SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Design-shotgun helps you quickly escape “one bad-looking screen” by generating multiple UI design directions, then collecting structured feedback so you can converge on something that works.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-variant UI exploration: Quickly produces several design variants for the same UI goal so you can compare styles, layouts, and interaction patterns rather than guessing.
  • Comparison-board iteration loop: Opens a comparison view and captures feedback in a structured way, then uses that feedback to refine the next round of variants.
  • Project-aware guidance: Reuses prior approved variants and relevant design system documentation (DESIGN.md plus recent design docs) to stay consistent with an existing visual direction.

Quick Start

Tell the assistant: “Explore design variants for this UI feature and show me options, then help me pick the best direction.”

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate multiple UI design variants for the same feature?

To generate multiple UI design variants, request visual brainstorming options for a specific feature. The tool produces several alternative directions with different styles, layouts, and interaction patterns so you can compare them side by side rather than guessing.

What is a comparison board iteration loop for UI design?

A comparison board iteration loop is a structured process that displays multiple design variants together, captures your feedback on each direction, and applies that feedback to refine the next round of UI exploration until you converge on a working design.

How do I keep design variants consistent with my existing design system?

To keep design variants consistent with your existing design system, the tool reuses prior approved variants and references relevant design documentation such as DESIGN.md to maintain alignment with your established visual direction and project context.

Can I use visual brainstorming when I am unsure about my current UI look?

Yes, you can use visual brainstorming when your current UI look is uncertain. The tool is designed specifically for standalone design iteration, generating multiple alternative directions to help you compare options and escape a single unsatisfactory screen.

What is the best way to collect structured feedback on UI design options?

The best way to collect structured feedback on UI design options is through a comparison-board iteration loop, which presents multiple variants in a single view and systematically captures your preferences to drive the next refinement cycle.

When should I not use a multiple variant approach for UI exploration?

You should avoid a multiple variant approach for UI exploration when your design direction is already finalized and approved, as the tool is built for visual brainstorming and iterative refinement rather than implementing a single confirmed specification.
