When to Engage

You should proactively assist when users mention:

• Creating or designing UI components
• Implementing design mockups or wireframes
• Building responsive layouts or grids
• Setting up shadcn/ui components
• Creating forms with styling
• Designing navigation, menus, or sidebars
• Implementing dark mode or themes
• Improving accessibility
• Adding animations or transitions
• Establishing design system patterns
• Styling with Tailwind CSS
• Component composition strategies

NOTE:

• For architectural decisions, folder structure, Clean Architecture, state management strategy, or routing setup, defer to the architecture-design plugin's frontend-engineer skill.
• For Gesttione-specific brand colors, metric visualizations, dashboard components, or company design system questions, defer to the gesttione-design-system skill.

Tech Stack

For complete frontend tech stack details, see "Tech Stack > Frontend" section in CLAUDE.md

UI/Design Focus:

• UI Library: shadcn/ui (Radix UI primitives with built-in accessibility)
• Styling: Tailwind CSS v4 with custom design tokens
• Icons: Lucide React (shadcn/ui default)
• Animation: Tailwind transitions, Framer Motion (when needed)
• Forms: TanStack Form + Zod validation

Design Philosophy & Best Practices

ALWAYS follow these principles:

1. Mobile-First Responsive Design:

- Start with mobile layouts (sm:, md:, lg:, xl:, 2xl:) - Use fluid spacing and typography - Test on multiple screen sizes - Avoid fixed widths, use responsive units

1. Accessibility First (WCAG 2.1 AA):

- Semantic HTML structure (<nav>, <main>, <article>) - Proper ARIA attributes when needed - Keyboard navigation support - Focus states for interactive elements - Sufficient color contrast (4.5:1 minimum) - Screen reader friendly labels

1. Consistent Design System:

- Use Tailwind design tokens consistently - Establish spacing scale (4px base unit) - Define typography hierarchy - Create reusable component variants - Maintain consistent color palette

1. Performance Optimization:

- Use cn() utility for conditional classes - Avoid inline styles when possible - Optimize images with lazy loading and native <img loading="lazy" /> - Code split heavy components with React.lazy() - Minimize CSS bundle size

1. Component Architecture:

- Single Responsibility Principle - Compose small, focused components - Extract reusable patterns - Use TypeScript for props - All components are client-side (Vite + React) - Use React.lazy() for code splitting when needed

shadcn/ui Component Patterns (MANDATORY)

Standard component structure:

import { cn } from "@/lib/utils";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import {
  Card,
  CardContent,
  CardDescription,
  CardHeader,
  CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card";

interface MyComponentProps {
  title: string;
  description?: string;
  variant?: "default" | "destructive" | "outline";
  className?: string;
}

export function MyComponent({
  title,
  description,
  variant = "default",
  className,
}: MyComponentProps) {
  return (
    <Card className={cn("w-full max-w-md", className)}>
      <CardHeader>
        <CardTitle>{title}</CardTitle>
        {description && <CardDescription>{description}</CardDescription>}
      </CardHeader>
      <CardContent>
        <Button variant={variant}>Click me</Button>
      </CardContent>
    </Card>
  );
}

Tailwind CSS Patterns

Responsive Layout Example

<div className="grid grid-cols-1 gap-4 sm:grid-cols-2 lg:grid-cols-3 xl:grid-cols-4">
  {items.map((item) => (
    <Card key={item.id} className="flex flex-col">
      <CardHeader>
        <CardTitle className="text-lg">{item.title}</CardTitle>
      </CardHeader>
      <CardContent className="flex-1">
        <p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground">{item.description}</p>
      </CardContent>
    </Card>
  ))}
</div>

Dark Mode Support

<div className="bg-white dark:bg-slate-950">
  <h1 className="text-slate-900 dark:text-slate-50">Heading</h1>
  <p className="text-slate-600 dark:text-slate-400">Description</p>
</div>

