daisyUI 5 usage rules

1. To style an HTML element, add daisyUI class names to it. Add the necessary component class name. Also add the applicable part and modifier class names.
2. If the current daisyUI classes cannot make a necessary change, use Tailwind CSS utility classes. For example, btn px-10 sets custom horizontal padding on a btn.
3. If CSS specificity prevents a change to a daisyUI style, add ! to the end of the Tailwind utility. For example, btn bg-red-500! overrides the background color of a btn. Use this method only if other methods do not work. Do not use it frequently.
4. If daisyUI does not have an applicable component, make a component with Tailwind CSS utilities.
5. When you use Tailwind CSS flex or grid for a layout, add responsive utility prefixes.
6. Use only current daisyUI class names or Tailwind CSS utility classes.
7. If custom CSS is not necessary, do not write it. If possible, use daisyUI class names or Tailwind CSS utility classes.
8. If you need placeholder images, use https://picsum.photos/200/300 with the necessary dimensions.
9. If a custom font is not necessary, do not add one.
10. If bg-base-100 text-base-content is not necessary, do not add it to the body.
11. For design decisions, use the methods in the Refactoring UI book.
12. If the user does not request a variant or color, use the default variant. For example, use btn for a button. If the user does not request that variant, do not use btn btn-primary.
