Styling Guidelines
Minimize Wrapper Elements
Avoid creating unnecessary wrapper divs. If classes can be applied directly to an existing semantic element with the same outcome, prefer that approach.
Good (Direct Application)
<main class="flex-1 mx-auto max-w-7xl">
{@render children()}
</main>
Avoid (Unnecessary Wrapper)
<main class="flex-1">
<div class="mx-auto max-w-7xl">
{@render children()}
</div>
</main>
This principle applies to all elements where the styling doesn't conflict with the element's semantic purpose or create layout issues.
Tailwind Best Practices
- Use the
cn()utility from$lib/utilsfor combining classes conditionally - Prefer utility classes over custom CSS
- Use
tailwind-variantsfor component variant systems - Follow the
background/foregroundconvention for colors - Leverage CSS variables for theme consistency

cache-components
Expert guidance for Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR). **PROACTIVE ACTIVATION**: Use this skill automatically when working in Next.js projects that have `cacheComponents: true` in their next.config.ts/next.config.js. When this config is detected, proactively apply Cache Components patterns and best practices to all React Server Component implementations. **DETECTION**: At the start of a session in a Next.js project, check for `cacheComponents: true` in next.config. If enabled, this skill's patterns should guide all component authoring, data fetching, and caching decisions. **USE CASES**: Implementing 'use cache' directive, configuring cache lifetimes with cacheLife(), tagging cached data with cacheTag(), invalidating caches with updateTag()/revalidateTag(), optimizing static vs dynamic content boundaries, debugging cache issues, and reviewing Cache Component implementations.

component-refactoring
Refactor high-complexity React components in Dify frontend. Use when `pnpm analyze-component --json` shows complexity > 50 or lineCount > 300, when the user asks for code splitting, hook extraction, or complexity reduction, or when `pnpm analyze-component` warns to refactor before testing; avoid for simple/well-structured components, third-party wrappers, or when the user explicitly wants testing without refactoring.
