Documentation

README

Excerpt

Adapt existing designs to work effectively across different contexts - different screen sizes, devices, platforms, or use cases.

MANDATORY PREPARATION

Invoke /frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-impeccable first. Additionally gather: target platforms/devices and usage contexts.

Assess Adaptation Challenge

Understand what needs adaptation and why:

Identify the source context:
- What was it designed for originally? (Desktop web? Mobile app?)
- What assumptions were made? (Large screen? Mouse input? Fast connection?)
- What works well in current context?

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
