SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interface Design prevents UI drift across sessions by ensuring spacing, typography, depth, and component patterns stay consistent as features grow and code changes over time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Principle-based craft: Applies consistent UI decisions like spacing grids, elevation/depth strategy, and surface rules to reduce arbitrary styling.
  • Cross-session memory: Persists direction and tokens in .interface-design/system.md so new pages and components inherit the same standards.
  • Consistency enforcement: Audits existing components against the system and extracts patterns from code to regenerate or refine the system file.
  • Use cases: Dashboards, admin panels, settings pages, and product UIs that need repeatable component behavior (e.g., button heights, card padding, radius, input sizing).

Quick Start

Initialize the system by running /interface-design:init, then build your UI components so they follow the established tokens and patterns.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep UI components consistent across different development sessions?▼

To keep UI consistent across sessions, enforce shared design tokens and component rules that persist in a system file. This ensures spacing, typography, and depth decisions remain uniform as features grow and code changes over time.

What are design tokens and how do they prevent UI drift in dashboards?▼

Design tokens are predefined, principle-based values for UI elements like spacing grids, elevation, and typography scales. They prevent UI drift in dashboards by enforcing consistent component dimensions, such as button heights and card padding, across all application interfaces.

How do I audit existing code for UI inconsistencies and extract patterns?▼

You can audit existing code for UI inconsistencies by checking component patterns against a defined system file. This process extracts established patterns from your code to regenerate or refine the token rules, ensuring alignment with your spacing and typography standards.

Can I use a tokenized design system for admin panels and settings pages?▼

Yes, a tokenized design system is ideal for admin panels, settings pages, and product UIs. It provides repeatable component behavior for elements like input sizing, button heights, and card radius, ensuring strict visual consistency.

What's the best way to initialize design tokens for an application interface?▼

The best way to initialize design tokens for an application interface is to run an initialization command that establishes principle-based craft rules. This creates a system file capturing your spacing grid, surface elevation strategy, and typography scale for future component development.

Do I need predefined spacing and typography scales before building a component audit system?▼

Yes, you need predefined spacing and typography scales before building a component audit system. Principle-based grids and surface elevation rules provide the baseline metrics required to evaluate existing components and extract inconsistencies from your current code.
