Cursor Tailwind UI Component Rules Pack

Stop fixing broken Tailwind components. Start generating perfect ones on the first try.

You open Cursor to build a UI, but it keeps giving you bloated class soup, missing responsive rules, and weird accessibility gaps. You rewrite the prompt, tweak a few classes, and regenerate again… and again. You don’t want to babysit the model. You just want components that work.

The Cursor Tailwind UI Component Rules Pack is a set of 14 production‑ready rule files that force Cursor to generate consistent, accessible, design‑system‑aligned Tailwind and shadcn/ui components with zero prompt rewriting. Every rule is tuned to prevent prompt drift, enforce atomic class boundaries, and lock in predictable, production‑safe output.

What’s Included:
- 1 Tailwind Class Consistency Rule: Enforces spacing, colors, typography, borders, and breakpoints.
- 1 Atomic Boundary Map: Prevents CSS regressions and specificity conflicts.
- 1 Stateful Component Directive Set: Production‑safe patterns for hover, focus, disabled, loading, and invalid states.
- 1 Responsive Layout Constraint File: Ensures reliable mobile‑first output with no layout shifts.
- 1 Accessibility Enforcement Rule: Keyboard, ARIA, and focus‑ring requirements for every component.
- 1 Animation Constraint Guide: Prevents janky transitions and restricts animations to safe patterns.
- 3 Component Composition Rules: Clean, modular layering for cards, menus, headers, and forms.
- 3 shadcn/ui Generation Rules: Guarantees component‑safe Tailwind output without class collisions.
- 2 Debug Prevention Rules: Eliminates inconsistent spacing and unexpected overrides.

This pack is built from patterns used to ship production apps with large Tailwind design systems across multiple teams. Every rule exists because it prevented a real bug, fixed a real inconsistency, or saved hours of debugging during high‑pressure releases.

Who This Is For:
- Developers using Cursor daily who are tired of regenerating broken components.
- Founders or solo builders who need consistent UI without hiring a designer.
- Teams maintaining a shared Tailwind system and fighting component drift.

Who This Is NOT For:
- Developers who write every component manually and don’t use AI.
- Projects that don’t use Tailwind, shadcn/ui, or atomic utility classes.

Guarantee: If this pack doesn’t cut your component creation time from hours to minutes, reach out for a full refund.
