## Global Styles
### styles/index.css
```css
/* styles/index.css */
/* Root variables */
:root {
--color-primary: #3b82f6;
--color-secondary: #10b981;
--font-size-base: 16px;
}
/* Global typography */
.slidev-layout h1 {
font-size: 2.5rem;
font-weight: 700;
color: var(--color-primary);
}
.slidev-layout h2 {
font-size: 1.75rem;
font-weight: 600;
color: var(--color-secondary);
}
/* Custom utility classes */
.highlight {
background: linear-gradient(120deg, #84fab0 0%, #8fd3f4 100%);
padding: 0 0.25em;
}
.shadow-brand {
box-shadow: 0 4px 14px 0 rgba(93, 131, 146, 0.39);
}
/* Animation classes */
.fade-in {
animation: fadeIn 0.5s ease-in;
}
@keyframes fadeIn {
from { opacity: 0; }
to { opacity: 1; }

## Scoped Styles
### Per-Slide Styles
Add `<style>` at the end of a slide:
```markdown
# My Styled Slide
<div class="custom-box">
Special content
</div>
<style>
.custom-box {
padding: 2rem;
background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%);
border-radius: 1rem;
color: white;
}
h1 {
color: #667eea;
text-shadow: 2px 2px 4px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
}
</style>
```
### Scoped vs Global
Styles in `<style>` are automatically scoped to the slide.
For global styles within a slide:
```markdown
<style>
:global(.slidev-layout) {
/* Affects all slides */
}
</style>
```
## Layout Utilities
### Flexbox
```markdown
<div class="flex flex-col gap-4">
<div>Item 1</div>
<div>Item 2</div>
</div>
<div class="flex items-center justify-center h-full">
<p>Centered content</p>
</div>
<div class="flex flex-wrap gap-2">
<span class="badge">Tag 1</span>
<span class="badge">Tag 2</span>
</div>
```
### Grid
```markdown
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-4">
<div>1</div>
<div>2</div>
<div>3</div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-4 gap-4">
<!-- Responsive grid -->
</div>
```
### Positioning
```markdown
<div class="relative">
<div class="absolute top-0 right-0">
Top right corner
</div>
</div>
<div class="fixed bottom-4 right-4">
Fixed position
</div>
```

})
```

```
## Dark Mode Styling
### Dark Mode Classes
```markdown
<div class="bg-white dark:bg-gray-800 text-gray-900 dark:text-white">

</div>
```

```
### Custom Animations
```css
/* styles/index.css */
@keyframes slideInLeft {
from {
transform: translateX(-100%);
opacity: 0;
}
to {
transform: translateX(0);
opacity: 1;
}
}
.animate-slide-in-left {
animation: slideInLeft 0.5s ease-out;
}
```
### Animation with v-motion
```markdown
<div
v-motion
:initial="{ opacity: 0, y: 50 }"
:enter="{ opacity: 1, y: 0, transition: { duration: 500 } }"
>

```
## Responsive Design

generating-lwc-components
IncludedLightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.
tanstack-query
IncludedManage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.
document-processor-api
IncludedProcess documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
nutrient-document-processing
IncludedProcess documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
tanstack-query
IncludedManage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Covers useMutationState, simplified optimistic updates, throwOnError, network mode (offline/PWA), and infiniteQueryOptions. Use when setting up data fetching, fixing v4→v5 migration errors (object syntax, gcTime, isPending, keepPreviousData), or debugging SSR/hydration issues with streaming server components.
accelint-nextjs-best-practices
IncludedNext.js performance optimization and best practices. Use when writing Next.js code (App Router or Pages Router); implementing Server Components, Server Actions, or API routes; optimizing RSC serialization, data fetching, or server-side rendering; reviewing Next.js code for performance issues; fixing authentication in Server Actions; or implementing Suspense boundaries, parallel data fetching, or request deduplication.
