Freedam's take

I love how thorough Red Hat is with practical guidance across their brand standards. They outline their core red with exact values alongside secondary and auxiliary palettes like the people palette and information palette. In both the logo and product logo sections, they explicitly warn against generating fedoras or marks with AI. The resources directory is also neatly arranged, displaying clear requirement badges on cards when a login, VPN connection, or Adobe Express license is necessary. It feels structured for real-world teams who need clear rules without any unnecessary friction.
