Installing/configuring @nuxt/ui
Using UI components (Button, Card, Table, Form, etc.)
Customizing theme (colors, variants, CSS variables)
Building forms with validation
Using overlays (Modal, Toast, CommandPalette)
Working with composables (useToast, useOverlay)

For Vue component patterns: use vue skill For Nuxt routing/server: use nuxt skill

Available Guidance

File	Topics
references/installation.md	Nuxt/Vue setup, pnpm gotchas, UApp wrapper, module options, prefix, tree-shaking
references/theming.md	Semantic colors, CSS variables, app.config.ts, Tailwind Variants
references/components.md	Component index by category (125+ components)
*components/.md**	Per-component details (button.md, modal.md, etc.)
references/forms.md	Form components, validation (Zod/Valibot), useFormField
references/overlays.md	Toast, Modal, Slideover, Drawer, CommandPalette
references/composables.md	useToast, useOverlay, defineShortcuts, useScrollspy

Loading Files

Consider loading these reference files based on your task:

references/installation.md - if installing or configuring @nuxt/ui
references/theming.md - if customizing theme, colors, or Tailwind Variants
references/components.md - if browsing component index or finding components by category
references/forms.md - if building forms with validation (Zod/Valibot)
references/overlays.md - if using Toast, Modal, Slideover, Drawer, or CommandPalette
references/composables.md - if using useToast, useOverlay, or other composables

DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.

Key Concepts

Concept	Description
UApp	Required wrapper component for Toast, Tooltip, overlays
Tailwind Variants	Type-safe styling with slots, variants, compoundVariants
Semantic Colors	primary, secondary, success, error, warning, info, neutral
Reka UI	Headless component primitives (accessibility built-in)

For headless component primitives (API details, accessibility patterns, asChild): read the reka-ui skill

Quick Reference

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxt/ui'],
  css: ['~/assets/css/main.css']
})

/* assets/css/main.css */
@import 'tailwindcss';
@import '@nuxt/ui';

vercel-react-view-transitions

Guide for implementing smooth, native-feeling animations using React's View Transition API (`<ViewTransition>` component, `addTransitionType`, and CSS view transition pseudo-elements). Use this skill whenever the user wants to add page transitions, animate route changes, create shared element animations, animate enter/exit of components, animate list reorder, implement directional (forward/back) navigation animations, or integrate view transitions in Next.js. Also use when the user mentions view transitions, `startViewTransition`, `ViewTransition`, transition types, or asks about animating between UI states in React without third-party animation libraries.
