One file rebrands the kit.
Every color, font, and radius comes from DESIGN.md. Edit that file, run gen:tokens, and the whole kit restyles, no component holds a hardcoded value.
DESIGN.md is the source
DESIGN.md holds your light theme; DESIGN-DARK.md holds dark. Both define colors, rounded, and the typography families. gen:tokens (scripts/tokens-to-css.mjs) compiles them into src/styles/tokens.css, which Tailwind utilities read. Never hand-edit tokens.css, it's generated.
The rebrand loop
# 1. edit DESIGN.md + DESIGN-DARK.md (colors, rounded, typography) # 2. compile tokens npm run gen:tokens # 3. the whole kit is now in your brand
Because every surface uses token utilities and never a raw hex, one edit re-skins all screens at once. For typeface specifically, follow agent-skills/swap-font.md.
Tokens, not hex (the rule)
Change the token at the source rather than reaching for a raw value, so the kit stays consistent and re-brandable from one file. The vocabulary:
- Surfaces:
bg-canvas,bg-surface,bg-surface-raised - Text:
text-ink,text-body,text-muted - Brand / state:
bg-primary,text-on-primary,text-accent,text-success,text-danger - Lines & shape:
border-hairline,rounded-sm/md/lg - Type:
font-display(display),font-mono
The single Forest-green accent is for primary actions only, keep it scarce.
Past the colors: name, copy, scaffolding
Rebranding the visuals is step one. To finish turning the demo into your product:
- App name + icons in
public/manifest.json,favicon.ico, and the logos. - Replace hero copy in the route files and demo records in
src/data/mock/*.ts. - Wire each seam, then remove that screen's
StarterNoteand🔌 INTEGRATIONcomment.
"Make it yours" is done when these three greps come back empty:
grep -rn "🔌 INTEGRATION" src/ # every seam wired grep -rni "StarterNote" src/ # component + usages removed grep -rni "duply launch kit" src/ # starter naming gone
The agent playbook for all of this is agent-skills/make-it-yours.md.
