# Inveetaire Release Candidate Walkthrough (RC-006 & RC-007)

## Status: ✅ COMPLETE

## 1. Brand Palette & Visual Identity (RC-007)

The visual design has been refined to project an elegant, premium, modern, and romantic brand voice suited for couples and luxury wedding professionals (planners, organizers, vendors) rather than a developer tool or generic enterprise dashboard.

- **Primary Background**: White (`#FFFFFF`) as the dominant background color to maximize light, airy, elegant whitespace.
- **Primary Color**: Soft Lavender (`#A855F7` / `bg-purple-600` / `text-purple-600`) as the brand marker.
- **Secondary Color**: Soft Periwinkle Blue / Indigo (`#6366F1` / `bg-indigo-600` / `text-indigo-600`) for supporting highlights.
- **Accent**: Soft Rose (`#F472B6` / `text-pink-500` / `bg-pink-50`) to emphasize romantic wedding details.
- **Neutrals**: Light Slate / Gray scale (`text-slate-800` for readable text, `border-slate-100` for borders, `bg-slate-50/50` for minimal panel contrast). No heavy pitch blacks.

## 2. Design & Layout Improvements (RC-006 & RC-007)

1. **Semantic HTML Structure**:
   - Navigation wrapped in `<header id="site-header" role="banner">`.
   - Content grouped in `<main id="main-content" role="main">`.
   - Sections correctly labeled with `<section>` and `aria-labelledby`.
   - Footer correctly wrapped in `<footer id="contact" role="contentinfo">`.
2. **Container Consistency**:
   - Every major section uses a matching max-width layout: `max-w-7xl mx-auto px-6 lg:px-8`.
   - Margin and padding optimized for vertical rhythm.
3. **Hero Section (Two-Column)**:
   - Left column features the text copy, sub-label badge, and primary/secondary button hierarchy.
   - Right column showcases the Inveetaire Dashboard mockup framed with a light shadow-blur and thin light border, scaling naturally across screen sizes without text overlap.
4. **Heading & Text Hierarchy**:
   - Proper size scale: `h1` (Hero title) → `h2` (Section titles) → `h3` (Card titles).
   - Paragraph line-lengths constrained for comfortable readability.

## 3. Refined Components

- **Sticky Navbar**:
  - Transparent at page top, transitionally blends into a white glass background (`nav-solid`: `rgba(255,255,255,0.85)` with `backdrop-filter: blur(16px)`) when scrolled.
- **Buttons**:
  - **Primary**: Lavender-to-Indigo gradient buttons (`bg-gradient-to-r from-purple-600 to-indigo-600`) with soft violet dropshadows and hover lift transforms.
  - **Secondary**: Light slate borders and light slate bg-hover states for clean contrast.
- **Cards (Why, Features, Packages)**:
  - Consistently styled with `rounded-2xl` or `rounded-3xl` corners, clean `border-slate-100` or `border-slate-200` outlines, soft slate shadows, and subtle micro-lifts on hover (`hover:-translate-y-1` with smooth cubic-bezier transitions).
- **Footer**:
  - Uses slightly offset background (`bg-slate-50`), thin light gray top divider, and clean slate navigation links.

## 4. Verification & Syntax Check

### Responsive Verification
- Checked at standard breakpoints: **320px**, **375px**, **768px** (Tablet), **1024px** (Desktop transition), and **1440px+** (Wide screen).
- Hamburger menu works reliably on mobile viewports via vanilla JS (transparent toggle background, solid drawer overlay).
- Multi-column grids stack into readable single columns on mobile.

### Accessibility Check
- Header, nav, main, section, footer semantic elements used.
- `aria-expanded` toggled programmatically on mobile hamburger menu.
- Screen readers have descriptive `aria-label` tags for buttons, links, and lists.
- Image includes full descriptive `alt` text.

### PHP Syntax Check
- Checked syntax using CLI `php -l`.
- Result: **No syntax errors detected** in `app/views/public/landing.php` ✅
- Tested HTTP response: returns **200 OK** and correct HTML elements ✅
- CSS rebuilt and verified: 60,199 bytes compiled with standard Tailwind v3 escape characters ✅
