# Temporal

> Extracted from [https://temporal.io/](https://temporal.io/) on 2026-11-12 by Emblematic. Every value below was read from the rendered DOM (computed styles, `document.fonts`, and the fonts Chrome actually used to paint text), not estimated from pixels. When the YAML front matter and this prose disagree, the YAML wins. Copy values from this file exactly; don't transcribe them from memory. Don't copy logos, imagery, illustrations or marketing copy.

## Overview

Temporal uses a dark canvas (#141414) with a palette. Type is set in **Aeonik** (display + body), **Noto Sans Mono** (mono), with 24px body text. Layout: 1171px container, top-sticky navigation, 11 sections. Built with sveltekit, tailwind, contentful, google-tag-manager, vercel.

## Colors

Area-weighted from painted backgrounds, text and borders on the 1440px light capture. Roles are inferred from usage (largest background, most text, interactive fills). Every hex is an exact computed value; a role marked *unverified* is a best guess that has not passed review, so its canonical token (e.g. `primary`) is left out of the front matter.

The site does not change under `prefers-color-scheme: dark`.

## Typography

| Family | Role | Weights | Share of text | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Aeonik** | display, body | 300, 400 | 85.9% | webfont |
| **Noto Sans Mono** | mono | 400, 500, 600 | 13.9% | webfont |

Declared in `@font-face` but not used to paint text on this page: Inter, Aeonik Air. Don't treat these as the page's fonts.

Scale (px): 12, 14, 16, 17, 20, 24, 32, 48, 64. Effective ratio ≈ 1.387 (close to a augmented fourth). Body 24px at line-height 1.6; display 64px with tracking 0em. Headings are sentence case. On a 390px viewport the body is 18px and display 40px.

## Layout

Spacing follows a 8px base unit; the most used steps are 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, 64px. Sections open with about 128px of space before their first line of text. Content sits in a 1171px container on a 14-column grid. Text density 0.162 (text area / page area).

Section order (desktop). Kinds below the review threshold are shown as *section*:

1. **nav** (80px, bg #141414)
2. **hero** — “The world’s best AI runs on Temporal” (595px, bg #141414)
3. **section** — “Watch a Workflow recover from failure” (1930px, bg #141414)
4. **section** — “You have to see it to believe it” (606px, bg #141414)
5. **section** — “Create failproof apps using our SDKs” (1333px, bg #141414)
6. **section** — “Write Activities to handle and retry failure-prone logic” (1320px, bg #141414)
7. **section** — “Get full visibility into your running code” (2792px, bg #141414)
8. **testimonials** (714px, bg #141414)
9. **section** — “100% open-source” (582px, bg #141414)
10. **section** — “Fully battle tested, 9 years in production” (1718px, bg #141414)
11. **footer** (755px, bg #141414)

## Elevation & Depth

Style: subtle. Most used shadows:

- `rgb(0, 0, 0) 8px 8px 0px 0px`

## Shapes

Dominant corner radius 0px; radii in use: 7px, pill. Borders: hairline (1px).

## Components

- **button-primary**: backgroundColor `#B664FF`, textColor `#F8FAFC`, rounded `0px`, padding `8px 16px`, height `44px`, fontFamily `Noto Sans Mono`, fontSize `16px`, fontWeight `500` (e.g. “Try Free”)
- **button-secondary**: backgroundColor `#4E21B6`, textColor `#FFFFFF`, rounded `9999px`, padding `6px 16px`, height `32px`, fontFamily `Noto Sans Mono`, fontSize `14px`, fontWeight `400` (e.g. “Pause”)
- **input**: rounded `0px`, height `40px`, padding `8px 8px`, backgroundColor `#FFFFFF`

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do set body copy in Aeonik at 24px / 1.6.
- Don't introduce font weights beyond 300, 400, 500, 600.
- Do keep corners at 0px for most controls.
- Do snap spacing to multiples of 8px.
- Don't copy this site's logos, illustrations, photography or copy; use the system, not the brand assets.
