# Supabase design system

> Captured from https://supabase.com/ on 2026-10-05 by Brooks New Media (https://design.brooksnewmedia.com/styles/supabase/). An independent analysis for reference: Supabase and its marks belong to their owner. Learn from the system; don't copy the brand.

## Overview

Captured in light mode, Supabase is crisp white with near-black ink and a deep green (#0e7e4e) that marks both the primary button and the second line of the headline. Feature cards have fine light outlines and soft 16px corners, and their grey copy sets key phrases in black. Supabase follows the visitor's system theme, so dark mode visitors see a different palette.

- Theme: light
- Mood: light, developer, green

- Outline cards with a fine light line and round them near 16px.
- Mix grey and black inside one sentence to stress the key words.

## Don't

- Fill large backgrounds with the green.
- Give cards heavy drop shadows.
- Design only one theme: this system ships light and dark.
