# Hard Prompt

## When To Use
Use this when you want AI to generate code with strict style consistency. It is the safest default for production UI.

## How To Use
- Copy the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or another coding assistant.
- Append the concrete product/page requirement after the prompt.
- After generation, check the forbidden rules and interaction states before accepting the output.

Strictly follow the style rules below and maintain consistency. No style drift allowed.

## Requirements

- Prioritize style consistency first, then creative extension.
- When conflicts arise, treat prohibitions as the highest priority.
- Self-check before output: verify colors, typography, spacing, and interactions still match this style.

## Core Features

Background:
- Main background: bg-[#d4a088] coral/terracotta
- Optional variants: bg-[#c9967a] darker, bg-[#e0b8a4] lighter

Cards:
- Background: bg-[#faf8f5] cream white or bg-white
- Rounded corners: rounded-2xl or rounded-3xl
- Shadows: shadow-xl shadow-black/8 (soft diffused)
- hover: hover:shadow-2xl hover:-translate-y-1

Color System:
- Teal (primary accent): #4a9d9a - for primary buttons, positive data
- Golden (chart primary): #e8b86d - for charts, highlights
- Coral (secondary accent): #c17767 - for negative data, warnings
- Sage (auxiliary): #6b8e8e - for secondary elements

Text:
- Headings: text-gray-800 font-semibold/bold
- Body: text-gray-600
- Secondary: text-gray-500 text-gray-400
- On warm background: text-white

## Layout

Sidebar:
- bg-white/80 backdrop-blur-xl
- Width w-60
- Contains logo, avatar, navigation

Main area:
- bg-[#d4a088] warm background
- p-6 md:p-8 lg:p-10
- Stats card grid + chart cards

## Forbidden

- Cool backgrounds (blue, purple, gray)
- Pure black text
- Sharp corners
- Hard-edge shadows
- Neon colors
- Thick borders

## Animation & Interaction Rules
- Micro-Focus: As a data-dense dashboard, card interactions must never cause dramatic visual jumps. Hover allows only very slight upward float (hover:-translate-y-0.5), with enhanced shadow (shadow-xl to shadow-2xl) to focus attention.
- Tinted Diffusion: Abandon dead-black shadows. Hover highlight operations (like primary buttons) must emit a soft halo in the same color family as the primary color (e.g., hover:shadow-[0_8px_20px_rgba(74,157,154,0.25)]), maintaining the overall warm atmosphere.
- Data Pulse: Enhance data readability. When hovering on data cards, key metrics (KPI values) can quickly micro-scale (group-hover:scale-105) or switch to accent color (teal or golden), helping users lock onto core information.
- Warm Utility: All state transitions must balance efficiency and softness, recommended duration-200 ease-out.

### Why they are banned
- `rounded-none`: Warm Dashboard uses large rounded corners (rounded-2xl or rounded-3xl)
- `rounded-sm`: Warm Dashboard uses large rounded corners (rounded-2xl or rounded-3xl)
- `text-black`: Warm Dashboard uses text-gray-800 for primary text, not pure black
- `border-2`: Warm Dashboard uses subtle single-pixel borders
- `bg-blue-500`: Warm Dashboard uses warm color palette, avoid cold backgrounds

> WARNING: if your code contains any of the above, replace it before shipping.