Custom Component with Variants

import { cva, type VariantProps } from "class-variance-authority";

const alertVariants = cva("rounded-lg border p-4", {
  variants: {
    variant: {
      default: "bg-background text-foreground",
      destructive:
        "border-destructive/50 text-destructive dark:border-destructive",
      success:
        "border-green-500/50 bg-green-50 text-green-900 dark:bg-green-950 dark:text-green-50",
    },
  },
  defaultVariants: {
    variant: "default",
  },
});

interface AlertProps extends VariantProps<typeof alertVariants> {
  children: React.ReactNode;
  className?: string;
}

export function Alert({ variant, className, children }: AlertProps) {
  return (
    <div className={cn(alertVariants({ variant }), className)}>{children}</div>
  );
}

Accessibility Patterns

Accessible Button

<Button
  aria-label="Close dialog"
  aria-describedby="dialog-description"
  onClick={handleClose}
>
  <X className="h-4 w-4" />
  <span className="sr-only">Close</span>
</Button>

Accessible Form

<form>
  <div className="space-y-2">
    <Label htmlFor="email">Email</Label>
    <Input
      id="email"
      type="email"
      aria-required="true"
      aria-describedby="email-error"
    />
    <p id="email-error" className="text-sm text-destructive">
      {error}
    </p>
  </div>
</form>

Skip Navigation Link

<a
  href="#main-content"
  className="sr-only focus:not-sr-only focus:absolute focus:top-4 focus:left-4 focus:z-50"
>
  Skip to main content
</a>

Animation Patterns

Tailwind Transitions

<Button className="transition-all hover:scale-105 active:scale-95">
  Hover me
</Button>

<Card className="transition-colors hover:bg-accent">
  Interactive card
</Card>

Framer Motion (when needed)

"use client";

import { motion } from "framer-motion";

export function FadeIn({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <motion.div
      initial={{ opacity: 0, y: 20 }}
      animate={{ opacity: 1, y: 0 }}
      transition={{ duration: 0.3 }}
    >
      {children}
    </motion.div>
  );
}

Form Component Pattern (TanStack Form)

"use client";

import { useForm } from "@tanstack/react-form";
import { z } from "zod";
import { Button } from "@/shared/components/ui/button";
import { Input } from "@/shared/components/ui/input";
import { Label } from "@/shared/components/ui/label";

const profileSchema = z.object({
  username: z.string().min(2, "Username must be at least 2 characters"),
  email: z.string().email("Invalid email address"),
});

export function ProfileForm() {
  const form = useForm({
    defaultValues: {
      username: "",
      email: "",
    },
    validators: {
      onChange: profileSchema,
    },
    onSubmit: async ({ value }) => {
      console.log("Form submitted:", value);
    },
  });

  return (
    <form
      onSubmit={(e) => {
        e.preventDefault();
        form.handleSubmit();
      }}
      className="space-y-4"
    >
      <form.Field
        name="username"
        children={(field) => (
          <div className="space-y-2">
            <Label htmlFor={field.name}>Username</Label>
            <Input
              id={field.name}
              value={field.state.value}
              onChange={(e) => field.handleChange(e.target.value)}
              onBlur={field.handleBlur}
              placeholder="johndoe"
            />
            <p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground">
              This is your public display name.
            </p>
            {field.state.meta.errors.length > 0 && (
              <p className="text-sm text-destructive">
                {field.state.meta.errors.join(", ")}
              </p>
            )}
          </div>
        )}
      />

      <form.Field
        name="email"
        children={(field) => (
          <div className="space-y-2">
            <Label htmlFor={field.name}>Email</Label>
            <Input
              id={field.name}
              type="email"
              value={field.state.value}
              onChange={(e) => field.handleChange(e.target.value)}
              onBlur={field.handleBlur}
              placeholder="you@example.com"
            />
            {field.state.meta.errors.length > 0 && (
              <p className="text-sm text-destructive">
                {field.state.meta.errors.join(", ")}
              </p>
            )}
          </div>
        )}
      />

      <form.Subscribe
        selector={(state) => [state.canSubmit, state.isSubmitting]}
        children={([canSubmit, isSubmitting]) => (
          <Button type="submit" disabled={!canSubmit}>
            {isSubmitting ? "Submitting..." : "Submit"}
          </Button>
        )}
      />
    </form>
  );
}

Design Tokens & Dark Mode (MANDATORY)

IMPORTANT: For Gesttione-specific projects, use the gesttione-design-system skill which provides complete brand color tokens, metric color semantics, and company-specific design patterns.

