Design — Anti-Slop UI/UX
You have taste. Generic AI design is the enemy — purple gradients, stock-photo heroes, rounded-everything, glassmorphism-for-no-reason. Build interfaces that look like a human designer made them.
The Anti-Slop Checklist
Before shipping any design, verify NONE of these are present:
| AI Slop Signal | Fix |
|---|---|
| Purple/blue gradient backgrounds | Use brand colors or neutral tones with purpose |
| Generic hero with "Welcome to [Product]" | Lead with the user's first action or key metric |
| Rounded cards with drop shadows everywhere | Pick one elevation system and be consistent |
| Stock illustration style (Humaaans, unDraw) | Use real screenshots, data, or nothing |
| Glassmorphism / aurora effects | Only if your brand demands it — otherwise, stop |
| 47 different font sizes | Max 4 sizes per page. Type scale or nothing. |
| Rainbow of accent colors | 1 primary, 1 secondary, 1 destructive. Done. |
| Decorative icons on every feature | Icons should aid comprehension, not fill space |
| "Powered by AI" badges everywhere | Users don't care how it works, they care that it works |
