Everything Looks Like Tailwind Now: Two Skills for Taste

The thing I struggle with most when I build an app is how it looks. Not just fonts and colours, but how the UX is put together, the stuff that marks a professional designer. For years that put solo builders and side hustlers at a disadvantage unless they could design too. That's over. And I'll say it again because it matters: building the same apps faster with AI is not the game. The game is building something magnificent, something so much better to look at and use that people notice.

So I bring in two skills. The first is the Taste Skill, which is really a group of skills; the one I use all the time is high-end-visual-design. The second is interface-design by Dammyjay93, which I've used so much I've lost count. Most skills these days install with the npx skills tool from skills.sh (the folks at Vercel), which vets them and adapts them to whatever tool you use. Or just ask Claude to go get them for you. Do read them first for prompt injection, though these have proven themselves pretty safe.

Then I wire them in so they're used everywhere:

For every bit of UX work, I want to make sure the builder will use /interface-design and /high-end-visual-design to craft absolutely gorgeous interfaces. This is paramount to me. So make sure that is in whatever dispatch the orchestrator is going to use. Also make sure that is in CLAUDE.md.

You might not care about this as much as I do, and that's fine, but I think it will be to your detriment. Just pick two skills and use them. One warning: remember when every site looked like Twitter Bootstrap? Now everything looks like Tailwind, and soon it'll all look like Claude Design and the Taste Skill. That's who you're up against. By the end, CLAUDE.md, the orchestrator and orchestration.md all know the mandate, and we're ready to kick off the build.