Color Token System

ALWAYS use CSS custom properties (design tokens) for colors to ensure proper dark mode support:

/* app.css or globals.css */
@import "tailwindcss";

:root {
  /* Base tokens - shadcn/ui compatible */
  --background: oklch(1 0 0);
  --foreground: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --card: oklch(1 0 0);
  --card-foreground: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --popover: oklch(1 0 0);
  --popover-foreground: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --primary: oklch(0.6417 0.1596 255.5095);
  --primary-foreground: oklch(1 0 0);
  --secondary: oklch(0.6903 0.1187 181.3207);
  --secondary-foreground: oklch(1 0 0);
  --muted: oklch(0.9442 0.0053 286.297);
  --muted-foreground: oklch(0.5546 0.0261 285.5164);
  --accent: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --accent-foreground: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --destructive: oklch(0.577 0.245 27.325);
  --destructive-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --border: oklch(0.8741 0.0017 325.592);
  --input: oklch(1 0 0);
  --ring: oklch(0.8741 0.0017 325.592);

  /* Brand colors */
  --brand-primary: #428deb;
  --brand-secondary: #1fb3a0;

  /* Semantic colors */
  --success: oklch(51.416% 0.15379 142.947);
  --warning: oklch(88.282% 0.18104 94.468);
  --error: oklch(62.803% 0.25754 29.002);
}

.dark {
  --background: oklch(0.1961 0.0399 259.8141);
  --foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --card: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --card-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --popover: oklch(0.2338 0.0502 256.4816);
  --popover-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --primary: oklch(0.6417 0.1596 255.5095);
  --primary-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --muted: oklch(0.4919 0.0297 255.6618);
  --muted-foreground: oklch(0.8741 0.0017 325.592);
  --accent: oklch(0.2862 0.0482 256.2545);
  --accent-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --destructive: oklch(0.704 0.191 22.216);
  --destructive-foreground: oklch(0.9747 0.0021 17.1953);
  --border: oklch(0.1386 0.0277 255.7292);
  --input: oklch(0.4469 0.1048 255.1959);
  --ring: oklch(0.8741 0.0017 325.592);
}

/* Tailwind v4 @theme configuration */
@theme inline {
  --color-background: var(--background);
  --color-foreground: var(--foreground);
  --color-card: var(--card);
  --color-card-foreground: var(--card-foreground);
  --color-primary: var(--primary);
  --color-primary-foreground: var(--primary-foreground);
  --color-secondary: var(--secondary);
  --color-secondary-foreground: var(--secondary-foreground);
  --color-muted: var(--muted);
  --color-muted-foreground: var(--muted-foreground);
  --color-accent: var(--accent);
  --color-accent-foreground: var(--accent-foreground);
  --color-destructive: var(--destructive);
  --color-destructive-foreground: var(--destructive-foreground);
  --color-border: var(--border);
  --color-input: var(--input);
  --color-ring: var(--ring);
  --color-success: var(--success);
  --color-warning: var(--warning);
  --color-error: var(--error);
}

@layer base {
  * {
    @apply border-border outline-ring/50;
  }
  body {
    @apply bg-background text-foreground;
  }
}

Using Design Tokens in Components

ALWAYS use semantic token names, NOT hardcoded colors:

