Interface Polish

A checklist of concrete UI craft rules covering border radius, shadows, animation timing, typography, color tokens, accessibility, layout spacing, and microcopy. Use this skill whenever building, reviewing, or refining any web UI, component, page, landing page, or design system code, even if the user only says "make it look better", "polish this", "review my component", or asks for a button, menu, modal, form, or any frontend work. Also use it when writing UI copy like button labels, empty states, or confirmation dialogs. Distilled from the interfaces.dev cheat sheet.

# Interface Polish

Practical rules for making interfaces clearer, easier to use, and more polished. Apply these by default when writing or reviewing frontend code. Each rule is short; when one applies, just do it rather than asking.

Adapted and condensed from the [interfaces.dev cheat sheet](https://interfaces.dev/cheat-sheet) by [Jakub Krehel](https://x.com/jakubkrehel), published here with his permission. For deeper typography, color, or motion work, pair this with the better-typography, better-colors, apple-design, and emil-design-eng skills if available.

## Visual details

**Concentric radii on nested elements.** Inner radius = outer radius minus the gap between them. A card with `16px` radius and `8px` padding gives its inner element `8px` radius. Never give a nested element the same radius as its parent.

**Optical over geometric alignment.** Center things by eye, not just by math. Play icons, arrows, and asymmetric glyphs usually need a 1–2px nudge to look centered.

**Asymmetric button padding with icons.** When a button has an icon plus text, reduce the padding on the icon side slightly (the icon carries visual weight that text doesn't).

**Layered shadows over borders for depth.** Stack 2–3 `box-shadow` layers (a tight low-opacity ring plus softer larger shadows) instead of a flat `1px` border when you want elevation.
