Web Artifacts Builder

anthropics/skills

Ambitious claude.ai artifacts with many moving parts: React, Tailwind, component libraries, real state and routing rather than a single static page.

Situations it fits

You're building a small claude.ai artifact that needs tabs, a search box, saved state, and three views of the same data.

Web Artifacts Builder. Multi-component, stateful, routed artifacts are web-artifacts-builder's stated territory (React + Tailwind + shadcn/ui). Simple one-file artifacts don't need it - tabs, state, and views do.

For the workshop you're giving, you want attendees to play with a little interactive demo on claude.ai: sliders change a simulation, results update live.

Web Artifacts Builder. Interactive, stateful, shareable on claude.ai - a complex artifact, which is web-artifacts-builder's job. frontend-design would make it PRETTY, but the structural need (state, components, interactivity) decides the skill.

The interactive dashboard is designed and specced. You want it built and then actually clicked through before you show anyone.

Web Artifacts Builder. web-artifacts-builder first: nothing can be tested until the multi-view artifact exists. webapp-testing second, to drive it in a real browser and catch what reading the code cannot. Build then verify is the obvious order, which is why this round is a warm-up for the combo idea rather than a trick.

You want a shareable interactive org chart on claude.ai: click a team to expand it, search people, filter by office.

Web Artifacts Builder. Click-to-expand, search, filters = state and components = a complex artifact. canvas-design tempts because 'org chart' sounds like a diagram you draw - but a drawn chart can't be clicked. Interactivity is the deciding word.
