### Official Typography
- **Body Text**: Livvic, sans-serif, regular (400)
- **Headings**: Livvic, sans-serif, semi-bold (600)
- **Buttons**: Onest, sans-serif, UPPERCASE, semi-bold (600)

### Essential Colors
```
Deep Forest:    #00633C  (Container backgrounds, borders)
Bright Green:   #00B368  (Primary actions, buttons)
Light Green:    #00D67A  (Hover states, highlights)
Teal:           #06B6D4  (Clinical/analytical containers)
Orange:         #FF8C42  (Special actions, warnings)
Cream:          #E8DCC8  (User messages, documentation)
```

## Container Template

Use this template for all new container components:

```jsx
<div className="glass rounded-2xl border border-[#00633C]/40 p-6 shadow-lg shadow-[#00633C]/10">
  <h3 className="font-bold text-[#00D67A] text-xl mb-4">SECTION TITLE</h3>
  <p className="text-gray-300">Content in Livvic Regular...</p>
</div>
```

**Key Classes:**
- `.glass` - 10% white opacity background
- `rounded-2xl` - 16px border radius for main containers
- `border-[#00633C]/40` - Deep forest border at 40% opacity
- `shadow-lg shadow-[#00633C]/10` - 3D depth effect

## Button Template

Standard button with botanical green gradient:

```jsx
<button className="bg-gradient-to-r from-[#00633C] to-[#00B368] hover:from-[#00B368] hover:to-[#00D67A] text-white px-4 py-2 rounded-lg shadow-lg hover:shadow-[#00B368]/40 transition-all">
  Button Text (Auto-uppercase in Onest)
</button>
```

**Gradient Shift on Hover:**
- Normal: `#00633C` (Deep forest) → `#00B368` (Bright green)
- Hover: `#00B368` (Bright green) → `#00D67A` (Light green)

shadow-2xl shadow-[#00D67A]/30
```

### Border Radius Hierarchy

- Small elements: `rounded-lg` (8px)
- Circular: `rounded-full`

### Container Opacity
- All containers: `.glass` class (10% white opacity)
- Exception: User messages (100% opacity cream for readability)

## Typography Implementation

Import fonts in App.css:

```css
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Livvic:wght@300;400;500;600;700;800&display=swap');
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Onest:wght@500;600;700&display=swap');

body { font-family: 'Livvic', sans-serif; }
h1, h2, h3 { font-family: 'Livvic', sans-serif; font-weight: 600; }
button {
  font-family: 'Onest', sans-serif;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  letter-spacing: 0.04em;
}
```

**Typography Rules:**
- Headers: Livvic Semi-bold (600)
- Body: Livvic Regular (400)
- Buttons: Onest UPPERCASE with 0.04em letter-spacing
- Icons in buttons: Override uppercase with `lowercase` class

## Color Selection Rules

**Use Cases:**

| Scenario | Color | Hex Code |
|----------|-------|----------|
| Primary actions (buttons, CTAs) | Green gradients | `#00633C` → `#00B368` |
| Special actions (6-Team, toggle) | Orange gradients | `#FF8C42` → `#FFA500` |
| Clinical/analytical | Teal | `#06B6D4` |
| User content (messages) | Cream + brown text | `#E8DCC8` + `#505631` |
| Emergency/urgent | Orangey-red | `#FF6B35` |

**Avoid:**
- ❌ Blue (use teal `#06B6D4` instead)
- ❌ Purple (use teal or orange)
- ❌ Magenta/pink (use orange or green)
- ❌ Generic Tailwind colors (use botanical hex codes)
- ❌ Cyan (use teal `#06B6D4` or light green `#00D67A`)
