## Design Context
|
|
|
|
### Users
|
|
|
|
Developers and power users who manage multiple AI accounts (Google Gemini, Claude) through a desktop Electron app. They use IDEs like Cursor, OpenCode, and Windsurf. They need to monitor token usage across accounts in real-time to avoid quota exhaustion.
|
|
|
|
### Brand Personality
|
|
|
|
- **Professional**: Clean, precise, no clutter
|
|
- **Technical**: Data-dense but readable, developer-friendly
|
|
- **Efficient**: Information at a glance, minimal clicks
|
|
- 3 words: "precise", "technical", "focused"
|
|
|
|
### Aesthetic Direction
|
|
|
|
- Dark mode primary (this is a developer tool used for long sessions)
|
|
- Deep navy/slate backgrounds, not pure black
|
|
- Sharp accent colors for data visualization (subtle blues, teals, amber for warnings)
|
|
- High information density without visual noise
|
|
- Monospace for numbers/data, clean sans-serif for UI chrome
|
|
- No gradients on text, no glassmorphism, no rounded-everything
|
|
|
|
### Design Principles
|
|
|
|
1. Data first — charts and numbers are the heroes
|
|
2. Every pixel earns its place — no decorative elements
|
|
3. Density over whitespace — developers want to see everything
|
|
4. Motion only for state changes — no gratuitous animations
|
|
5. Consistent with shadcn/ui + Tailwind system already in place
