Prompt
Add Your Brief

Add your context below. It will be included with the prompt when you copy or download.

Create an interactive frontend prototype using the existing project stack and explicitly labeled demo data for [PROJECT] and [AUDIENCE]. The task is: Component Playground.

Required content and structure

Let users inspect a component's variants, states, properties and code example.

Use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source of names, dates, figures, claims and destinations. List missing inputs before substituting anything. If a demonstration is needed, label its content as fictional. Do not invent customer quotes, rankings, partner logos or product capabilities.

Design direction

Use [BRAND_RULES] and the design system already selected in the project. If no system is supplied, start with this direction: warm white, ink text and restrained mint selected states; generous spacing and simple controls. Keep type, spacing and color roles consistent. Prioritize the task over decorative elements and avoid a generic collection of unrelated cards.

Content preparation

Supply a real component, supported variants, property definitions and example states. Keep the displayed code tied to the same component version.

Layout and behavior

Use a stable preview beside controls and a code example. Group related properties and explain unavailable combinations rather than silently ignoring a selected option.

Task-specific acceptance check

  • Ensure controls update the same preview and document disabled states.
  • Change several properties and reset them.
  • The code, preview and control values should agree; test disabled states, long labels and invalid property combinations.

Implementation and review

Keep text editable. Use semantic structure, descriptive controls, visible keyboard focus and appropriate empty/error states. Check narrow and wide layouts. Respect reduced-motion preferences. Preserve any existing project framework and dependencies; do not silently replace the stack. Return the editable files and explain any incomplete behavior or unsupported inputs. Review this specific task before proposing extra features.

Reference attachment and reconstruction goal

Attach reference.webp from this prompt’s download bundle alongside this prompt in OpenDesign. Build an editable result with a similar composition and hierarchy; do not embed the whole reference image as the finished interface. Preserve approved project content and brand rules if they conflict with fictional sample labels. If the image is missing or unreadable, ask for it instead of claiming visual fidelity.

Reference composition and content

Use the attached reference.webp as the visual reference for Component Playground. Before building, identify the major regions from top to bottom, their relative widths and heights, alignment, spacing, typography hierarchy, surface colors, borders, imagery and repeated components. Preserve those relationships rather than substituting a generic template. Required task content: Let users inspect a component's variants, states, properties and code example. Use the following task-specific layout guidance when translating the image into editable elements: Use a stable preview beside controls and a code example. Group related properties and explain unavailable combinations rather than silently ignoring a selected option.

Interaction specification

The reference is a static concept: the behavior below is a requirement to implement, not proof that the picture already works. Copy the customized prompt into your working project. Start with the core task: Let users inspect a component's variants, states, properties and code example. Ensure controls update the same preview and document disabled states. For each visible control, specify its trigger, affected state and feedback; implement local changes with consistent state across related views. Give search and filters real results, selection controls an explicit active state, and save actions visible pending/success/failure feedback where relevant. Do not add unrelated workflows. Use proper links for navigation, buttons for actions and accessible names for icon controls. Do not imply a backend operation succeeded when only a local demo changed.

Visual comparison and delivery

  1. Compare the result with the attached image at matching proportions. Review major region placement, relative image sizes, line breaks, spacing, typography hierarchy, contrast, active states and content density before polishing decorative details.
  2. Then test the narrow layout without squeezing desktop text into tiny labels.
  3. Keep logos, photos and icons as separate assets and all meaningful labels editable. List any unavailable fonts/assets and any intentional departures. Return the working files plus a concise account of implemented behavior and remaining integrations; do not promise a pixel-identical result from the prompt alone.

How to Write a Component Playground Design Prompt

Use this component playground design prompt to let users inspect a component's variants, states, properties and code example.

The reference is an AI-generated concept. The instructions below describe what to build and test; the image does not demonstrate working behavior.

Keep Controls and Preview in Agreement

A component playground should make the relationship between properties and rendered states inspectable.

AI-generated visual concept for component playground
Component Playground — compare the overall hierarchy with the layout instructions below.

Controls, preview and code must describe the same configuration. Use a stable preview beside controls and a code example. Group related properties and explain unavailable combinations rather than silently ignoring a selected option.

From the Prompt

Use a stable preview beside controls and a code example.

Make It Your Own

Expose [VARIANTS], states and properties beside one live preview and matching code. Explain disabled combinations rather than allowing a control to appear effective when it is ignored.

Prepare the Component Playground Content

The lower controls separate variant, interaction state, size and icon placement. Define a valid option model so incompatible settings cannot silently produce misleading previews.

Variant, state, size and icon controls in the Component Playground reference
Variant, state, size and icon controls.

Supply a real component, supported variants, property definitions and example states. Keep the displayed code tied to the same component version.

From the Prompt

Let users inspect a component's variants, states, properties and code example.

Make It Your Own

For [PROJECT], use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source for this component playground. Supply a real component, supported variants, property definitions and example states. Keep the displayed code tied to the same component version. Identify missing inputs before replacing them with demonstration content.

Change Two Properties

The right rail pairs editable properties with state samples and a code panel. Test that the displayed code matches the selected configuration and copy action.

Properties, state examples and generated code in the Component Playground reference
Properties, state examples and generated code.

The preview and code should reflect both selections together. A disabled state should demonstrate the component's actual behavior, not merely a faded visual. Change several properties and reset them. The code, preview and control values should agree; test disabled states, long labels and invalid property combinations.

From the Prompt

Ensure controls update the same preview and document disabled states.

Make It Your Own

Review the component playground against this requirement: Ensure controls update the same preview and document disabled states. Change several properties and reset them. The code, preview and control values should agree; test disabled states, long labels and invalid property combinations. Preserve approved content and revise only the parts that fail this check.

Review Your Component Playground Result

A convincing screen is not a working backend. Test validation, permissions, persistence and failure behavior separately before connecting real data.

  • Change several properties and reset them. The code, preview and control values should agree; test disabled states, long labels and invalid property combinations.

Follow-Up Prompt

Use this after the first result. It narrows the revision to the most important part of this task.

Refine the current component playground. Change several properties and reset them. The code, preview and control values should agree; test disabled states, long labels and invalid property combinations. Preserve the approved content and visual direction; change only the parts needed to resolve these issues.
