What is it?
TypeUI is a collection of design skills, UI prompts, and design system specs that AI coding assistants can use when generating websites and applications. The resources are provided as markdown files in DESIGN.md and SKILL.md formats, so they can be used with any AI provider that accepts markdown or general prompting.
The project offers a CLI run through npx typeui.sh with commands to generate, update, randomize, list, and pull design specs. It also has hosted MCP server setup guides for tools such as Codex, Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and several others. A UI/UX fundamentals skill covers spacing, typography, and color contrast so that generated interfaces follow basic design principles.
The repository includes a catalog of design skill styles, such as Minimal, Brutalism, and Glassmorphism, plus prompt layouts for marketing and application sections like heroes, pricing, FAQs, and login pages.
