UI Design System — Awwwards Quality
Design the visual component layer for a multi-page marketing site using Tailwind CSS. The goal is an ultra-modern, clean, sleek website that looks like it belongs on Awwwards.
Step 1: Generate Design System (REQUIRED)
Before any design decisions, run the UI/UX Pro Max design system generator:
bash
python3 .claude/skills/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "<industry> <keywords>" --design-system -p "<Project Name>"
Then get stack-specific guidelines:
bash
python3 .claude/skills/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py "layout responsive animation" --stack html-tailwind
