What is the Pastel App UI design style?

A mobile-first pastel interface for community and content apps, using warm cream, lilac, mint, butter yellow, and coral to create a friendly but legible experience. Its core principle: Pastel App UI 不追求把所有元素都染成浅色，而是用暖奶油色托住内容，用少量粉彩色提示状态与情绪。它适合风格发现、生活方式、收藏和社区类手机应用。核心原则： - 颜色表达情绪，深色文字表达结构 - 卡片适合触摸，按钮拥有明确主次 - 评分、收藏和快捷反馈在首屏附近可见 - 移动端优先，底部导航保持稳定 - 柔和不等于低对比，正文和控件保持可读

What colors does Pastel App UI use?

Pastel App UI uses #66508f as its primary color and #fff8f0 as its secondary color, with accent colors #d9c7ff, #cbefdf, #ffe49a, #ffb5a7. Every hex value can be copied from the palette on this page.

How do I apply Pastel App UI correctly?

Key practices: 使用暖奶油色作为主背景，粉彩色只承担分组和状态提示. 使用 rounded-2xl 到 rounded-3xl 的卡片与触控控件. 移动端优先设计底部导航、单列信息流和拇指可达操作.

What are common mistakes with Pastel App UI?

Avoid: 不要让浅色文字放在浅色背景上. 不要使用荧光色或高饱和渐变覆盖整个页面. 不要把所有卡片做成同一颜色和同一层级.

How do I prompt AI to generate Pastel App UI UI?

Copy the ready-made AI prompt on this page — it bundles the design tokens and component rules — and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or v0. Effective prompts include the keywords: pastel app, mobile-first, community, soft UI.

AI Implementation

Copy the Hard Prompt first, then use the spec when needed

Use the Hard Prompt by default to generate UI. Use the Design Spec to understand, modify, and review the style. Use the Creative Brief for early exploration.

Hard Prompt

Use this by default: copy it, append the concrete requirement, and let AI generate consistent production UI.

When to use

When AI should generate UI directly
When repeated outputs must stay consistent
When style drift is the main risk

How to use

Copy the full prompt
Append the concrete requirement
Review against forbidden rules and UI states

STYLEKIT_STYLE_REFERENCE
style_name: Pastel App UI
style_slug: pastel-ui
style_source: /styles/pastel-ui

# Hard Prompt

## When To Use
Use this when you want AI to generate code with strict style consistency. It is the safest default for production UI.

## How To Use
- Copy the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or another coding assistant.
- Append the concrete product/page requirement after the prompt.
- After generation, check the forbidden rules and interaction states before accepting the output.

Strictly follow the style rules below and maintain consistency. No style drift allowed.

## Requirements

- Prioritize style consistency first, then creative extension.
- When conflicts arise, treat prohibitions as the highest priority.
- Self-check before output: verify colors, typography, spacing, and interactions still match this style.

## Style Rules

STYLE: Pastel App UI

MUST USE:
- Warm cream backgrounds with pastel accents reserved for grouping and state
- Deep plum or charcoal text for readable headings and body copy
- rounded-2xl to rounded-3xl touch surfaces
- Mobile-first single-column flows and a stable bottom navigation
- Visible save, use, rating, and quick-feedback actions near the decision point
- Soft borders and tinted shadows instead of heavy glass panels

MUST AVOID:
- Low-contrast light text on pastel backgrounds
- Full-page neon gradients or excessive glassmorphism
- Tiny touch targets and dense desktop tables on mobile
- Hiding core actions at the bottom of a long detail page

INTERACTION:
- Use 200-300ms transitions, subtle lift on hover, and scale-[0.98] on press
- Respect prefers-reduced-motion
- Keep the primary action reachable by the thumb

COLOR ROLES:
- Background: #fff8f0
- Primary action: #66508f
- Soft surfaces: #d9c7ff and #cbefdf
- Emotional accents: #ffe49a and #ffb5a7
- Text: #332d3d

## Self-Check (Verify Before Shipping)

If any item fails, the style has drifted — fix before shipping.

- [ ] No purple-to-blue gradients
- [ ] No overused fonts (Inter, Roboto, Geist, Fraunces, Plus Jakarta Sans)

- [ ] No bounce or elastic easing curves
- [ ] Animations have a prefers-reduced-motion fallback
- [ ] Body text line length capped at 65-75 characters
- [ ] No side-stripe accent borders (border-left/right > 1px)

- [ ] No tiny uppercase tracked eyebrow labels above every section heading
