mph-synthwave-theme

A core styling skill for generating web interfaces, dashboards, and UI components that perfectly match the "Momentum Phinance" (TraderDaddy) brand aesthetic.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user asks to build or style a UI, dashboard, widget, or web app, OR whenever the user mentions "my style", "my theme", "synthwave", "traderdaddy", "bloomberg terminal", or "neon".

The Aesthetic

The visual language is a fusion of a high-performance Bloomberg Terminal and a sleek Cyberpunk/Synthwave design. It relies on extremely dark backgrounds to reduce eye strain for traders, punctuated by intense, high-contrast neon accents to draw attention to critical data.

1. Typography

• Primary Data / Numbers: JetBrains Mono or Fira Code. Use monospace fonts for all tables, ticker symbols, prices, and metrics so columns align perfectly.
• UI / Body Text: Inter, Roboto, or Outfit. Clean, legible sans-serif for general text.
• Never use browser default fonts.

2. Color Palette

• Background: Very dark, slightly cool grays/blacks.
  • Main Body: #0a0a0c
  • Panels/Cards: #121216 or rgba(20, 20, 25, 0.7) (Glassmorphism)
• Primary Accents (Neon):
  • Neon Cyan: #00f0ff (Used for primary borders, active states, key branding)
  • Neon Pink: #ff003c (Used for alerts, short positions, destructive actions)
  • Neon Green: #00ff88 (Used for long positions, positive PnL, "EXECUTE" actions)
  • Electric Purple: #b026ff (Secondary accent)
• Text:
  • Primary: #ffffff or #eaeaea
  • Secondary/Muted: #888899

3. Glassmorphism & Depth

• Do not use flat, solid boxes for dashboard cards.
• Use semi-transparent backgrounds with a subtle backdrop filter.

  background: rgba(20, 20, 25, 0.6);
  backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
  -webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
  border: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.05);
  box-shadow: 0 8px 32px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.37);
  

4. Micro-animations & Glows (The "Pop")

• Interactive elements (buttons, active rows, hovered cards) must feature a distinct neon glow.
• Buttons: Give buttons a faint background tint of their neon color (e.g., rgba(0, 255, 136, 0.1)), a solid neon border, and on hover, intensify the background and add a box-shadow glow.

  .btn-execute {
      background: rgba(0, 255, 136, 0.1);
      border: 1px solid #00ff88;
      color: #00ff88;
      box-shadow: 0 0 8px rgba(0, 255, 136, 0.2);
      transition: all 0.2s ease;
  }
  .btn-execute:hover {
      background: rgba(0, 255, 136, 0.2);
      box-shadow: 0 0 15px rgba(0, 255, 136, 0.5);
  }
  

5. Layout Rules

• Density: High density, terminal-style. Minimize whitespace where data needs to be compared, but keep it readable.
• Grids/Borders: Use subtle, thin lines (1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.1)) to separate sections.
• Corners: Slight rounding (border-radius: 4px to 8px), not fully pill-shaped.

Implementation Workflow

1. If the user asks for a UI in "their style", automatically inject the CSS rules above.
2. Ensure <link> tags for Inter and JetBrains Mono are included via Google Fonts.
3. Review the design against the aesthetic rules: Does it look like a premium, modern, synthwave trading terminal? If not, increase the contrast and add more glassmorphism/glow.
