UI Component Specification Generator
Generate production-ready component specs and design system documentation
What You Can Do
You provide Claude with your component requirements, design tokens, and accessibility needs, and it generates comprehensive, production-ready component specifications. The skill produces detailed documentation including prop tables, variant documentation, implementation examples, and accessibility guidelines—everything your design system needs to stay consistent and maintainable at scale.
Features
Creates detailed specifications for UI components including purpose, props, states, behaviors, and design rationale in structured markdown format.
Generates comprehensive design token reference guides covering colors, typography, spacing, shadows, and other foundational design system values.
Automatically includes WCAG 2.1 guidelines, keyboard navigation patterns, ARIA attributes, and testing requirements for each component.
Generates code examples in React, Vue, or plain HTML/CSS showing real-world usage patterns and common variants.
Maps out all component variants, states (hover, focus, disabled, loading), transitions, and when to use each variant.
Produces a hierarchical design system guide including component hierarchy, relationships, and inheritance patterns.
Documents best practices, anti-patterns, common mistakes, and when to use alternative components.
Specifies animations, interactions, transitions, and responsive breakpoints for dynamic component behavior.
Example Output
