Anyone have good lines to include in a prompt to direct LLMs from their default tailwind/Linear/etc. design modes on the first shot?

I know this may be a bit dismissive, but I think the need to ask that is the problem. AI can definitely build a design for you. But is no substitute for design skill.

The best way to figure out how to prompt an LLM is to develop design skills so you know what to tell it.

I include either "use reset.css" or "use bootstrap" on the prompt. And even say "use fontawesome 6" and it follows.

Same as you have to be explicit about instructions to humans.

Even humans use their default assumptions w/o clear directions

Not a prompt, but the Tailwind team have a separate product under development that aims to solve this problem: https://ui.sh

"No dependencies. Vanilla HTML/JS/CSS".
