---name: website-builder-setupdescription: Install the full AI website builder stack — UI/UX Pro Max, Framer Motion animations, and 21st.dev components. One skill, three tools, zero coding experience needed.---

Website Builder Setup

This skill walks you through installing everything you need to build professional, animated websites with Claude Code. No coding experience required.

What Gets Installed

Tool	What it does
UI/UX Pro Max	Gives Claude access to 50+ design styles, 161 color palettes, 57 font pairings. Your sites look designed, not generated.
Framer Motion	Adds smooth animations — page transitions, hover effects, scroll reveals. Makes sites feel alive.
21st.dev Magic	A library of 100+ polished React components Claude can pull from. Production-quality building blocks.

Workflow

When this skill is triggered, walk the user through each step one at a time. Be encouraging and clear — assume they have zero coding experience. If any step fails, don't stop. Acknowledge it, give them the manual command, and keep moving.

Step 1: Check Prerequisites

Before we start, let me make sure you have what we need.

Run this silently:

node --version 2>&1 && npm --version 2>&1

• If Node.js is installed → say "You're good — Node.js is installed. Let's go."
• If NOT installed → say:

You need Node.js first. Go to https://nodejs.org and download the LTS version. Install it, restart your terminal, then come back and run /website-builder-setup again. Takes 2 minutes.

Stop here if Node is missing.

Step 2: Install UI/UX Pro Max

Step 1 of 3: UI/UX Pro Max

This gives me a massive design library — 50+ styles, 161 color palettes, 57 font pairings. When you ask me to build a website, I'm pulling from a real design system instead of guessing. This is why the output won't look like generic AI slop.

Installing now...

Run:

npm install -g uipro-cli 2>&1

Then:

uipro init --ai claude 2>&1

• On success → "UI/UX Pro Max is installed. Your design stack is ready."
• On failure → "Hit a snag. You can try manually later: npm install -g uipro-cli && uipro init --ai claude. Let's keep going."

Step 3: Install Framer Motion

Step 2 of 3: Framer Motion

This teaches me how to add real animations to your websites — smooth page transitions, hover effects, scroll-triggered reveals. The stuff that makes a $500 site look like a $10,000 site.

Installing now...

Run:

npm install framer-motion 2>&1

• On success → "Framer Motion is installed. Your sites will have real animations now."
• On failure → "Hit a snag. You can try manually later: npm install framer-motion. Moving on."

Step 4: Set Up 21st.dev Magic

Step 3 of 3: 21st.dev Components

This connects me to a library of 100+ beautifully designed React components. Instead of building everything from scratch, I pull from production-quality building blocks — buttons, navbars, hero sections, cards, footers — all pre-designed and ready to use.

This one needs a free API key. Here's how to get it:

1. Go to https://21st.dev/magic/console
2. Sign up or log in (it's free)
3. Copy your API key
4. Paste it here when I ask for it

Wait for the user to provide their API key.

Once they provide it, add the MCP server to their Claude Code config:

Read ~/.claude.json, find the mcpServers object, and add:

"21st-dev-magic": {
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "@21st-dev/magic@latest"],
  "env": {
    "API_KEY": "THEIR_KEY_HERE"
  }
}

After writing the config:

21st.dev Magic is connected. You'll need to restart Claude Code for this one to kick in — just close and reopen your terminal after we're done.

Step 5: Done

You're all set. Here's what you just installed:

• UI/UX Pro Max — 50+ styles, 161 palettes, 57 font pairings
• Framer Motion — smooth, professional animations
• 21st.dev Magic — 100+ production-ready components

To build your first website, just tell me:

• What your business does
• Who it's for
• What vibe you want (dark, minimal, bold, playful, etc.)

I'll handle the rest. Try something like:

"Build me a landing page for my consulting business targeting small business owners. Dark theme, modern, with animations."

Important: Restart Claude Code first so 21st.dev loads in. Then let's build something.

Rules

• Walk through each step ONE AT A TIME
• Never dump all instructions at once
• If any install fails, don't stop — acknowledge, give manual command, keep moving
• Be encouraging and casual throughout
• Assume zero coding experience
• After everything is installed, prompt them to build their first site
