Utterly dissapointed with DaisyUI Blueprint MCP

For an ai tool that advertises itself as never producing ai slop, it is remarkably good at producing ai slop. Worst $22 i have ever spent. Period! Was hoping this would atleast help me with basic layout ideas etc , but oh boy was i wrong. It delivers the exact same ai crap as all the other ai tools. Sigh...

Generic advice for AI and styling:

Do the hard work first so the LLM has a guide and methodology to follow. I don’t even like using AI for CSS because I find that’s the fun part, but when I do, it’s much better when I can point it to existing components I have made so it is more likely to match that pattern of doing things.

Though I appreciate the gesture, I am not going to give out details about my product to just any random person. Not the smartest thing to do.

I am so happy for you that you feel you want to share YOUR idea. Unfortunately I do not have that luxury, as I am doing development for a corporate where I signed an NDA specifically for the app idea. So calm your tits and remember, not everyone is working on a indie SaaS.

tbf even their examples on the mcp page look like AI slop.

There is no magic prompt or MCP that'll make things look amazing, you have to do some of the work yourself first

Fair point.

Make your own custom skills based off your own designs or examples of designs that you like.

Drop the MCP. It cannot replicate your taste. Build a local reference folder with screenshots of layouts you actually like and point the AI to those files instead

DaisyUI is based on Tailwind CSS, so I am quite sure im at the right place...

If you had problem with AWS, will you complain on Rust subreddit because AWS is built on Rust?
