SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? LLM-generated frontend code tends toward generic, clichéd interfaces: centered heroes, purple gradients, Inter font, three-column card rows, and static states. This Skill enforces a rule-based design system that overrides those default biases to produce distinctive, production-quality UI code. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Metric-Driven Design Dials: Configurable DESIGN_VARIANCE, MOTION_INTENSITY, and VISUAL_DENSITY levels (1-10) that deterministically control layout asymmetry, animation complexity, and information density. - Bias-Correction Rules: Bans common AI tells such as neon glows, pure black, Inter font, generic names like "John Doe", Unsplash links, and 3-column card layouts, replacing them with engineered alternatives. - Motion & Architecture Specs: Enforces Framer Motion spring physics, hardware-accelerated transforms, isolated Client Components for interactivity, Tailwind version guards, and a Bento grid paradigm with perpetual micro-interactions. - Use Case: Ask for a SaaS dashboard landing page and receive Next.js code with asymmetric bento grids, skeleton loading states, magnetic buttons using useMotionValue, and a curated font pairing instead of a generic centered hero. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to build a React dashboard or landing page and it will apply the design variance, motion, and density rules automatically.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate non-generic React UI code with AI?

Use a rule-based design skill that bans common AI patterns like centered heroes, Inter font, and purple gradients. This Skill applies deterministic typography, color calibration, and layout diversification rules to produce distinctive React and Next.js interfaces.

What are the DESIGN_VARIANCE, MOTION_INTENSITY, and VISUAL_DENSITY settings?

They are three 1-10 dials controlling layout asymmetry, animation complexity, and information density. The default baseline is 8, 6, and 4, and the values can be overridden per request to shift between minimal static pages and dense animated dashboards.

Does this work with Tailwind CSS v3 and v4?

Yes, but the Skill enforces a version lock by checking package.json first. It prevents v4 syntax in v3 projects and requires @tailwindcss/postcss or the Vite plugin instead of the legacy tailwindcss PostCSS plugin for v4.

Can I use Framer Motion and GSAP together in one component?

No, the Skill explicitly forbids mixing GSAP or ThreeJS with Framer Motion in the same component tree. Framer Motion handles UI and bento interactions, while GSAP or ThreeJS are reserved for isolated full-page scrolltelling or canvas backgrounds with useEffect cleanup.

Why should I avoid h-screen for hero sections on mobile?

Using h-screen causes layout jumping on mobile browsers like iOS Safari because the viewport height changes with the URL bar. The Skill mandates min-h-[100dvh] for full-height sections to keep layouts stable across devices.

What design patterns are banned by this Skill?

Banned patterns include Inter font, pure black, neon glows, gradient headline text, custom cursors, 3-column card rows, generic names like John Doe, Unsplash image links, and filler copy words like Elevate or Seamless.
