||
## Color Philosophy
|
||
|
||
This color scheme follows Material Design 3 principles with three main color roles optimized for productivity software:
|
||
|
||
- **Primary (Blue)** - Represents productivity, trust, and professionalism. Used for main actions and navigation.
|
||
- **Secondary (Purple)** - Represents planning and organization. Used for supporting UI elements.
|
||
- **Tertiary (Teal)** - Represents progress and data visualization. Used for highlights and metrics.
|
||
|
||
The system uses **tonal elevation** instead of shadows to create depth, providing a modern, clean interface suitable for extended desktop work sessions.

|
||
|
||
## Surface Elevation System
|
||
|
||
Material Design 3 uses **tonal elevation** to create depth. Higher surfaces are lighter (in light mode) or darker (in dark mode).
|
||
|
||
### Hierarchy (from highest to lowest elevation)
|
||
|
||
1. **surface-container-lowest** - Dialogs, modals, popovers
|
||
2. **surface-container-low** - Cards, panels, elevated containers
|
||
3. **surface-container** - Default container background
|
||
4. **surface-container-high** - Nested containers, grouped elements
|
||
5. **surface-container-highest** - Background-level containers
|
||
|
||
### Tailwind Usage
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
bg-surface-container-lowest
|
||
bg-surface-container-low
|
||
bg-surface-container
|
||
bg-surface-container-high
|
||

## Implementation Guide
|
||
|
||
### Setting Up the Color System
|
||
|
||
The color system is defined in `/src/styles/theme.css`. All colors use CSS custom properties (variables) for easy theming.
|
||
|
||
### Tailwind CSS Configuration
|
||
|
||
All color tokens are automatically available as Tailwind classes through the `@theme inline` directive:
|
||
|
||
```css
|
||
/* Colors are available as: */
|
||
bg-primary
|
||
text-primary-foreground
|
||
border-primary-container
|
||
bg-surface-container-low
|
||
bg-status-in-progress
|
||
bg-priority-high
|
||
/* etc. */
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Dark Mode Toggle
|
||
|
||
Toggle dark mode with JavaScript:
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
// Toggle dark mode
|
||
document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark');
|
||
|
||
// Set dark mode
|
||
document.documentElement.classList.add('dark');
|
||
|
||
// Set light mode
|
||
document.documentElement.classList.remove('dark');
|
||
|
||
// React component example
|
||
function DarkModeToggle() {
|
||
const [isDark, setIsDark] = useState(false);
|
||
|
||
const toggleDark = () => {
|
||
setIsDark(!isDark);
|
||
document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark');
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
return (
|
||
<button onClick={toggleDark}>
|
||
{isDark ? '☀️ Light Mode' : '🌙 Dark Mode'}
|
||
</button>
|
||
);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Using with shadcn Components
|
||
|
||
All shadcn/ui components work seamlessly with this color system. The legacy color tokens (card, popover, muted, accent, destructive) are mapped to appropriate MD3 colors.
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
// shadcn Button component automatically uses the color system
|
||
<Button>Primary Action</Button>
|
||
<Button variant="secondary">Secondary Action</Button>
|
||
<Button variant="destructive">Delete</Button>
|
||
<Button variant="outline">Outlined</Button>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Accessibility
|
||
|
||
### Contrast Ratios
|
||
|
||
All color combinations meet **WCAG AA** standards:
|
||
|
||
- **Normal text**: Minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio
|
||
- **Large text**: Minimum 3:1 contrast ratio
|
||
- **UI components**: Minimum 3:1 contrast ratio
|
||
|
||
### Color Blindness Considerations
|
||
|
||
The color system is designed to be distinguishable for users with common types of color blindness:
|
||
|
||
1. **Status colors** use distinct hues that remain distinguishable in deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia
|
||
2. **Priority levels** use a progression from cool (low) to warm (high) colors
|
||
3. **All status indicators** should include text labels, not just color
|
||
|
||
### Best Practices for Accessibility
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
// ✅ Good: Color + Icon + Text
|
||
<span className="bg-status-done text-white px-3 py-1 rounded-full">
|
||
<CheckIcon className="w-4 h-4 inline" />
|
||
Done
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
// ❌ Bad: Color only
|
||
<span className="w-4 h-4 bg-status-done rounded-full" />
|
||
|
||
// ✅ Good: Semantic HTML + ARIA
|
||
<button
|
||
className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground"
|
||
aria-label="Start new sprint"
|
||
>
|
||
Start Sprint
|
||
</button>
|
||
|
||
// ✅ Good: Status with aria-label
|
||
<div
|
||
className="bg-status-blocked"
|
||
role="status"
|
||
aria-label="This item is blocked"
|
||
>
|
||
Blocked
|
||
</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Best Practices
|
||
|
||
### 1. Use Surface Elevation for Depth
|
||
|
||
❌ **Don't use shadows for elevation**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<div className="shadow-lg">Card</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
✅ **Do use surface tones**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<div className="bg-surface-container-low">Card</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 2. Use Container Variants for Lower Emphasis
|
||
|
||
❌ **Don't reduce opacity**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<button className="bg-primary opacity-50">Secondary Action</button>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
✅ **Do use container variants**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<button className="bg-primary-container text-primary-container-foreground">
|
||
Secondary Action
|
||
</button>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 3. Consistent Status Colors
|
||
|
||
❌ **Don't use arbitrary colors**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<span className="bg-green-500">Complete</span>
|
||
<span className="bg-emerald-600">Finished</span>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
✅ **Do use semantic status colors**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<span className="bg-status-done">Complete</span>
|
||
<span className="bg-status-done">Finished</span>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 4. Semantic Color Usage
|
||
|
||
❌ **Don't use colors for decoration only**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<div className="bg-error">This is important information</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
✅ **Do use colors for their semantic meaning**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<div className="bg-error text-error-foreground">
|
||
Error: Failed to save changes
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<div className="bg-info text-info-foreground">
|
||
This is important information
|
||
</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 5. Proper Text Contrast
|
||
|
||
❌ **Don't forget foreground colors**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<button className="bg-primary">Click me</button>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
✅ **Do include foreground colors**
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground">Click me</button>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 6. Layering and Nesting
|
||
|
||
When nesting containers, move down the elevation scale:
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
<div className="bg-surface-container-low p-6">
|
||
{/* Outer container */}
|
||
|
||
<div className="bg-surface-container p-4">
|
||
{/* Inner container - lower elevation */}
|
||
|
||
<div className="bg-surface-container-high p-3">
|
||
{/* Deepest container - lowest elevation */}
|
||
</div>
|
||
</div>
|
||
</div>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 7. Interactive States
|
||
|
||
```tsx
|
||
// Buttons with hover states
|
||
<button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground hover:opacity-90 transition-opacity">
|
||
Click me
|
||
</button>
|
||
|
||
// Cards with hover states
|
||
<div className="bg-card border border-border hover:border-primary transition-colors cursor-pointer">
|
||
Interactive card
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
// Focus states (automatically handled by theme)
|
||
<input className="border border-border focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary" />
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
