| name | ui-ux-pro-max |
| description | Senior UI/UX craft pass for web frontends. Use when the user asks to upgrade, polish, redesign, or "make it premium/pro" — applies design-token systems, visual hierarchy, spacing rhythm, accessible color/contrast, motion restraint, and responsive layout. Best for React/Tailwind/CSS projects. |
UI/UX Pro Max
A disciplined senior-designer pass over a web UI. Goal: make it look
intentional, premium, and accessible — never decorated for its own sake.
When to use
Invoke when the user wants to "upgrade the UI/UX", "make it pro/premium",
"redesign", or polish an existing interface.
Method (work in this order)
-
Audit first, change second. Read the actual components and global
styles. List concrete problems (hardcoded colors, inconsistent spacing,
weak hierarchy, poor contrast, no focus states) before editing. Show the
audit to the user.
-
Establish a token system. Define color, spacing, radius, shadow, and
type scale ONCE (CSS variables / Tailwind theme). Never hardcode the same
hex in ten components. Light and dark must both derive from tokens.
-
Hierarchy & rhythm.
- One clear focal point per section; size/weight/color reinforce it.
- Consistent vertical rhythm (a spacing scale: 4/8/12/16/24/32/48/64).
- Max line length ~70ch for body text; generous line-height (1.5–1.7).
-
Color & contrast. Body text ≥ 4.5:1, large text ≥ 3:1 (WCAG AA).
Use a restrained palette: 1 brand + neutrals + 1–2 accents. Gradients
are a seasoning, not a main course.
-
Components, not snowflakes. Buttons, cards, chips, inputs should be
reusable classes/components with consistent padding, radius, and states
(hover/active/focus/disabled).
-
Motion with restraint. Short (150–350ms), eased, purposeful.
Always honor prefers-reduced-motion.
-
Responsive & touch. Test mental models at 360px, 768px, 1280px.
Tap targets ≥ 44px. No horizontal overflow.
-
Accessibility is non-negotiable. Visible :focus-visible rings,
semantic landmarks, alt/aria-label, labels tied to inputs, skip link.
Definition of done
- No duplicated hardcoded colors; everything flows from tokens.
- Consistent spacing/type scale across sections.
- AA contrast, visible focus, reduced-motion respected.
- Build passes; nothing regressed. Show before/after notes.
