Apply exact Tailwind arbitrary shadow utilities for polished, layered neutral elevation. Use when compact cards, controls, panels, popovers, hero media, feature callouts, or modal-like containers need refined shadows without default Tailwind shadow scales or colored tinting.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

9 rules. About 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Distinctive:

    Default Tailwind shadows feel too generic or blunt.

  2. Distinctive:

    Use these exact Tailwind classes.

  3. Distinctive:

    Use for compact cards, form controls, pills, and quieter surfaces.

  4. Distinctive:

    Use for cards, panels, popovers, and the default elevated surface style.

  5. Distinctive:

    Use for hero media, feature callouts, modal-like containers, and the strongest lift.

  7. Very specific:

    Use Beautiful md for cards, panels, popovers, and the default elevated surface style.

  8. Very specific:

    Use Beautiful lg for hero media, feature callouts, modal-like containers, and the strongest lift.

    line 48
  9. Distinctive:

    Use one shadow strength per component state unless an interaction clearly changes elevation.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Beautiful Shadows

Use When

  • A surface needs polished, layered elevation.
  • Default Tailwind shadows feel too generic or blunt.
  • The design needs neutral, refined depth without colored glow.

Shadow Utilities

Use these exact Tailwind classes.

Beautiful sm

Use for compact cards, form controls, pills, and quieter surfaces.

shadow-[0px_2px_3px_-1px_rgba(0,0,0,0.1),0px_1px_0px_0px_rgba(25,28,33,0.02),0px_0px_0px_1px_rgba(25,28,33,0.08)]

Beautiful md

Use for cards, panels, popovers, and the default elevated surface style.

shadow-[0px_0px_0px_1px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_1px_1px_-0.5px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_3px_3px_-1.5px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),_0px_6px_6px_-3px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_12px_12px_-6px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_24px_24px_-12px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06)]

Beautiful lg

Use for hero media, feature callouts, modal-like containers, and the strongest lift.

shadow-[0_2.8px_2.2px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.034),_0_6.7px_5.3px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.048),_0_12.5px_10px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.06),_0_22.3px_17.9px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.072),_0_41.8px_33.4px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.086),_0_100px_80px_rgba(0,_0,_0,_0.12)]

Examples

<div class="rounded-xl bg-white shadow-[0px_0px_0px_1px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_1px_1px_-0.5px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_3px_3px_-1.5px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),_0px_6px_6px_-3px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_12px_12px_-6px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06),0px_24px_24px_-12px_rgba(0,0,0,0.06)]">

</div>

Usage Rules

  • Use Beautiful sm for compact cards, form controls, pills, and quieter surfaces.
  • Use Beautiful md for cards, panels, popovers, and the default elevated surface style.
  • Use Beautiful lg for hero media, feature callouts, modal-like containers, and the strongest lift.
  • Pair with a clean surface fill and a consistent radius.
  • Use one shadow strength per component state unless an interaction clearly changes elevation.

Avoid

  • Mixing these with default Tailwind shadow scales on the same component.
  • Tinting these shadows with strong colors; keep them neutral and refined.
  • Applying Beautiful lg to dense lists or tiny controls.
  • Stacking multiple shadow utilities on one element.
  • Using these as a substitute for clear borders in very low-contrast layouts.
