Product Mockup

Product Mockup Design

Create professional product mockups and showcases using pure HTML/CSS. Device frames, 3D perspective transforms, feature callouts, and presentation layouts.

Step 1: Load Design Context

1. Read .agents/design-context.md for brand colors, fonts, style
2. If missing, ask user to run design-context skill or use defaults
3. Product mockups should match the brand's design style (minimal, bold, luxurious, etc.)

Step 2: Identify Mockup Type

Step 3: Device Mockup Frames

iPhone / Smartphone Frame

.phone-mockup {
  position: relative; width: 280px; height: 572px; background: #1a1a1a;
  border-radius: 40px; padding: 12px;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px #333, 0 0 0 4px #1a1a1a, 0 20px 60px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
.phone-mockup .screen { width: 100%; height: 100%; border-radius: 30px; overflow: hidden; background: #fff; position: relative; }
.phone-mockup .dynamic-island {
  position: absolute; top: 10px; left: 50%; transform: translateX(-50%);
  width: 100px; height: 28px; background: #000; border-radius: 20px; z-index: 10;

Step 4: 3D Perspective Transforms

Isometric View

.isometric-container { perspective: 1200px; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; padding: 80px; }
.isometric-device { transform: rotateX(12deg) rotateY(-8deg) rotateZ(2deg); transform-style: preserve-3d; transition: transform 0.4s ease; }
.isometric-device:hover { transform: rotateX(5deg) rotateY(-3deg) rotateZ(0deg); }

Floating Perspective

.float-device {
  transform: rotateY(-15deg) rotateX(5deg) translateZ(20px);
  transform-style: preserve-3d; animation: gentleFloat 6s ease-in-out infinite;
}
@keyframes gentleFloat {
  0%, 100% { transform: rotateY(-15deg) rotateX(5deg) translateZ(20px) translateY(0); }
  50% { transform: rotateY(-15deg) rotateX(5deg) translateZ(20px) translateY(-12px); }
}

Stacked Multi-Device

.device-stack { position: relative; perspective: 1200px; width: 800px; height: 600px; }

.product-stage {
  display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; min-height: 600px; padding: 80px;
  background: radial-gradient(ellipse at 50% 120%, rgba(var(--primary-rgb), 0.15) 0%, transparent 60%),
              linear-gradient(180deg, #0F172A 0%, #1E293B 100%);
}

Desk/Surface Scene

Rotated Screenshot Collage

.screenshot-collage { display: flex; padding: 40px; justify-content: center; }
.screenshot-collage .shot:nth-child(1) { transform: rotate(-5deg); z-index: 1; }
.screenshot-collage .shot:nth-child(2) { transform: rotate(0deg) translateY(-10px); z-index: 2; }
.screenshot-collage .shot:nth-child(3) { transform: rotate(5deg); z-index: 1; }
.screenshot-collage .shot { border-radius: 8px; overflow: hidden; box-shadow: 0 10px 30px rgba(0,0,0,0.2); border: 4px solid #fff; }

Quality Checklist

• Device frames look realistic (proper proportions, shadows, details)
• Shadows are natural (soft, directional, not uniform)
• 3D transforms have appropriate perspective depth
• Screenshot content is visible and not distorted
• Brand colors from design-context used for stage/background
• Multiple devices are properly scaled relative to each other
• The overall composition draws attention to the product
• Code is self-contained HTML/CSS
