SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Building consistent, accessible, and responsive user interfaces from scratch requires deep knowledge of component libraries, CSS frameworks, and design systems. This Skill provides structured guidance for creating production-quality UIs using shadcn/ui components (built on Radix UI primitives) and Tailwind CSS, eliminating guesswork around accessibility, theming, and responsive layouts. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Accessible Component Library: Install and compose shadcn/ui components (dialogs, forms, tables, navigation) with built-in Radix UI accessibility, keyboard navigation, and screen reader support. - Utility-First Styling: Apply Tailwind CSS for mobile-first responsive layouts, design tokens, dark mode, and theme customization via CSS variables. - Visual Design System: Generate canvas-based visual designs, posters, and brand materials with a philosophy-driven composition approach. - Use Case: A developer building a Next.js dashboard can scaffold shadcn/ui, add Card and Data Table components, apply responsive grid layouts with dark mode variants, and wire up validated forms with react-hook-form and zod. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to build a responsive dashboard page using shadcn/ui Card and Button components with Tailwind CSS grid layout and dark mode support.

Frequently Asked Questions about ckm:ui-styling

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I install shadcn/ui components in a Next.js project?▼

Run npx shadcn@latest init to configure the framework, TypeScript, paths, and theme, then add components with npx shadcn@latest add button card dialog. Components are copied into your codebase for full ownership and customization.

How do I implement dark mode with shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS?▼

Use next-themes for theme toggling combined with Tailwind's dark variant classes and CSS variables defined by shadcn/ui. Apply dark: prefixed utilities to themed elements so colors switch consistently across components.

What is the difference between shadcn/ui and other component libraries?▼

shadcn/ui uses a copy-paste distribution model where components live in your codebase rather than a node_modules package. It builds on Radix UI primitives for accessibility and is styled with Tailwind CSS, giving full control over markup and styling.

Does shadcn/ui support form validation?▼

Yes, the Form component integrates react-hook-form with zod resolvers for schema-based validation. It provides FormField, FormItem, FormLabel, FormControl, and FormMessage primitives for accessible error display.

Can I use Tailwind CSS without shadcn/ui in Vite projects?▼

Yes, install tailwindcss and @tailwindcss/vite, add the plugin to vite.config.ts, and import tailwindcss in your CSS entry file. This gives utility-first styling without the component layer.

Why should I avoid dynamic class names in Tailwind CSS?▼

Tailwind purges unused styles at build time by scanning source files for class names. Dynamically constructed class strings are not detected, so those styles get removed from the final CSS bundle.
