# System Overview

Aurora Core is a **liquid-glass enterprise system** built around disciplined hierarchy rather than decorative effects.

## Positioning
- 60% liquid glass
- 20% material structure
- 20% cyberpunk pulse

## What it is trying to do
Aurora Core aims to feel premium, luminous, and modern **without sacrificing enterprise readability**. It is intentionally more atmospheric than default Material patterns, but it resists gimmicks like scanlines, chromatic aberration overload, reactive backgrounds, and novelty motion.

## Core identity
- **Gold** = hero, action, focus
- **Amber** = warning, caution, threshold
- **Purple** = process, analysis, secondary action
- **Blue** = system, info, progress, storage
- **Green** = success, health, pass
- **Red** = error, failure, destructive

## Foundational truths
1. Gold emits light.
2. Amber does not.
3. Depth is optical, not shadow-based.
4. Not every semantic needs the same amount of glow.
5. The slider and toggle are the identity carriers.
6. Progress tracks inherit semantic tint from their fill.

## What Aurora Core should feel like
- controlled
- technical
- premium
- dark-mode-native
- production-safe
- visually distinctive but not attention-hungry
