How the numbers work
Every style has a number that never changes. Your agent reads the full guide for that number - type, colour, spacing, layout, the components and what never to do - and builds to it. The previews are our own re-makings with free fonts; each style credits the work it is after. The full guides are free with a DevThrottle account.
