The building guide
From a blank page to a coherent interface
A few considered choices at the start make every section that follows easier to build.
Getting started
Begin with the content. Decide what someone needs to understand and the action they should take next. Give that message a clear heading and enough space to stand on its own.
Choose a theme before refining individual components. Shared colors, type, and spacing help your page feel consistent without styling every element separately.
Next steps
Build one section at a time, starting with the smallest useful set of components. Reuse the same patterns as the page grows.
- Check the layout at narrow and wide widths.
- Try every interactive control with a keyboard.
- Review your content in light and dark themes.
When you are ready, read the building guide for the next step.
