Professional design systems require structured lightness variations for different interface states (such as hover states, borders, backgrounds, and dark-mode layers).
- Shades 50–200: Very light tints designed for subtle backgrounds, hover states, or card borders.
- Shades 400–600: Core primary mid-tones ideal for buttons, icons, and primary branding highlights.
- Shades 700–950: Deep shades optimized for heavy contrast text, dark structural layouts, and deep footers.
