Ark UI Components

About

The ark-ui skill provides Claude with specialized knowledge for building high-quality React interfaces using the Ark UI library, a collection of unstyled, accessible component primitives. It offers domain-specific expertise on implementing complex UI patterns—such as Comboboxes, Date Pickers, and Dialogs—while leveraging Ark's unique composition model (asChild) and state-driven styling. This skill is ideal for developers creating custom-styled design systems that require robust accessibility and full control over the DOM structure without the constraints of a pre-styled framework.
