Give your app the style you have in mind

Every new app starts on the platform's own look, with soft colour rooms and ready-made components. When you already know how your app should look, say so in your prompt, and the app is built in that style instead.

Ask for it by name

Put the style in the same sentence as the app:

• "a reading list that looks like a Claude artifact"
• "a habit tracker in Material 3"
• "a gig list for my band, neo-brutalist like Gumroad"
• "a server status board in a terminal style"
• "a recipe box styled like a newspaper"
• "settings for my book club, like iOS settings"
• "a bake sale order form in our colours #1F3A5F and #F2B134, set in Fraunces"

The builder takes in the style's palette, type, spacing and shapes, and builds the whole app in it: lists, forms and detail views alike. When you paste your own brand colours and a font, those become the app's palette.

Styles are drawn "inspired by". Your app takes a style's look, and its pages carry your app's own name and words rather than another company's name or logo.

Keep adjusting it

The style lives on the same colour settings every app has, so the Style tab works on it like on any app. A pick there sets the app's whole style from the Style tab's palette, font and corners, in place of the one your prompt asked for. To keep your style and change one detail, ask for it in chat: "make the accent a deeper green" reworks the style the app already wears.

Move to the platform look

An app in your own style can move onto the platform's look whenever you like. The owner runs:

bashnpx vibes-diy app look set you/your-app --theme pouf

and the reverse, to let an existing app wear the style its own code writes:

bashnpx vibes-diy app look set you/your-app --theme custom

Both are served right away. The next build you ask for is written for the look the app now wears.
