List of components

Component discovery protocol

Before you write daisyUI code, do these steps in sequence:

Identify the intended function, behavior, and layout in the request. Do not use only the exact words.
Use the component list in this file to select the best candidate components.
If the choice is not clear, read the guides for the candidate components that can meet the request before you select one.
Compare the description, behavior, syntax, and rules of each candidate with the request.
Select the best component or component combination. Obey all its constraints.
Use the exact structure and constraints of the selected components.

You must match the meaning, even when the words are different from component names. A component with a different name can still be the best match. Always examine the intended function and meaning.

If the user requests a named component and a guide with that name exists, read that guide first.
