description	Creates Leptos component implementations from daisyUI style guide documentation
disable-model-invocation	true

This skill creates Leptos components based on the daisyUI style guide in .daisyui directory.

Prerequisites

1. Check for .daisyui directory: Verify that the .daisyui directory exists in the project root.

   • If it does NOT exist, recommend the user runs the install-component-guide skill first:
     • "The .daisyui style guide directory is not found. Please run the install-component-guide skill first to fetch and set up the daisyUI documentation."

2. Read the rules: Review .claude/rules/components.md for detailed rules and best practices

3. Read the style guide: Reference the relevant component documentation from .daisyui/components/{component_name}.md

Implementation Steps

1. Create Directory Structure

mkdir -p src/components/{component_name}

2. Create mod.rs

//! # daisyUI {ComponentName} Components
//!
//! For more information, see: https://daisyui.com/components/{component_name}/

mod component;
mod style;

pub use component::*;
pub use style::*;

3. Create style.rs

Extract class names from .daisyui/components/{component_name}.md and create style enums:

/// # {ComponentName} Color Variants
#[derive(Clone, Debug, Default)]
pub enum {ComponentName}Color {
    #[default]
    Default,
    // Add variants based on .daisyui documentation
}

impl {ComponentName}Color {
    pub fn as_str(&self) -> &'static str {
        match self {
            {ComponentName}Color::Default => "",
            // Map variants to CSS class strings
        }
    }
}

Refer to .claude/rules/components.md for complete style enum rules

4. Create component.rs

use super::style::{ComponentColor, ComponentSize};
use crate::merge_classes;
use leptos::prelude::*;

/// # {ComponentName} Component
///
/// A reactive wrapper for daisyUI's {component_name} component.
///
/// ### Add to `input.css`
/// ```css
/// @source inline("{class_names}");
/// ```
///
/// ## Node References
/// - `node_ref` - References the `<{html_element}>` element
#[component]
pub fn {ComponentName}(
    #[prop(optional, into)]
    color: Signal<ComponentColor>,

    #[prop(optional, into)]
    node_ref: NodeRef<{HtmlElementType}>,

    #[prop(optional, into)]
    class: &'static str,

    children: Children,
) -> impl IntoView {
    view! {
        <{html_element}
            node_ref=node_ref
            class=move || {
                merge_classes!(
                    "{base_class}",
                    color.get().as_str(),
                    class
                )
            }
        >
            {children()}
        </{html_element}>
    }
}

Refer to .claude/rules/components.md for props rules, class merging, and documentation requirements

5. Update src/components/mod.rs

mod {component_name};
pub use {component_name}::*;

6. Format and Validate

leptosfmt .
cargo clippy -- -D warnings

7. Add CSS Classes

Add the component's CSS classes using @source inline() in the appropriate CSS file:

@source inline("component-name component-name-color1 component-name-color2 ...");

Quick Reference

Component: src/components/button/ - Canonical example implementation Rules: .claude/rules/components.md - Complete rules and best practices Style Guide: .daisyui/components/{component_name}.md - daisyUI documentation

Example Workflow

1. Read style guide: cat .daisyui/components/alert.md
2. Extract: base class, color variants, size variants, modifier classes
3. Create style enums for each category
4. Implement component following the rules
5. Update module exports
6. Format and validate
7. Add CSS classes
