Design analysis

A nearly invisible utility bar keeps the install link and repository icon available without competing with the product introduction.

## Before you start
Ask what the user's product and brand are, then apply the principles below to that context rather than reproducing this reference.

Build a minimal top navigation for a calm, privacy-conscious software product. Keep it visually quiet and compact: use a transparent or very dark background, a small utility link on the right for the primary action, and an understated icon link beside it. Align the content to a centered max-width container with generous side padding. Use a small sans-serif type size around 12–13px, muted cool-gray text, and a subtle hover color transition. Avoid a full menu if the product only needs one clear action. Keep the bar around 40–56px tall and preserve enough contrast for accessibility.

Never: use logos, product names, copy, illustrations, or imagery from the reference.
