Create New Design

Scaffold a new design inspiration with the correct file structure, ViewTransition naming, and component patterns.

Required Information

Before creating files, gather:

Design ID (kebab-case): e.g.,
```
pricing-table
```
,
```
user-profile
```
Title: e.g., "Pricing Table", "User Profile Card"
Description: One-line description for the main page
Tags: 2-4 category tags (e.g., "Card", "Form", "Dashboard")
Attribution (optional): Twitter handle of original designer

File Structure

src/
├── app/
│   ├── designs/
│   │   └── [design-id]/
│   │       └── page.tsx          # Detail page
│   └── page.tsx                   # Update designs array
└── components/
    └── previews/
        └── [Name]Preview.tsx      # Preview component

Step 1: Create Preview Component

Create

src/components/previews/[Name]Preview.tsx

See examples/preview-template.tsx for the full template.

Key conventions:

Export named function:
```
export function [Name]Preview()
```

ViewTransition names:

[design-id]-light

[design-id]-dark

[design-id]-light-panel

[design-id]-dark-panel

Side-by-side layout with dot grid backgrounds
Light panel:
```
bg-[#f5f5f5]
```
with
```
#d4d4d4
```
dots
Dark panel:
```
bg-zinc-950
```
with
```
#3f3f46
```
dots

Step 2: Create Detail Page

Create

src/app/designs/[design-id]/page.tsx

See examples/page-template.tsx for the full template.

Key conventions:

Use DM Sans font for design pages
Split layout: 50/50 light/dark
Header with back arrow, Code button, and attribution
Code button links to the component file on GitHub
Attribution format: "Inspired from @username" with profile photo via
```
unavatar.io
```

Step 3: Update Main Page

Add entry to

src/app/page.tsx

import { [Name]Preview } from "@/components/previews/[Name]Preview";

const designs = [
  // ... existing designs
  {
    id: "[design-id]",
    number: "XX",  // Increment from last
    title: "[Title]",
    description: "[Description]",
    tags: ["Tag1", "Tag2"],
    PreviewComponent: [Name]Preview,
  },
];

Step 4: Update globals.css

Add ViewTransition CSS for new design in

src/app/globals.css

/* Add to existing shared element transitions section */
::view-transition-old([design-id]-light),
::view-transition-new([design-id]-light),
::view-transition-old([design-id]-dark),
::view-transition-new([design-id]-dark),
::view-transition-old([design-id]-light-panel),
::view-transition-new([design-id]-light-panel),
::view-transition-old([design-id]-dark-panel),
::view-transition-new([design-id]-dark-panel) {
  animation-duration: 300ms;
  animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);
}

/* Add to reduced motion section */
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
  ::view-transition-old([design-id]-light),
  ::view-transition-new([design-id]-light),
  ::view-transition-old([design-id]-dark),
  ::view-transition-new([design-id]-dark),
  ::view-transition-old([design-id]-light-panel),
  ::view-transition-new([design-id]-light-panel),
  ::view-transition-old([design-id]-dark-panel),
  ::view-transition-new([design-id]-dark-panel) {
    animation: none;
  }
}

ViewTransition Naming Convention

Element	Pattern	Example
Light card	`[design-id]-light`	`pricing-table-light`
Dark card	`[design-id]-dark`	`pricing-table-dark`
Light panel	`[design-id]-light-panel`	`pricing-table-light-panel`
Dark panel	`[design-id]-dark-panel`	`pricing-table-dark-panel`

Code Button Format

<a
  href="https://github.com/ainergiz/design-inspirations/blob/main/src/app/designs/[design-id]/page.tsx"
  target="_blank"
  rel="noopener noreferrer"
  className="flex items-center gap-1.5 px-3 py-1.5 text-sm text-zinc-500 hover:text-zinc-700 hover:bg-zinc-100 rounded-lg transition-colors"
>
  <Code className="w-4 h-4" />
  <span className="hidden sm:inline">Code</span>
</a>

Attribution Format

<a
  href="https://x.com/[username]"
  target="_blank"
  rel="noopener noreferrer"
  className="flex items-center gap-2 text-sm text-zinc-500 hover:text-zinc-700"
>
  <span className="hidden sm:inline text-zinc-400">Inspired from</span>
  <Image
    src="https://unavatar.io/x/[username]"
    alt="[Name]"
    width={24}
    height={24}
    className="w-6 h-6 rounded-full"
  />
  <span className="font-medium text-zinc-700">@[username]</span>
  <ExternalLink className="w-3.5 h-3.5" />
</a>

Step 5: Custom Animations (if needed)

If your component has custom animations (e.g., carousels, progress bars), add keyframes to

src/app/globals.css

/* Example: Carousel progress animation */
@keyframes carousel-progress {
  from {
    transform: scaleX(0);
  }
  to {
    transform: scaleX(1);
  }
}

.animate-carousel-progress {
  animation: carousel-progress linear forwards;
}

Common animation patterns:

Progress bars:
```
scaleX(0)
```
to
```
scaleX(1)
```
with
```
origin-left
```
Fade in:
```
opacity: 0
```
to
```
opacity: 1
```
Slide up:
```
translateY(10px)
```
to
```
translateY(0)
```
