"Linear-style UIs look simple, but the theming system has to do real work. Here's how to meet WCAG 2.2 contrast requirements across light, dark, and high-contrast modes whether you're using a UI library or rolling your own tokens."
"As product teams become more data-driven, UX designers are expected to connect design decisions to metrics. But real value comes from interpreting data, questioning assumptions, and bringing human behavior back into the conversation."
"Linear design is a minimalist SaaS aesthetic inspired by Linear. Here's what to use to recreate it from Radix UI + shadcn/ui ecosystems to Linear-style Figma kits plus how to structure pages using modular components and an 8px spacing scale."
Linear-style interfaces require robust theming to satisfy accessibility, especially WCAG 2.2 contrast across light, dark, and high-contrast modes. Design tokens or a UI library should manage colors and states to maintain consistent contrast and predictable component behavior across modes. Designers must pair data-driven metrics with interpretation and human-centered inquiry to derive real value from research. The minimalist Linear aesthetic can be recreated using Radix UI, shadcn/ui, Linear-style Figma kits, modular components, and an 8px spacing system. Teams should distinguish customers from users to improve research focus, prioritization, and messaging across B2C, B2B, and B2B2C products.
