## Prompt

A red #dc2626 button skewed 12 degrees to lean forward (the label span is counter-skewed so text stays upright), white uppercase 15px extra-bold text with 0.06em tracking, 4px radius, 14px by 28px padding, and a hard 4px offset shadow in #7f1d1d. Hover shifts it 2px up-left and grows the shadow to 6px, colour #b91c1c; active presses it down-right onto a 2px shadow. Focus 2px red outline.
