Listen, if you don't try my MCP server, you're a certified loser.

Because AI interacts with the Starwind UI exactly how I envisioned.

Bonus: it’s open source!

I implemented tailwind-variants yesterday for all the components!

Is an llms.txt file actually useful?

I implemented one for Starwind UI and tried to have Claude use it in Windsurf

Claude 3.7 just wants to do everything itself rather than using the CLI. I have to specifically prompt it to use the CLI that it should use in the first place.

Wow. The new www.cloudflare.com has been built with Astro. Netlify.com already is, and I know Fastly is in the process of moving all of its sites. If you're a hosting company or CDN and you're not using Astro, you're being left behind!

I think "tailwind-variants" might be the answer

Looks like it can do everything I need from "class-variance-authority", and it uses "tailwind-merge" to handle class conflicts

Any other options?

Anyone else find it incredibly difficult to just stop working?

Me: just sitting at the beach, enjoying the sound of the crashing waves

My brain: what can we use to override tailwind classes for Starwind UI?

Me: begins furiously researching

It's been great seeing the work you guys have been doing!

Custom events to make elements easy to use?

Bet.

#starwindui

You're about to get some excellent components

I've been cooking 👀

#starwindui

<button role="button" type="button">

Gotta make sure that button truly knows that it is, in fact, a button

Hear me out, what if @astro.build had it's own component library like shadcn...

Launch your AstroJS docs in style with Pathfinder, the unique and modern documentation template. Built with powerful features to make your life easy.

Plus, easy integration with other Tailwind v4 templates by Cosmic Themes

When someone thanks the Cosmic Themes team

Oh yeah, it's all coming together

Emitting a custom event seems the best way for external components to do something with a switch toggle.

Any opposing viewpoints here?

An army of alerts ⚠️

I had the dedication to spend weeks of development time, and then on top of that spreading the word about the track through friends in the track design community, Forgehub posts, and other locations.

I also had WAY too much time on my hands.

I knew I would be an engineer when I was 15.

How? Video games.

I had well over 100,000 downloads on racetracks I made in Halo 3. I had learned all the tricks to making them and had interesting and differing design ideas.

I had the dedication to 1/2

Internal debate I'm having. Require "as" to convert Button to an anchor tag, or imply it when the user adds an "href" prop?

Requiring "as" only allows anchor tag props when you use as="a", otherwise all props validate

I'm leaning toward implying it, to remove the need for the "as" prop completely

Got to work on a docs theme concept

Thoughts?

Got to work on a docs theme concept

Thoughts?

The next theme might be a documentation theme. Adding starlight to a theme is challenging, as it's hard to separate tailwind styling from starlight styling. I ran into this issue while working on a docs site for another project

The challenge will be making it integrate well with existing themes...
