Container tooling with unmistakable blue branding and developer-centric product proof. Docker's public site uses a bright blue palette, white base surfaces, rounded cards, and code/product screenshots that keep the experience technical but accessible.

1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

Overall Aesthetic

Docker feels like developer tooling with product confidence and accessible platform messaging.

Mood & Feeling

  • Developer-first
  • Clean
  • Technical
  • Approachable
  • Platform-oriented

Design Density

Medium density. Platform breadth is balanced with clear sections and cards.

Visual Character

  • Bright Docker blue
  • White and pale-blue surfaces
  • Container and workflow imagery
  • Product screenshots and code examples

3. Typography Rules

Font Stack

css--font-display: "Inter", "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;
--font-sans: "Inter", system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "JetBrains Mono", "SF Mono", Menlo, monospace;

Type Scale

Hero 56/700, H1 40/700, H2 30/700, Body 16/400, Small 14/400

Typography Philosophy

Use precise developer-friendly type with clear hierarchy and strong code support.

4. Component Stylings

css.button-primary { background:#2496ed; color:#fff; border:none; border-radius:999px; min-height:46px; padding:0 20px; font-weight:600; }
.button-secondary { background:#fff; color:#0f172a; border:1px solid #dceaf8; border-radius:999px; min-height:46px; padding:0 20px; }
.card { background:#fff; border:1px solid #dceaf8; border-radius:22px; box-shadow:0 12px 24px rgba(15,23,42,.06); }
.code-card { background:#0f172a; color:#fff; border-radius:20px; font-family:var(--font-mono); }

Component Notes

  • Blue brand accents should stay bright and recognizable
  • Code and workflow proof should remain visible

5. Layout Principles

Spacing Scale

4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64px

Layout Behavior

  • Group by build, ship, and run workflow
  • Support clear developer scanning
  • Use screenshots and diagrams to anchor capability claims

6. Depth & Elevation

Docker uses clean product-card elevation with strong border separation.

7. Do's and Don'ts

Do

  • Keep it developer-native and clear
  • Use blue strongly but structurally
  • Preserve code and product realism

Don't

  • Don’t replace technical proof with generic marketing visuals
  • Don’t muddy the palette with too many extra accents

8. Responsive Behavior

Breakpoints

  • Mobile <768px
  • Tablet 768px-1023px
  • Desktop 1024px+

Responsive Rules

  • Stack code and workflow cards
  • Keep pricing and primary CTA paths obvious

9. Agent Prompt Guide

textDesign this like Docker: bright blue developer-platform branding, white and pale-blue product surfaces, code-aware cards, clean technical typography, and clear build-ship-run workflow storytelling.
