What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams implement scalable, themeable UI components by combining Tailwind CSS v4 with Class Variance Authority (CVA) to deliver type-safe, variant-rich design systems.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Design Tokens via CSS Variables: Centralize colors, typography, and spacing for easy theming.
• Type-Safe Variants with CVA: Create robust component APIs with compile-time guarantees.
• Themeable UI Libraries: Build design systems and component libraries that adapt to brand themes.
• Use Case: Build a Button component with primary/secondary variants and responsive sizes that inherits tokens from a global design system.

Quick Start

Install Tailwind CSS, Class Variance Authority, and clsx, then scaffold a Button component using CVA patterns to expose primary/secondary variants and sizes.