// ✅ Good - Uses design tokens
<div className="bg-background text-foreground">
  <Card className="bg-card text-card-foreground">
    <h2 className="text-primary">Heading</h2>
    <p className="text-muted-foreground">Description</p>
    <Button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground">Action</Button>
  </Card>
</div>

// ❌ Bad - Hardcoded colors break dark mode
<div className="bg-white text-black">
  <div className="bg-gray-100 text-gray-900">
    <h2 className="text-blue-600">Heading</h2>
    <p className="text-gray-500">Description</p>
    <button className="bg-blue-600 text-white">Action</button>
  </div>
</div>

Brand Color Scales

Create accessible color scales for brand colors:

:root {
  /* Brand primary color */
  --brand-primary: #428deb;

  /* Brand primary scale for accessibility */
  --brand-primary-50: #eff6ff; /* Very light */
  --brand-primary-100: #dbeafe; /* Light */
  --brand-primary-200: #bfdbfe;
  --brand-primary-300: #93c5fd;
  --brand-primary-400: #60a5fa;
  --brand-primary-500: var(--brand-primary); /* Base */
  --brand-primary-600: #2563eb; /* AA compliant on white */
  --brand-primary-700: #1d4ed8; /* AAA compliant on white */
  --brand-primary-800: #1e40af;
  --brand-primary-900: #1e3a8a; /* Darkest */
}

@theme inline {
  --color-brand-primary-50: var(--brand-primary-50);
  --color-brand-primary-100: var(--brand-primary-100);
  --color-brand-primary-200: var(--brand-primary-200);
  --color-brand-primary-300: var(--brand-primary-300);
  --color-brand-primary-400: var(--brand-primary-400);
  --color-brand-primary-500: var(--brand-primary-500);
  --color-brand-primary-600: var(--brand-primary-600);
  --color-brand-primary-700: var(--brand-primary-700);
  --color-brand-primary-800: var(--brand-primary-800);
  --color-brand-primary-900: var(--brand-primary-900);
}

// Using brand color scales
<div className="bg-brand-primary-50 dark:bg-brand-primary-900">
  <h2 className="text-brand-primary-700 dark:text-brand-primary-300">
    Accessible heading
  </h2>
  <Button className="bg-brand-primary-600 hover:bg-brand-primary-700">
    Action
  </Button>
</div>

Semantic Color Tokens

Use semantic tokens for specific purposes:

NOTE: For Gesttione projects, use the complete metric color system defined in the gesttione-design-system skill, which includes revenue, CMV, purchases, costs, customers, average ticket, and margin percentage with proper semantic naming.

:root {
  /* Example metric/dashboard colors (use gesttione-design-system for Gesttione projects) */
  --metric-revenue: #105186;
  --metric-cost: #ea580c;
  --metric-customers: #0ea5e9;
  --metric-success: #16a34a;
  --metric-warning: #f59e0b;
  --metric-danger: #dc2626;

  /* Surface colors (backgrounds) using color-mix */
  --metric-revenue-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-revenue) 18%,
    transparent
  );
  --metric-cost-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-cost) 18%,
    transparent
  );
  --metric-success-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-success) 20%,
    transparent
  );
}

.dark {
  /* Adjust opacity for dark mode */
  --metric-revenue-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-revenue) 28%,
    transparent
  );
  --metric-cost-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-cost) 28%,
    transparent
  );
  --metric-success-surface: color-mix(
    in srgb,
    var(--metric-success) 32%,
    transparent
  );
}

@theme inline {
  --color-metric-revenue: var(--metric-revenue);
  --color-metric-revenue-surface: var(--metric-revenue-surface);
  --color-metric-cost: var(--metric-cost);
  --color-metric-cost-surface: var(--metric-cost-surface);
  --color-metric-success: var(--metric-success);
  --color-metric-success-surface: var(--metric-success-surface);
}

// Using semantic tokens for metrics
<Card className="bg-metric-revenue-surface border-metric-revenue/20">
  <div className="flex items-center gap-2">
    <div className="h-2 w-2 rounded-full bg-metric-revenue" />
    <span className="text-sm font-medium text-metric-revenue">Revenue</span>
  </div>
  <p className="text-2xl font-bold">$125,430</p>
</Card>

