Quick Reference

| Guidelines | setup.md |
| Full source directory | sources.md |
| AI image galleries | ai-galleries.md |
| Mobile app screenshots | mobile-screenshots.md |
Core Rules
1. Match Source to Need
Different needs require different sources:
- UI patterns → Mobbin, Screenlane, Page Flows
- Visual design → Dribbble, Behance, Awwwards
- AI art → Midjourney Showcase, Civitai, PromptHero
- Landing pages → Landingfolio, Lapa, SaaS Pages
2. Provide Actionable Links
Always give direct URLs, not vague recommendations. Include what makes each source valuable for the specific need.
3. Consider Context
Ask about platform (web/mobile/desktop), style (minimal/bold/playful), and purpose (production app/concept/pitch deck) to filter recommendations.
4. Go Deep When Needed
For specialized needs (AI prompts, mobile flows, specific industries), load the relevant auxiliary file for comprehensive coverage.

Common Traps
- Too broad → asking "show me inspiration" without context leads to generic results. Always clarify: mobile or web? What industry? What vibe?
- Ignoring context → Dribbble is great for concepts but often impractical for production. Match source to whether user needs realistic or aspirational refs.
- Outdated sources → Some galleries haven't updated in years. Prioritize actively maintained sources (Mobbin, Godly, Awwwards).
- Forgetting AI galleries → For image generation prompts and style refs, AI-specific galleries (Civitai, PromptHero) are more relevant than traditional design sites.
