/* ============================================================================
   MARGA EVOLEARN — Design system v3
   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Concept: "engineering datasheet". The school’s output is a reviewable
   artefact — a spec, a dashboard, a deployed system. The interface borrows that
   vernacular: hairline rules, monospace field labels, instrument-panel darks,
   and one ambient light source. Palette sampled from the Marga brand board.

   Typefaces are self-hosted (assets/fonts) rather than linked from Google, so
   text paints without a third-party round-trip and the layout cannot be
   reflowed by a change on someone else’s server. Regenerate with
   tools/fetch-fonts.php.
