   THE U IN "YOU" — design system (Coursera-style theme)
   Palette: Coursera Blue primary, white/light-grey surfaces, dark grey ink
   Type: Source Sans Pro throughout (Coursera's brand typeface), with
   Noto Sans as the wayfinding/label face — clean, rounded, product-style.
   Signature: the waterline — a hairline horizon that runs through the whole
   site, and an interactive iceberg that reveals the counselling underneath.
