based ARIA accordion: each trigger is a `<button>` with `aria-expanded` and `aria-controls`; panels animate open/closed via CSS (`grid-template-rows: 0fr → 1fr` transition).
- Chevron Material Symbol rotates on open; triggers show `cursor: pointer`, hover, and `:focus-visible` states; fully keyboard operable.

---

## 3. CORE UX & MICRO-INTERACTION RULES

- **Responsive by default:** fluid sizing, standard breakpoints, zero horizontal overflow; sections use `scroll-margin-top` to offset the sticky header.
- **Smooth animations:** every state change transitions with `var(--transition-normal)`; all pattern and float animations respect `prefers-reduced-motion` (reduce to no movement).
- **Accessibility (a11y):** WCAG AA contrast in both light and dark modes; never communicate state by color alone (pair icons + text); semantic HTML5 landmarks (`header`, `main`, `section` with `aria-labelledby`, `footer`); one `h1` in the Hero with a logical heading hierarchy beneath; logical DOM/focus order; full keyboard operability (no mouse-only interactions); skip-to-content link as the first focusable element; `aria-live` regions for dynamic feedback (form errors, toasts, loading states).
- **Mandatory visual feedback:** every click, hover, and submission triggers a visible state change.
- **Destructive actions:** `.btn--danger` must be visually distinct in both light and dark themes.
- **Toasts:** any transient notification (e.g., newsletter success) renders in an `aria-live` region at `--z-toast`.

---

## 4. DELIVERABLE & OUTPUT FORMAT

- **File structure:** separate `index.html`, `style.css`, and `script.js`. No inline `<script>` blocks beyond a single deferred entry-point reference (`<script src="script.js" defer>`); no inline styles anywhere.
- **Naming convention:** BEM for every custom class (`.pricing-card`, `.pricing-card__title`, `.pricing-card--featured`). Tailwind utilities are allowed only for layout/spacing/responsive concerns. Never mix in other conventions.
- **Copy:** write complete, real, on-theme English copy for every section (invent a fitting brand name and wordmark). **No lorem ipsum.** Footer links without real destinations may use `href="#"` with descriptive labels — this is the only permitted placeholder.

---

## 5. PAGE SECTION SPECIFICATIONS

1. **Header (sticky):** text wordmark in `--font-display`; anchor nav (Features, How It Works, Testimonials, Pricing, FAQ); theme toggle (per 1.3); accessible hamburger (`aria-expanded`/`aria-controls`) opening a dropdown panel at `--z-dropdown` on mobile; closes on `Esc` and link click.
2. **Hero:** full-width, pattern-filled background (CSS dots/stripes overlay) with floating decorative circles and hearts (`aria-hidden`, gentle float animation); `h1` display headline; playful subhead; primary CTA + ghost secondary CTA; trust line or badge.
3. **Features — 3 cards:** each card a different vibrant accent (icon tile, title, description), meeting all 2.2 states; grid → single column on mobile.
4. **How It Works — 3 steps:** numbered badges (vibrant circles with thick outlines), step title + text, dotted CSS connector line that stacks vertically on mobile.
5. **Testimonials:** 3 cards with quote Material Symbol, playful quote copy, CSS initials avatar (vibrant gradient circle + initials), star rating via Material Symbols with an `aria-label` (e.g., "Rated 5 out of 5").

7. **FAQ:** 5–6 questions in the 2.5 accordion.
8. **Final CTA:** large banner with vibrant gradient + pattern overlay; headline; email capture form per 2.3 with submit button showing loading → success/error feedback (toast or modal per 2.4).
9. **Footer:** brand blurb; secondary link columns (e.g., Product, Company, Support: About, Contact, Help Center, Privacy Policy, Terms of Service); social icons (Material Symbols with `aria-label`); copyright line; flex columns with `align-items: center` collapsing on mobile.
