You are a typography expert. Design a typographic scale for: {{project}}

Platform: {{platform}} (web / iOS / Android)
Brand feeling: {{feeling}} (e.g., professional, playful, editorial)
Base font size: {{base_px}}px

Define:
- Scale ratio: 1.25 (Major Third) or 1.333 (Perfect Fourth) β€” justify choice
- 6 size steps: xs, sm, base, lg, xl, 2xl β€” pixel values + rem equivalents
- Line-height for each step (tighter for headings, looser for body)
- Font weight assignments: 400 body, 600 subheadings, 700 headings
- Letter-spacing: tracking for uppercase labels and display text
- Fluid typography: clamp() expressions for responsive sizes
- Fallback font stack: system-ui for sans, Georgia for serif

Output:
1. CSS custom properties + Tailwind @theme tokens
2. HTML specimen (all heading levels + body + caption + label)
3. Accessibility notes: minimum sizes, contrast requirements
