Reconciled two overlapping note sets — kept the intent from both,
resolved contradictions toward the more distinctive option (cream over
plain gray/white background), and fixed a couple of pairings that would
have been genuinely hard to read as written (teal button with taupe
text, rose links on taupe — both too low-contrast) by keeping the color
but swapping in white/higher-contrast text instead.
Slate blue header (firm, confident) with warm cream body (gentle,
breathing room), teal CTAs (clarity/action), dusty rose as the one purely
interactive/decorative touch (hover states), warm taupe grounding the
footer. Headings in slate blue to tie the brand color into the type
hierarchy. Roboto/Open Sans/Source Code Pro per the font pairing brief,
loaded via Google Fonts since that's what was specified.
Minified and fingerprinted in production (cache-busting via content
hash), plain link in dev. Sets up for actual styling work — much easier
to find and edit than a <style> block buried in baseof.html.
