   • loading-buttons: Disable button during async operations
   • error-feedback: Clear error messages near problem
   • cursor-pointer: Add cursor-pointer to clickable elements

3. Performance (HIGH)

   • image-optimization: Use WebP, srcset, lazy loading
   • reduced-motion: Check prefers-reduced-motion

6. Animation (MEDIUM)

   • duration-timing: Use 150-300ms for micro-interactions
   • transform-performance: Use transform/opacity, not width/height/top/left
   • loading-states: Skeleton screens or spinners

7. Style Selection (MEDIUM)

   • style-match: Match style to product type (e.g., Trust for Fintech, Playful for Gaming)
   • consistency: Use same style across all pages

   • chart-type: Match chart type to data type
   • color-guidance: Use accessible color palettes for data

Workflow for AI Assistant

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

Step 1: Analyze User Requirements

Extract key information:

• 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: Generate Design System (Mental Draft)

Before coding, formulate a design system:

• Pattern: e.g., Hero-Centric, Dashboard, Feed
• Colors: Primary, Secondary, CTA, Background, Text (ensure contrast)
• Typography: Heading font, Body font (Google Fonts)
• Effects: Shadows, border-radius, transitions

Step 3: Implementation Guidelines

• HTML/Tailwind: Use utility classes for layout, spacing, colors.
• React/Vue/Svelte: Componentize reusable elements (Buttons, Cards).
• Icons: Use SVG icons (e.g., lucide-react or similar).
• Responsive: Mobile-first approach (class, md:class, lg:class).

Example Design System Output

When asked to design, produce something like:

Recommended Design System

• Style: Soft UI / Minimalism
• Colors: Navy Blue (#1e293b) + Emerald Green (#10b981) for accents
