# Design System Generator

## Instructions

When creating a design system:

1. **Define design tokens** (colors, typography, spacing)
2. **Create base components** (Button, Input, Card, etc.)
3. **Establish patterns** (forms, navigation, layouts)
4. **Document usage** and variants

## Design Tokens

### Colors

```typescript
// tokens/colors.ts
export const colors = {
  // Brand
  primary: {
    50: '#eff6ff',
    100: '#dbeafe',
    200: '#bfdbfe',
    300: '#93c5fd',
    400: '#60a5fa',
    500: '#3b82f6', // Main
    600: '#2563eb',
    700: '#1d4ed8',
    800: '#1e40af',
    900: '#1e3a8a',
  },

  // Semantic
  success: {
    light: '#dcfce7',
    main: '#22c55e',
    dark: '#15803d',
  },
  warning: {
    light: '#fef3c7',
    main: '#f59e0b',
    dark: '#b45309',
  },
  error: {
    light: '#fee2e2',
    main: '#ef4444',
    dark: '#b91c1c',
  },

  // Neutral
  gray: {
    50: '#f9fafb',
    100: '#f3f4f6',
    200: '#e5e7eb',
    300: '#d1d5db',
    400: '#9ca3af',
    500: '#6b7280',
    600: '#4b5563',
    700: '#374151',
    800: '#1f2937',
    900: '#111827',
  },
} as const;
```

### Typography

```typescript
// tokens/typography.ts
export const typography = {
  fontFamily: {
    sans: ['Inter', 'system-ui', 'sans-serif'],
    mono: ['JetBrains Mono', 'monospace'],
  },

  fontSize: {
    xs: ['0.75rem', { lineHeight: '1rem' }],
    sm: ['0.875rem', { lineHeight: '1.25rem' }],
    base: ['1rem', { lineHeight: '1.5rem' }],
    lg: ['1.125rem', { lineHeight: '1.75rem' }],
    xl: ['1.25rem', { lineHeight: '1.75rem' }],
    '2xl': ['1.5rem', { lineHeight: '2rem' }],
    '3xl': ['1.875rem', { lineHeight: '2.25rem' }],
    '4xl': ['2.25rem', { lineHeight: '2.5rem' }],
    '5xl': ['3rem', { lineHeight: '1.15' }],
  },

  fontWeight: {
    normal: '400',
    medium: '500',
    semibold: '600',
    bold: '700',
  },
} as const;
```

### Spacing

```typescript
// tokens/spacing.ts
export const spacing = {
  px: '1px',
  0: '0',
  0.5: '0.125rem',  // 2px
  1: '0.25rem',     // 4px
  1.5: '0.375rem',  // 6px
  2: '0.5rem',      // 8px
  2.5: '0.625rem',  // 10px
  3: '0.75rem',     // 12px
  4: '1rem',        // 16px
  5: '1.25rem',     // 20px
  6: '1.5rem',      // 24px
  8: '2rem',        // 32px
  10: '2.5rem',     // 40px
  12: '3rem',       // 48px
  16: '4rem',       // 64px
  20: '5rem',       // 80px
  24: '6rem',       // 96px
} as const;
```

### Shadows & Radii

```typescript
// tokens/effects.ts
export const shadows = {
  sm: '0 1px 2px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 0.05)',
  DEFAULT: '0 1px 3px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 1px 2px -1px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1)',
  md: '0 4px 6px -1px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 2px 4px -2px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1)',
  lg: '0 10px 15px -3px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 4px 6px -4px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1)',
  xl: '0 20px 25px -5px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 8px 10px -6px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1)',
};

export const radii = {
  none: '0',
  sm: '0.125rem',
  DEFAULT: '0.25rem',
  md: '0.375rem',
  lg: '0.5rem',
  xl: '0.75rem',
  '2xl': '1rem',
  full: '9999px',
};
```

## Tailwind Config

```javascript
// tailwind.config.js
const { colors, typography, spacing, shadows, radii } = require('./tokens');

module.exports = {
  content: ['./src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}'],
  darkMode: 'class',
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colors: {
        primary: colors.primary,

      fontSize: typography.fontSize,
      spacing: spacing,
      boxShadow: shadows,
      borderRadius: radii,
    },

  plugins: [],
};
```

## Utility Function

```typescript
// lib/utils.ts
import { clsx, type ClassValue } from 'clsx';
import { twMerge } from 'tailwind-merge';

export function cn(...inputs: ClassValue[]) {
  return twMerge(clsx(inputs));
}
```
