Do I need to manually install shadcn/ui components?

No, the initialization script automatically sets up a project with over 40 shadcn/ui components and all necessary Radix UI dependencies pre-installed.

How do I share the finished project with Claude?

The provided bundle script uses Parcel and html-inline to compile your entire project into a single 'bundle.html' file, which can be directly presented to and viewed by the user.

Why does the skill discourage certain design patterns like purple gradients?

These are considered common 'AI slop' design tropes. The skill promotes professional, unique UI/UX design guidelines to ensure your artifacts look hand-crafted and high-quality.

What makes Artifacts Builder different from standard Claude artifacts?

While standard artifacts are often simple single-file scripts, this skill provides a full React/TypeScript environment allowing for complex state management, routing, and professional UI libraries.

Design Tools

Builds sophisticated, multi-component Claude.ai artifacts using React, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui.

About

Artifacts Builder enables developers to create production-grade, multi-component frontend interfaces for Claude.ai, moving beyond simple single-file scripts. It provides a complete workflow—from project initialization with a pre-configured React and TypeScript environment to automated bundling into a single self-contained HTML file. By leveraging professional tools like shadcn/ui and Parcel, and enforcing design guidelines that avoid common AI design tropes, this skill ensures that generated artifacts are interactive, stateful, and visually distinctive.
