Components

All component patterns follow the Design Language and use CSS Tokens exclusively. Each pattern below shows a live preview rendered with the control-surface styles, followed by the authoritative CSS. The specific class names in the Next.js app may differ; the CSS values are what’s authoritative.

Raised panel (card)

The primary container for dashboard widgets, content sections, and standalone data panels.

Widget Title

A raised container that sits above the surface — used for widgets and content sections.

.panel {
  background: linear-gradient(180deg, var(--surface-2), var(--surface));
  border: var(--bevel) solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.03);
  border-radius: var(--r-lg);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise);
  padding: 1.2rem 1.4rem;
}

---

Inset well

Used for code blocks, terminal outputs, search inputs, and any content that should appear recessed.

docker ps --all

.well {
  background: var(--surface-sink);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-inset);
  border: var(--bevel) solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
  border-radius: var(--r);
  padding: 1rem 1.2rem;
}

---

Glass header

The top navigation bar. Reserved for site-level chrome — do not reuse for content panels. (The header of this very page is a live example.)

.site-header {
  background: var(--glass-bg);
  backdrop-filter: var(--glass-blur);
  -webkit-backdrop-filter: var(--glass-blur);
  border-bottom: var(--bevel) solid var(--line);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-header);
  position: sticky;
  top: 0;
  z-index: 100;
}

---

Navigation item

Sidebar navigation links use a 2-column flex layout: indicator dot (or icon) + label. Hover an item below to see the accent spine and slide; the highlighted item is the current page.

Dashboard Containers Monitoring

.nav-link {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 0.55em;
  color: var(--ink-dim);
  border-radius: var(--r-sm);
  padding: 0.42em 0.7em 0.42em 0.65em;
  margin: 0.12em 0;
  border-left: 2px solid transparent;
  font-weight: 500;
  text-decoration: none;
  transition: color var(--tr), background var(--tr), border-color var(--tr), padding-left var(--tr);
}

.nav-link:hover {
  color: var(--ink);
  background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent) 9%, transparent);
  border-left-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent) 50%, transparent);
  padding-left: 0.85em;
}

.nav-link[aria-current="page"] {
  color: var(--ink);
  font-weight: 600;
  background: linear-gradient(180deg, var(--surface-2), var(--surface));
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise);
  border-left-color: var(--accent);
}

Button

Primary buttons read as raised keys that press in on click; the accent variant carries the section glow.

Deploy Confirm

.btn-primary {
  background: linear-gradient(180deg, var(--surface-2), var(--surface));
  color: var(--ink);
  border: var(--bevel) solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.08);
  border-radius: var(--r-sm);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise);
  padding: 0.45em 1.1em;
  font-weight: 600;
  font-size: var(--fs-1);
  cursor: pointer;
  transition: filter var(--tr), box-shadow var(--tr);
}

.btn-primary:hover {
  filter: brightness(1.08);
}

.btn-primary:active {
  box-shadow: var(--sh-press);
  filter: brightness(0.96);
}

/* Accent variant */
.btn-accent {
  background: var(--accent);
  color: var(--bg);
  border-color: transparent;
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise), var(--sh-glow);
}

---

Badge / tag

Small inline status indicators.

Running Healthy Degraded Offline Unknown

Table

Data tables use a raised surface with a recessed header. The table below is rendered with the standard documentation table styles, which match .data-table.

Service	State	Uptime
litellm	Running	99.98%
portainer	Running	99.95%
uptime-kuma	Degraded	97.10%

.data-table {
  background: var(--surface-2);
  border-radius: var(--r);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise);
  border: none;
  width: 100%;
  border-collapse: collapse;
  overflow: hidden;
}

.data-table th {
  background: var(--surface-sink);
  color: var(--ink);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-inset);
  font-weight: 700;
  font-size: var(--fs-1);
  text-align: left;
  padding: 0.6em 1em;
}

.data-table td {
  border-top: var(--bevel) solid var(--line);
  color: var(--ink-dim);
  padding: 0.55em 1em;
}

.data-table tr:hover td {
  background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.02);
}

Inline code chip

Used in body text: docker compose up -d — recessed, monospace, accent ink.

code:not(pre code) {
  font-family: var(--font-mono);
  font-size: 0.84em;
  background: var(--surface-sink);
  color: var(--c-ops-bright);
  padding: 0.12em 0.42em;
  border-radius: var(--r-sm);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-inset);
}

Callout / aside

Used for warnings, tips, and notes in documentation. The left spine carries a section accent.

Note — informational context the reader should keep in mind.

Tip — a recommended shortcut or best practice.

Caution — proceed carefully; this has side effects.

Danger — destructive or irreversible action.

.callout {
  background: var(--surface-2);
  border: none;
  border-left: 4px solid var(--accent);
  border-radius: var(--r);
  box-shadow: var(--sh-raise);
  padding: 1rem 1.2rem;
  font-size: var(--fs-1);
}

/* Colour variants matching section accents */
.callout--note    { border-left-color: var(--c-ops); }
.callout--tip     { border-left-color: var(--c-consulting); }
.callout--caution { border-left-color: var(--c-admin); }
.callout--danger  { border-left-color: #ef4444; }
