Logos

All logo assets are available in the Nyckel google drive. It includes logos, favicons, icons, and covers.

If outside of Nyckel, please request access.

You can also find favicons in the root domain of the repo, and then logos are at /assets/images/logos. Below are three versions, 48x48, 180x180, and 500x500.

Blog Style Guide

Here’s the link for our blog style guide.

Headers

For headers, you can use the standard h tags of h1 to h6. Use p for basic text.

Buttons

Use this code:

<a href="/console" class="btn b-orange" style="font-size:0.75rem">Try for free</a>

You can use b-light-blue as well to have a blue button. Adjust font-size and URL as need.

URLs

  • Use relative urls, not absolute. AKA, /pricing/ not https://www.nyckel.com/pricing/
  • Add the final slash to each URL
