Ui Styling
This combines shadcn/ui components, Tailwind utilities, and canvas-based design into one skill for building React interfaces. Use it when you need accessible components like dialogs and data tables, want utility-first styling without writing custom CSS, or need to generate visual designs and posters. The setup is straightforward: run the shadcn CLI to scaffold both component and Tailwind configs, then add what you need. What makes this practical is the reference docs covering the full component catalog, theming patterns, and responsive breakpoints, plus Python scripts for batch component installation. It's opinionated toward the shadcn copy-paste model and Tailwind's design token system, which works well if you want that stack but might feel heavy if you just need basic styling.