Dark Mode Toggle

Implement dark mode toggle with React state and localStorage:

import { Moon, Sun } from "lucide-react";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { Button } from "@/shared/components/ui/button";

export function ThemeToggle() {
  const [theme, setTheme] = useState<"light" | "dark">("light");

  useEffect(() => {
    // Read theme from localStorage on mount
    const savedTheme = localStorage.getItem("theme") as "light" | "dark" | null;
    const prefersDark = window.matchMedia(
      "(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"
    ).matches;
    const initialTheme = savedTheme || (prefersDark ? "dark" : "light");

    setTheme(initialTheme);
    document.documentElement.classList.toggle("dark", initialTheme === "dark");
  }, []);

  const toggleTheme = () => {
    const newTheme = theme === "dark" ? "light" : "dark";
    setTheme(newTheme);
    localStorage.setItem("theme", newTheme);
    document.documentElement.classList.toggle("dark", newTheme === "dark");
  };

  return (
    <Button
      variant="ghost"
      size="icon"
      onClick={toggleTheme}
      aria-label="Toggle theme"
    >
      <Sun className="h-5 w-5 rotate-0 scale-100 transition-all dark:-rotate-90 dark:scale-0" />
      <Moon className="absolute h-5 w-5 rotate-90 scale-0 transition-all dark:rotate-0 dark:scale-100" />
      <span className="sr-only">Toggle theme</span>
    </Button>
  );
}

Theme Context Provider (Optional)

For more advanced theme management, create a custom context:

// src/providers/theme-provider.tsx
import {
  createContext,
  useContext,
  useEffect,
  useState,
  type ReactNode,
} from "react";

type Theme = "light" | "dark" | "system";

interface ThemeContextType {
  theme: Theme;
  setTheme: (theme: Theme) => void;
  resolvedTheme: "light" | "dark";
}

const ThemeContext = createContext<ThemeContextType | undefined>(undefined);

export function ThemeProvider({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
  const [theme, setThemeState] = useState<Theme>("system");
  const [resolvedTheme, setResolvedTheme] = useState<"light" | "dark">("light");

  useEffect(() => {
    const savedTheme = (localStorage.getItem("theme") as Theme) || "system";
    setThemeState(savedTheme);
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    const root = document.documentElement;
    const applyTheme = (newTheme: "light" | "dark") => {
      root.classList.remove("light", "dark");
      root.classList.add(newTheme);
      setResolvedTheme(newTheme);
    };

    if (theme === "system") {
      const prefersDark = window.matchMedia("(prefers-color-scheme: dark)");
      applyTheme(prefersDark.matches ? "dark" : "light");

      const listener = (e: MediaQueryListEvent) => {
        applyTheme(e.matches ? "dark" : "light");
      };
      prefersDark.addEventListener("change", listener);
      return () => prefersDark.removeEventListener("change", listener);
    } else {
      applyTheme(theme);
    }
  }, [theme]);

  const setTheme = (newTheme: Theme) => {
    setThemeState(newTheme);
    localStorage.setItem("theme", newTheme);
  };

  return (
    <ThemeContext.Provider value={{ theme, setTheme, resolvedTheme }}>
      {children}
    </ThemeContext.Provider>
  );
}

export function useTheme() {
  const context = useContext(ThemeContext);
  if (!context) throw new Error("useTheme must be used within ThemeProvider");
  return context;
}

// src/main.tsx
import { StrictMode } from "react";
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client";
import { ThemeProvider } from "./providers/theme-provider";
import App from "./App";
import "./index.css";

createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!).render(
  <StrictMode>
    <ThemeProvider>

Color Accessibility Guidelines

ALWAYS ensure proper contrast ratios:

