TypeUI - Build better UI with AI

TypeUI is an AI-first platform where you can use design skills, UI prompts, and other resources to enhance AI capabilities to generate better user interfaces and design when building websites and applications. The resources from this repository will work with any AI provider, given they support markdown files or general prompting.

Getting started

Install TypeUI where you build. Connect your AI coding tool to TypeUI MCP, then ask for UI in plain language while TypeUI supplies design systems, prompts, and layout variation guidance.

Design skills

Check out all design skills. Available in both DESIGN.md and SKILL.md formats.

UI design prompts

Browse all major UI prompt categories from TypeUI Prompts.

UI/UX Fundamentals

Use our official skill for UI/UX fundamentals based on years of experience, knowledge and data from the design world to make sure that any UI you generate together with the design skills and UI prompts from TypeUI will keep fundamental design principles in order, such as spacing, typography, color contrasts, and more.

Run this command to install it locally:

npx skills add https://github.com/bergside/typeui --skill typeui-fundamentals

CLI commands

All commands run via npx typeui.sh. Add --help to any command to see its options.

generate

Run interactive prompts and generate a fresh SKILL.md (default) or DESIGN.md file.

npx typeui.sh generate
npx typeui.sh generate --format design

update

Run interactive prompts and update existing output files in place.

npx typeui.sh update

randomize

Generate a fully randomized local design system — useful for quickly seeding a starter spec.

npx typeui.sh randomize
npx typeui.sh randomize --format design

list

Browse available registry specs from bergside/awesome-design-skills (with typeui.sh preview links), then pull one automatically.

npx typeui.sh list
npx typeui.sh list --format design

pull <slug>

Pull a registry markdown file by slug. SKILL.md writes to provider paths; DESIGN.md writes to the project root.

npx typeui.sh pull <slug>
npx typeui.sh pull <slug> --format design

Local development

If you want to use this locally these are the commands you need to run:

npm install

npm run build

Then use the following command instead of npx in your terminal:
