Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Design System Inspired by Vercel

> Category: Developer Tools
> Frontend deployment. Black and white precision, Geist font.

## 1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

Vercel's website is the visual thesis of developer infrastructure made invisible — a design system so restrained it borders on philosophical. The page is overwhelmingly white (`#ffffff`) with near-black (`#171717`) text, creating a gallery-like emptiness where every element earns its pixel. This isn't minimalism as decoration; it's minimalism as engineering principle. The Geist design system treats the interface like a compiler treats code — every unnecessary token is stripped away until only structure remains.

The custom Geist font family is the crown jewel. Geist Sans uses aggressive negative letter-spacing (-2.4px to -2.88px at display sizes), creating headlines that feel compressed, urgent, and engineered — like code that's been minified for production.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nexu-io/open-design/design-systems/vercel/DESIGN.md@sha256:17d533f0ff2e1b5d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260428.a98096a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