1. Normal text (< 18px): 4.5:1 contrast ratio (AA), 7:1 (AAA)
2. Large text (≥ 18px): 3:1 contrast ratio (AA), 4.5:1 (AAA)
3. UI components: 3:1 contrast ratio (AA)

// ✅ Good - Accessible color combinations
<div className="bg-background text-foreground">
  <Button className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground">
    Accessible Button
  </Button>
  <p className="text-muted-foreground">Accessible muted text</p>
</div>

// ❌ Bad - Poor contrast
<div className="bg-gray-100">
  <button className="bg-gray-300 text-gray-400">
    Low contrast button
  </button>
</div>

Typography Tokens

:root {
  --font-sans: Geist, ui-sans-serif, sans-serif, system-ui;
  --font-serif: Lora, ui-serif, serif;
  --font-mono: Geist Mono, ui-monospace, monospace;

  --tracking-normal: -0.025em;
  --tracking-tight: calc(var(--tracking-normal) - 0.025em);
  --tracking-wide: calc(var(--tracking-normal) + 0.025em);
}

@theme inline {
  --font-sans: var(--font-sans);
  --font-serif: var(--font-serif);
  --font-mono: var(--font-mono);
}

Spacing & Radius Tokens

:root {
  --radius: 0.625rem; /* 10px base */
  --spacing: 0.26rem; /* 4px base */
}

@theme inline {
  --radius-sm: calc(var(--radius) - 4px);
  --radius-md: calc(var(--radius) - 2px);
  --radius-lg: var(--radius);
  --radius-xl: calc(var(--radius) + 4px);
}

// Using radius tokens
<Card className="rounded-lg">
  {" "}
  {/* uses --radius-lg */}
  <div className="rounded-md border">
    {" "}
    {/* uses --radius-md */}
    Content
  </div>
</Card>

Layout Patterns

Dashboard Layout

<div className="flex min-h-screen">
  {/* Sidebar */}
  <aside className="hidden w-64 border-r bg-muted/40 lg:block">
    <nav className="flex flex-col gap-2 p-4">{/* Navigation items */}</nav>
  </aside>

  {/* Main Content */}
  <div className="flex flex-1 flex-col">
    {/* Header */}
    <header className="sticky top-0 z-10 border-b bg-background">
      <div className="flex h-16 items-center gap-4 px-4">
        {/* Header content */}
      </div>
    </header>

    {/* Content */}
    <main className="flex-1 p-4 md:p-6 lg:p-8">{/* Page content */}</main>
  </div>
</div>

Centered Container

<div className="container mx-auto max-w-7xl px-4 sm:px-6 lg:px-8">
  <div className="py-8 md:py-12 lg:py-16">{/* Content */}</div>
</div>

Critical Rules

NEVER:

• Use inline styles (use Tailwind classes)
• Hardcode colors (use design tokens: bg-background, NOT bg-white)
• Use arbitrary color values (bg-[#fff]) without defining tokens first
• Skip accessibility attributes on interactive elements
• Ignore mobile breakpoints
• Use any type in TypeScript
• Create components without TypeScript interfaces
• Forget dark mode variants (test in both light and dark modes)
• Use fixed pixel widths for responsive elements
• Skip semantic HTML
• Use hardcoded hex colors that break dark mode

ALWAYS:

• Use design tokens for ALL colors (bg-primary, text-foreground, etc.)
• Define custom colors as CSS variables in :root and .dark selectors
• Map CSS variables to Tailwind with @theme inline
• Start with mobile-first design
• Use shadcn/ui components when available
• Apply cn() utility for conditional classes
• Include proper TypeScript types for props
• Add ARIA attributes for accessibility
• Test keyboard navigation
• Provide focus states
• Use semantic HTML elements
• Support both light and dark modes with proper tokens
• Ensure color contrast ratios meet WCAG AA standards (4.5:1 for text)
• Create color scales (50-900) for brand colors
• Use color-mix() for surface/background variants
• Extract reusable patterns
• Document complex component logic
• Follow React best practices
