daisyUI
The official daisyUI skill and plugin: the agent builds Tailwind CSS interfaces with ready component, color and theme classes
Install
claude plugin marketplace add saadeghi/daisyui
claude plugin install daisyui@daisyuiThis is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
The skill makes the agent rely on daisyUI 5 for Tailwind CSS 4 whenever it writes HTML or JSX. It is split into references: project install, class usage, theme and prefix config, semantic colors and a separate file for each component from accordion to tooltip. The agent reads the relevant component guides before writing markup, so it invents fewer non-existent classes. The same marketplace offers a daisyui-blueprint plugin with an MCP server, which requires a paid license.
Who it is for. For frontend developers who use or plan to use daisyUI and Tailwind CSS with an agent.
Good fit when
- The project already uses daisyUI and the agent mixes up component classes
- You need a quick Tailwind CSS interface without your own design system
- You need to configure daisyUI themes and colors
Not a fit when
- The project uses another component library such as shadcn/ui: the skill tells the agent to use daisyUI for all markup
- There is no Tailwind CSS 4 and no plan to move to it
Example request
Build a pricing page with daisyUI: three cards and a dark theme toggleLimitations
The skill targets daisyUI 5 and Tailwind CSS 4. It triggers on any markup work, so keep it off in projects without daisyUI. The Blueprint MCP server from the same marketplace needs a paid license.
How to disable. Run claude plugin uninstall daisyui or remove the plugin via /plugin.
Security check
- The skill consists of instructions and class references
