Every ui ux
A comprehensive guide to core UI/UX design concepts — affordances, visual hierarchy, grids, typography, color, dark mode, shadows, icons & buttons, feedback & states, micro interactions, and overlays. Use this skill whenever the user is designing interfaces, building component libraries, reviewing UI decisions, implementing frontend styling, or asking how to make their design look more polished or professional. Also useful when the user mentions terms like spacing, layout, hover states, color ramps, or asks "how do I make this look better."From its SKILL.md

Every UI/UX Concept — A Practical Guide
This skill covers the foundational UI/UX concepts that underpin good interface design. These aren't rigid rules — they're patterns that experienced designers internalize over time. The goal is to help you make informed decisions, not to constrain creativity.
How to use this guide
Each concept has its own reference file with detailed explanations, implementation guidance, and practical tips. Read the relevant file when you need depth on a specific topic.
The concepts build on each other:
- Affordances & Signifiers — The foundation. How users understand what things do.
- Visual Hierarchy — Directing attention. What's important, what's secondary.
- Grids, Layouts & Spacing — Structure. Giving content room to breathe.
- Typography & Font Sizing — The backbone of UI. Most of your design is text.
- Color Theory — Emotion and meaning. Using color with purpose.
- Dark Mode — Adapting designs for low-light contexts without losing clarity.
- Shadows & Depth — Creating layers and spatial relationships.
- Icons & Buttons — Interactive elements. The building blocks of action.
- Feedback & States — Responsiveness. Every interaction deserves a response.
- Micro Interactions — Delight. Small animations that confirm and guide.
- Overlays — Layering content over images without ruining either.
