SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Starting a new product or unifying an inconsistent UI often results in scattered one-off values and generic-looking interfaces. This Skill codifies a brand into a complete token layer and component language so every downstream page looks intentional and consistent. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Token Generation: Builds color ramps with semantic tokens and verified WCAG AA contrast, modular type scales, spacing, radius, elevation, and motion tokens, including dark mode and reduced-motion support. - Component Specifications: Defines variants, states, sizing, and accessibility notes for core components like buttons, inputs, cards, navs, and modals, all expressed in tokens. - Real File Exports: Produces a Tailwind config extension, a tokens.css file with CSS custom properties for light and dark modes, and a design-system.md usage doc with do/don't examples. - Use Case: Given a brand brief describing a warm, editorial personality, generate the full token set and component specs, then hand off to a landing page builder that consumes those tokens. ## Quick Start Generate a complete design system with color tokens, type scale, and component specs from my brand brief, exported as a Tailwind config and CSS variables.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a design system from a brand brief?▼

Provide brand personality adjectives, audience context, existing assets like logos or locked colors, and anti-references. The Skill builds color, type, spacing, and motion tokens, then exports them as a Tailwind config, CSS variables, and a usage document.

What files does a design system export include?▼

The export includes a tailwind.config extension (or @theme for Tailwind v4), a tokens.css file with CSS custom properties for light and dark modes, and a design-system.md usage doc covering palette, type scale, spacing, motion, and component specs.

Does the design system support dark mode and Tailwind v4?▼

Yes, every token set includes a dark mode palette, and exports support both the classic tailwind.config extension and the @theme syntax for Tailwind v4. Reduced-motion handling is also included in the motion tokens.

How is color contrast accessibility handled in generated tokens?▼

Color tokens are built as full ramps from 50 to 900 per hue with semantic tokens like surface, text, muted, and accent. Contrast is verified to meet WCAG AA minimum for body text before export.

When should I not use a generated design system?▼

Avoid it when a brand has strictly locked guidelines that forbid deviation, since the Skill applies house rules like avoiding purple and emoji unless the brand explicitly overrides them. It also targets web UI, not print or native mobile design systems.
