FAQ
When should I use this skill?
Use this skill when building landing pages, dashboards, app interfaces, or components that require a strong visual identity, intentional typography, layout, and motion, rather than just functional code.
Does this skill support existing design systems?
Yes. When working within an existing product, it encourages preserving the established design system while aligning new interfaces with the chosen visual direction.
Are there any limitations or anti-patterns I should be aware of?
Avoid defaulting to generic SaaS layouts, random color choices, placeholder typography, or excessive motion that doesn't support hierarchy or user action. The interface should feel intentional and production-ready.
What platforms or front-end frameworks is this skill compatible with?
The documentation does not specify particular frameworks. The principles are applicable to web development generally, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript-based environments.
What quality checks should be performed before delivering an interface?
Ensure the interface has a clear visual point of view, intentional typography and spacing, coherent color and motion, and does not appear generic or AI-generated. It must be production-grade and maintain accessibility and responsiveness.
