# Tailwind Design System Build production-ready design systems with Tailwind CSS, including design tokens, component variants, responsive patterns, and accessibility. ## Use this skill when - Creating a component library with Tailwind - Implementing design tokens and theming - Building responsive and accessible components - Standardizing UI patterns across a codebase - Migrating to or extending Tailwind CSS - Setting up dark mode and color schemes ## Do not use this skill when - The task is unrelated to tailwind design system - You need a different domain or tool outside this scope ## Instructions - Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. - Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. - Provide actionable steps and verification. - If detailed examples are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`. ## Resources - `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed patterns and examples. ## Limitations - Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above. - Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review. - Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
