Substack design: colors, fonts and an AI prompt.

Substack's website sets its type in Spectral, on a light #FFFFFF canvas with #363737 text and a #FF6719 accent. Copy the palette and fonts, or a ready prompt to build something original in this style with Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable or v0.

      What font does Substack use?

      Substack's website sets both headings and body text in Spectral, with ui-monospace for code. Body text is 14px, section headings 20px and the largest display type 104px, at weight 600. If you can't use Spectral, ask your AI for the closest free match and keep the sizes and weights.

      How do I build a site that looks like Substack with AI?

      Open the Prompt tab above, change its first line to what you are building, and paste it into Lovable, v0, Bolt, Claude Code or Cursor. For a whole project, install the Claude skill or the Cursor rule instead, so every screen keeps the style. Build something original: keep Substack's look, not its name, logo or copy.
