Outline Only
Everything is drawn, nothing is filled — including the primary button.

Construction · Outline
Nothing is filled. Every element is described by a stroke and the page shows straight through it.
Every style renders this same screen, so the only thing changing between two of them is the style. The component above is the file below, running.
Prompt
Design this interface in the Outline Only style. Every element is an outline on the page background. Even the primary action is an outline, distinguished by color and weight rather than by a fill. Build every surface the Outline way: Nothing is filled. Every element is described by a stroke and the page shows straight through it. Use exactly these values: background #ffffff, surfaces #ffffff, text #14181d, secondary text #555c66, accent #1f5fd0 with #ffffff on it; corner radius 4/8/12px; 1px solid borders; no shadows of any kind; system-ui for body at 14px, line height 1.5; 4px spacing grid, regular spacing. Never: filled buttons; tinted surfaces; shadows; solid color blocks. Dark mode uses background #0b0d10, surfaces #0b0d10, text #eff2f6, accent #7fa9f5 — the same style, not an inverted one.
The numbers in this prompt are printed from the tokens below, so it cannot drift from what the specimen renders.
What carries the look
- outlines instead of fills
- outlined primary action
- page-colored surfaces
- weight over fill
What this style refuses
- filled buttons
- tinted surfaces
- shadows
- solid color blocks
The refusals are the half that keeps generated interfaces from converging — a prompt that only says what to add gets the default look.
