# Raycast — Style Reference
> Raycast's marketing system reads like an extended product screenshot. The chrome IS the in-product chrome at marketing scale: pure-near-black canvas, hairline 1px borders, command-palette-style cards, Inter typography with the ss03 stylistic set enabled site-wide, white CTA pill, and a small set of saturated category accent colors (yellow / red / green / blue) reserved for extension and feature illustrations. Section rhythm is generous (~96px) but the page never breaks tonal continuity — the whole site sits in one continuous dark mode.

- Do not replace `--color-ink` with an arbitrary neutral.
- Do not flatten documented component states or spacing relationships.
- Do not treat this extracted snapshot as newer than the live source website.

## Layout
