Rippling UI Skills

Opinionated constraints for building Rippling-style interfaces with AI agents.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

Building dark-mode interfaces
Creating Rippling-inspired design systems
Implementing UIs with Inter font and 4px grid

Colors

MUST use dark backgrounds (lightness < 20) for primary surfaces - detected lightness: 0
MUST use
```
#000000
```
as page background (
```
surface-base
```
)
MUST use
```
#FDF6FD
```
for primary actions and focus states (
```
accent
```
)
SHOULD reduce color palette (currently 13 colors detected)
MUST maintain text contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for accessibility

Semantic Tokens

Token	HEX	RGB	Usage
`surface-base`	#000000	rgb(0,0,0)	Page background
`surface-raised`	#FD9717	rgb(253,151,23)	Cards, modals, raised surfaces
`surface-overlay`	#FEFEFE	rgb(254,254,254)	Overlays, tooltips, dropdowns
`text-primary`	#8D8884	rgb(141,136,132)	Headings, body text
`text-secondary`	#23201F	rgb(35,32,31)	Secondary, muted text
`text-tertiary`	#713C12	rgb(113,60,18)	Additional text
`border-default`	#F9E2C1	rgb(249,226,193)	Subtle borders, dividers
`accent`	#FDF6FD	rgb(253,246,253)	Primary actions, links, focus
`destructive`	#713C12	rgb(113,60,18)	Error states, delete actions
`warning`	#FD9717	rgb(253,151,23)	Warning states, cautions

Typography

MUST use
```
Inter
```
as primary font family
SHOULD use single font family for consistency
MUST use
```
43px
```
/
```
extra_bold
```
for primary headings
MUST use
```
16px
```
/
```
400
```
for body text
SHOULD reduce font weights (currently 5 detected)
MUST use
```
text-balance
```
for headings and
```
text-pretty
```
for body text
SHOULD use
```
tabular-nums
```
for numeric data
NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Text Styles

Style	Font	Size	Weight	Color	Count
`heading-1`	Inter	43px	extra_bold	#E6DAE8	1

Typography Reference

Font Families:

```
Inter
```
(used 27x)

Font Sizes: 10px, 11px, 12px, 13px, 14px, 16px, 39px, 43px

Spacing

MUST use 4px grid for spacing
SHOULD use spacing from scale: 2px, 3px, 5px, 15px, 71px
SHOULD use 2px as default gap between elements
NEVER use arbitrary spacing values (use design scale)
SHOULD maintain consistent padding within containers

Borders

SHOULD limit border widths to: 1px, 5px
NEVER use arbitrary border-radius values (use design scale)
SHOULD use subtle borders (1px) for element separation

Layout

MUST design for 1920px base viewport width
SHOULD use consistent element widths: 14px, 8px, 22px, 506px, 24px
SHOULD maintain text-heavy layout with clear hierarchy
NEVER use
```
h-screen
```
, use
```
h-dvh
```
for full viewport height
MUST respect
```
safe-area-inset
```
for fixed elements
SHOULD use
```
size-*
```
for square elements instead of
```
w-*
```
+
```
h-*
```

Detected Layout Patterns

Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 788px
Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 717px
Header: height: 70px

Components

Buttons

Variant	Background	Text	Border	Height	Radius
Ghost	transparent	#713C12	none	-	-

Interactive States

Focus

MUST use
```
2px
```
outline with accent color (
```
#FDF6FD
```
)
MUST use
```
2px
```
outline-offset
NEVER remove focus indicators

Hover

Buttons (primary): lighten background by 10%
Buttons (secondary): use
```
#FD9717
```
background
List items: use
```
#FD9717
```
background

Disabled

MUST use
```
opacity: 0.5
```
MUST use
```
cursor: not-allowed
```

Interaction

MUST use an
```
AlertDialog
```

SHOULD use structural skeletons for loading states
MUST show errors next to where the action happens
NEVER block paste in
```
input
```
or
```
textarea
```
elements
MUST add an
```
aria-label
```
to icon-only buttons

Animation

NEVER add animation unless it is explicitly requested
MUST animate only compositor props (
```
transform

NEVER animate layout properties (
```
width
```
,
```
height
```
,
```
top
```
,
```
left
```
,
```
margin
```
,
```
padding
```
)
SHOULD use
```
ease-out
```
on entrance animations
NEVER exceed
```
200ms
```
for interaction feedback
SHOULD respect
```
prefers-reduced-motion
```

Performance

NEVER animate large
```
blur()
```
or
```
backdrop-filter
```
surfaces
NEVER apply
```
will-change
```
outside an active animation
NEVER use
```
useEffect
```
for anything that can be expressed as render logic
