Let me pull out my 5000 px tall monitor so I can see the examples further down the page. impeccable style, really

I had to go back and check, with "modern invisible scrollbars", and those useless theme settings at the bottom I assumed the page was just some css demo that ended there and left.

i do not understand what this even is. Some stylesheets? What am I even downloading when I click "download"?

To get something usable out of an LLM (aka vibecooding, vibe engineering et al), it works best if you're an expert yourself -> a.k.a you need to know the "lingo".

So there's the possibility of skipping the intermediate work in between by exposing yourself to just the input and the output of the process for certain domains, this is for frontend I think.

"Great design prompts require design vocabulary. Most people don't have it." Vocabulary is just the surface. Beneath it is an understanding of how to achieve your goals with design. How to make things that are easy to use, accessible, that create a certain impression. Does this website (presumably made with the help of these AI tools) show this kind of understanding of design? Not really. It's chaotic, the text is of…

Or, said another way, vocabulary provides us with the words (semantics). You also need a grammar (syntax), which itself needs to be ordered toward an end (pragmatics).

They set themselves up for a fall when they named themselves "Impeccable Style"

The mix of sans and serif fonts on their website is a mess. There's too much negative space, and it's inconsistent. Too many font sizes, and some that are so tiny they're illegible.

In the landing page before/after example, I think the "before" design looks more appealing.

I like the idea of this, but in the examples I thought the "Before" looked much better on all 3...

It was especially jarring on the last example with the cool looking chart, then removed for a bunch of text.

agreed, the information density on the "after" example is much worse for most dashboard use cases. Way too much space, not enough info. But I guess I'm not exactly surprised based on the style of the page being both zoomed in and spaced out

Come one, there are things to say about this project but the Download section is pretty clear. It installs commands for your LLMs and AI-based IDE. It states that clearly in the section.

If you’re not familiar with what a /command is in the context of LLM, this may just not be for you and that's fine, but the purpose is clearly stated.

Yes, but with LLMs, sometimes simply mentioning the right words is enough to prime the model in the direction you want to take it. If you start a prompt talking about leading and type pairings, it will take greater care with typography. You don't need to be an expert typographer to take advantage of this phenomenon.
