SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Frontend code generated by AI often defaults to generic SaaS aesthetics with heavy shadows, gradients, and clichéd typography. This Skill enforces a strict design protocol that produces refined, document-style interfaces with consistent typographic hierarchy and restrained color usage. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Design Constraint Enforcement: Bans generic defaults like Inter/Roboto fonts, heavy drop shadows, gradients, pill-shaped containers, and AI copywriting clichés. - Component Specifications: Provides exact rules for bento grids, CTA buttons, tags, accordions, keystroke UIs, and faux-OS window chrome with precise hex values and border-radius limits. - Motion Guidelines: Defines subtle scroll-entry animations, staggered reveals, and hover states using transform and opacity only. - Use Case: Ask the AI to build a landing page or dashboard, and it will output HTML/React/Tailwind code following the warm monochrome palette (#F7F6F3 backgrounds, #EAEAEA borders, muted pastel accents) with editorial serif headings and generous whitespace. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to build a landing page or dashboard UI following the minimalist-ui protocol for a clean editorial look.

Frequently Asked Questions about minimalist-ui

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a minimalist landing page with AI?

Request a landing page while this Skill is active and the AI will apply the editorial protocol automatically. It uses warm off-white backgrounds, serif hero headings, 1px #EAEAEA borders, and bento-grid layouts without gradients or heavy shadows.

What fonts does this minimalist UI protocol use?

It targets SF Pro Display, Geist Sans, or Helvetica Neue for body text, Lyon Text or Newsreader for editorial serif headings, and Geist Mono or JetBrains Mono for code. Inter, Roboto, and Open Sans are explicitly banned.

Can I use this design protocol with Tailwind CSS?

Yes, the protocol explicitly supports Tailwind alongside HTML, React, and Vue. It references Tailwind utilities like py-24 spacing and max-w-4xl containers while banning default utilities like shadow-lg and rounded-full on large containers.

What colors are allowed in this minimalist design system?

The palette uses pure white or warm bone backgrounds (#F7F6F3), off-black text (#111111), and ultra-light borders (#EAEAEA). Accents are limited to desaturated pastels like pale red #FDEBEC and pale blue #E1F3FE for tags and badges.

When should I not use this minimalist UI style?

Avoid it for brands requiring vibrant primary colors, playful consumer apps, or designs needing rich gradients and 3D effects. The protocol strictly bans bright backgrounds, neon colors, and glassmorphism, so expressive visual identities need a different approach.
