Color Reference

IGNY8 Brand Color Palette

Based on frontend/src/index.css and frontend/src/styles/tokens.css:

--color-brand-50: #EEF2FF;
--color-brand-100: #E0E7FF;
--color-brand-200: #C7D2FE;
--color-brand-300: #A5B4FC;
--color-brand-400: #818CF8;
--color-brand-500: #4F46E5;  /* Primary IGNY8 indigo */
--color-brand-600: #4338CA;
--color-brand-700: #3730A3;
--color-brand-800: #312E81;
--color-brand-900: #1E1B4B;

Primary Brand Color: var(--color-brand-500) = #4F46E5 (Indigo)

Technical Implementation Details

Badge Component Updates

• Changed from variant="default" to variant="soft" tone="brand"

Progress Bars

• Default state: var(--color-brand-500) (indigo)
• Warning state (≥80%): var(--color-warning) (yellow)
• Danger state (≥95%): var(--color-danger) (red)

Gradient Backgrounds

Replaced hardcoded gradients:

/* Before */
background: linear-gradient(135deg, #3b82f6 0%, #2563eb 100%);

/* After */
class="bg-gradient-to-r from-[var(--color-brand-50)] to-[var(--color-brand-100)]"

Notes

• Purple colors (bg-purple-*) were intentionally kept - they're used for specific badges (e.g., WordPress source badge) and are part of the secondary color palette
• Blue colors in general UI components (outside account pages) were not modified - this update focused on account section consistency
• The design system still supports multi-color badges and indicators - only the primary brand interaction color was standardized
