Anti-Patterns (Do NOT Use)

  • ❌ No automation

Additional Forbidden Patterns

  • Emojis as icons — Use SVG icons (Heroicons, Lucide, Simple Icons)
  • Missing cursor:pointer — All clickable elements must have cursor:pointer
  • Layout-shifting hovers — Avoid scale transforms that shift layout
  • Low contrast text — Maintain 4.5:1 minimum contrast ratio
  • Instant state changes — Always use transitions (150-300ms)
  • Invisible focus states — Focus states must be visible for a11y
