Do & don’t
What makes it Retool
- Dark charcoal background with warm off-white (not pure white) text
- Pill-shaped outline buttons next to a solid cream 'inverted' button
- Small rounded badge tags like 'NEW' and 'Public Beta' in muted dark green
Do
- Use warm off-white text on dark charcoal, not pure white on black
- Keep most buttons as thin outline pills, reserve the solid cream button for the top action
- Use small muted badges to flag new features
Don’t
- Don't use bright saturated colours for emphasis
- Don't use pure white or pure black
- Don't make every button solid-filled
For AltLeads: Borrow the dark, serious builder theme for an internal ops/admin screen used by the calling team, keeping actual lead data on a plain light surface.
