# UI/UX Pro Max - Design Intelligence

Searchable database of UI styles, color palettes, font pairings, chart types, product recommendations, UX guidelines, and stack-specific best practices.

## Prerequisites

Check if Python is installed:

```bash
python3 --version || python --version
```

If Python is not installed, instruct the user to install it based on their OS.

---

## How to Use This Skill

When user requests UI/UX work (design, build, create, implement, review, fix, improve), follow this workflow:

### Step 1: Analyze User Requirements

Extract key information from user request:
- **Product type**: SaaS, e-commerce, portfolio, dashboard, landing page, etc.
- **Style keywords**: minimal, playful, professional, elegant, dark mode, etc.
- **Industry**: healthcare, fintech, gaming, education, etc.
- **Stack**: React, Vue, Next.js, or default to `html-tailwind`

### Step 2: Search Relevant Domains

Use `run_shell_command` to execute the `search.py` script multiple times to gather comprehensive information. Search until you have enough context.

**Command Format:**

```bash
python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "<keyword>" --domain <domain>
```

**Recommended search order:**

1. **Product** - Get style recommendations for product type
2. **Style** - Get detailed style guide (colors, effects, frameworks)
3. **Typography** - Get font pairings with Google Fonts imports
4. **Color** - Get color palette (Primary, Secondary, CTA, Background, Text, Border)
5. **Landing** - Get page structure (if landing page)
6. **Chart** - Get chart recommendations (if dashboard/analytics)
7. **UX** - Get best practices and anti-patterns
8. **Stack** - Get stack-specific guidelines (default: html-tailwind)

### Step 3: Stack Guidelines (Default: html-tailwind)

If user doesn't specify a stack, **default to `html-tailwind`**.

```bash
python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "<keyword>" --stack html-tailwind
```

Available stacks: `html-tailwind`, `react`, `nextjs`, `vue`, `svelte`, `swiftui`, `react-native`, `flutter`, `shadcn`

## Example Workflow

**User request:** "Làm landing page cho dịch vụ chăm sóc da chuyên nghiệp"

**AI should:**

1.  Search product type:
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "beauty spa wellness service" --domain product
    ```

2.  Search style (based on industry: beauty, elegant):
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "elegant minimal soft" --domain style
    ```

3.  Search typography:
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "elegant luxury" --domain typography
    ```

4.  Search color palette:
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "beauty spa wellness" --domain color
    ```

5.  Search landing page structure:
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "hero-centric social-proof" --domain landing
    ```

6.  Search UX guidelines:
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "animation" --domain ux
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "accessibility" --domain ux
    ```

7.  Search stack guidelines (default: html-tailwind):
    ```bash
    python3 .shared/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "layout responsive" --stack html-tailwind
    ```

**Then:** Synthesize all search results and implement the design.

## Tips for Better Results

1. **Be specific with keywords** - "healthcare SaaS dashboard" > "app"
2. **Search multiple times** - Different keywords reveal different insights
3. **Combine domains** - Style + Typography + Color = Complete design system
4. **Always check UX** - Search "animation", "z-index", "accessibility" for common issues
5. **Use stack flag** - Get implementation-specific best practices
6. **Iterate** - If first search doesn't match, try different keywords

## Common Rules for Professional UI

These are frequently overlooked issues that make UI look unprofessional:

### Icons & Visual Elements

| Rule | Do | Don't |
|------|----|----- |
| **No emoji icons** | Use SVG icons (Heroicons, Lucide, Simple Icons) | Use emojis like 🎨 🚀 ⚙️ as UI icons |
| **Stable hover states** | Use color/opacity transitions on hover | Use scale transforms that shift layout |
| **Correct brand logos** | Research official SVG from Simple Icons | Guess or use incorrect logo paths |
| **Consistent icon sizing** | Use fixed viewBox (24x24) with w-6 h-6 | Mix different icon sizes randomly |

### Interaction & Cursor

| Rule | Do | Don't |
|------|----|----- |
| **Cursor pointer** | Add `cursor-pointer` to all clickable/hoverable cards | Leave default cursor on interactive elements |
| **Hover feedback** | Provide visual feedback (color, shadow, border) | No indication element is interactive |
| **Smooth transitions** | Use `transition-colors duration-200` | Instant state changes or too slow (>500ms) |

### Light/Dark Mode Contrast

| Rule | Do | Don't |
|------|----|----- |
| **Glass card light mode** | Use `bg-white/80` or higher opacity | Use `bg-white/10` (too transparent) |
| **Text contrast light** | Use `#0F172A` (slate-900) for text | Use `#94A3B8` (slate-400) for body text |
| **Muted text light** | Use `#475569` (slate-600) minimum | Use gray-400 or lighter |
| **Border visibility** | Use `border-gray-200` in light mode | Use `border-white/10` (invisible) |

### Layout & Spacing

| Rule | Do | Don't |
|------|----|----- |
| **Floating navbar** | Add `top-4 left-4 right-4` spacing | Stick navbar to `top-0 left-0 right-0` |
| **Content padding** | Account for fixed navbar height | Let content hide behind fixed elements |
| **Consistent max-width** | Use same `max-w-6xl` or `max-w-7xl` | Mix different container widths |

Overview

This skill provides UI/UX design intelligence and hands-on implementation guidance for web and mobile products. It combines 50 UI styles, 21 color palettes, 50 font pairings, 20 chart types, and stack-specific recommendations across nine common stacks. Use it to plan, build, review, or fix interfaces for websites, dashboards, apps, and component-level UI elements.

How this skill works

I analyze your product type, style keywords, industry, and target stack to generate a tailored design system and implementation plan. The skill recommends colors, typography, spacing, accessibility checks, interaction patterns, and chart choices, then produces stack-specific code snippets or review feedback. It also runs iterative searches against curated domains (product, style, typography, color, landing, chart, ux, stack) to refine recommendations until the design goals are met.

When to use it

  • Starting a new website, landing page, dashboard, admin panel, or mobile app
  • Needing a style system: palette, font pairings, spacing, and interaction rules
  • Preparing UI code for a specific stack (React, Vue, Next.js, Svelte, SwiftUI, React Native, Flutter, Tailwind, shadcn)
  • Performing a UI/UX review, accessibility audit, or pre-delivery checklist
  • Refactoring or optimizing components: buttons, modals, navbars, cards, tables, forms, charts

Best practices

  • Default to html-tailwind when stack is unspecified; provide stack flag for implementation-specific advice
  • Use SVG icon sets (Heroicons, Lucide) and fixed viewBox sizing for consistency
  • Ensure clear hover and focus states, cursor-pointer on interactive elements, and transitions of 150–300ms
  • Maintain light/dark contrast ratios, test prefers-reduced-motion, and provide alt text and form labels
  • Keep consistent container max-widths and responsive checks at 320, 768, 1024, and 1440px

Example use cases

  • Design a SaaS analytics dashboard with recommended chart types, palettes, and Vue implementation tips
  • Create a conversion-focused landing page: hero, social proof, CTAs, and responsive Tailwind markup
  • Refactor a mobile app UI to use platform-appropriate patterns for React Native or SwiftUI
  • Review an e-commerce product page for accessibility, spacing, and iconography consistency
  • Generate font pairings and CSS variables for a brand refresh with dark mode support

FAQ

What stacks are supported?

Nine stacks are supported: html-tailwind (default), React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, SwiftUI, React Native, Flutter, and shadcn/ui.

How do you handle accessibility?

Accessibility guidance is built-in: color contrast checks, focus states, labels, alt text, and reduced-motion recommendations are included in every deliverable.
