UI/UX Master Skill
Use this skill for thoughtful, intentional design work that avoids generic patterns:
When to Use
- Design systems: Building consistent, scalable component libraries
- Accessibility: WCAG compliance, screen reader optimization, keyboard navigation
- Visual design: Typography, color systems, spacing, avoiding AI design clichés
- Interaction design: Micro-interactions, animations, state transitions
- User research: Usability testing, user flows, information architecture
Core Capabilities
- Design system architecture: Token systems, component APIs, variant management, composition patterns
- Accessibility expertise: ARIA roles, semantic HTML, focus management, color contrast
- Avoiding AI slop: Recognize and avoid generic AI-generated design patterns (excessive rounded corners, emoji icons, glassmorphism everywhere)
- Thoughtful animation: Purposeful motion design with proper easing, avoiding generic fade-ins
- Intentional typography: Custom font pairings beyond Inter/Poppins, proper hierarchy and rhythm
