Two design skills · both proven

theme-factory vs vercel-composition-patterns

Both skills were run through Claude twice: once on a fixed brief without the skill, once with it. The briefs differ because each is written for the job the skill claims to do, so compare each skill against its own baseline, then decide which difference matters for your work.

theme-factory

Toolkit for styling artifacts with a theme. These artifacts can be slides, docs, reportings, HTML landing pages, etc. There are 10 pre-set themes with colors/fonts that you can apply to any artifact that has been creating, or can generate a new theme on-the-fly.

Brief: “Build the one-page invitation site for the Harvest Table, a community garden's autumn dinner: a hero with the date and place, the story of the garden, the menu by course, the people cooking, a map drawn in inline SVG, and an RSVP form with success and error states. Make it feel warm and finished.”

Brief: “Refactor this React Modal component. It currently takes fourteen props, including isConfirm, isDanger, showFooter, footerAlign, hideClose, title, subtitle, icon, primaryLabel, secondaryLabel, onPrimary, onSecondary, size and children, and a dozen screens pass different combinations of them. Present the refactor as a single HTML page with the new API, the implementation, three call sites rewritten before and after, and a short note on why the new shape scales.”
