Mobile Component Generator

Mobile Component Generator Skill

When to Use

• User asks to create a new mobile component
• User wants to add a new screen/modal
• User needs a list component with data fetching
• User asks to generate UI for a feature

What This Skill Does

1. Analyzes component requirements from user request
2. Determines component type (smart vs presentational)
3. Generates component with proper patterns:
   • NativeWind styling (every Text styled directly)
   • React Native Reusables UI components
   • Proper imports and exports
   • TypeScript types
   • Error boundaries if needed
4. Adds to proper directory structure
5. Generates basic tests if requested

Component Types Generated

1. List Component

FlashList/FlatList with loading, empty, and error states

2. Card Component

Presentational component with props, React.memo for performance

3. Modal Component

With form integration using React Native Reusables

4. Screen Component

With navigation (Expo Router) and data fetching

Styling Patterns

Every Text Must Be Styled

// WRONG - Text won't have color
<View className="text-foreground">
  <Text>This has no color!</Text>
</View>

// CORRECT - Direct styling
<View>
  <Text className="text-foreground">This has color!</Text>
</View>

Semantic Colors

<View className="bg-background border-border">
  <Text className="text-foreground font-semibold">Title</Text>
  <Text className="text-muted-foreground">Subtitle</Text>
  <Button className="bg-primary">
    <Text className="text-primary-foreground">Action</Text>
  </Button>
</View>

Platform-Specific

<View className="ios:pt-12 android:pt-6">
  <Text className="text-foreground">Platform-aware padding</Text>
</View>

Directory Structure

├── ui/               # React Native Reusables

Critical Patterns

• Style every <Text> component directly
• Use React Native Reusables from @/components/ui/
• Use activitySelectionStore for cross-screen state
• Add React.memo for list items
• Include accessibility props
• Use TypeScript strict types
• Handle loading, error, and empty states
