# Minimalist Japanese shadcn/ui Components

Artifact: `component-recipes-v1`
Author: `katagami-ui-projection`
Language ID: `en-019d9bb7-9435-7200-aedf-300c280ac887`
Slug: `minimalist-japanese`

## Intent

A restrained interface language inspired by Japanese editorial layouts, washitsu proportions, shoji translucency, and the discipline of leaving space intentionally unused. It values pause, rhythm, tactility, and quiet emphasis over decorative abundance.

## Required primitives

- button
- card
- input
- textarea
- select
- dialog
- sheet
- tabs
- badge
- separator
- checkbox
- switch
- slider
- tooltip
- dropdown-menu
- table

Install with `npx shadcn@latest add button card input textarea select dialog sheet tabs badge separator checkbox switch slider tooltip dropdown-menu table`.

## Token cues

Colors:

{
  "primary": "#1F1A17",
  "secondary": "#6E655C",
  "accent": "#B33A2B",
  "background": "#F3EEE6",
  "surface": "#FBF8F2",
  "text": "#1A1613",
  "muted": "#8B8178",
  "border": "#544B44",
  "error": "#9E2A1F",
  "success": "#58734F",
  "warning": "#A36A1A",
  "info": "#486A7D"
}

Typography:

{
  "heading_font": "\"Zen Old Mincho\", serif",
  "body_font": "\"Zen Kaku Gothic New\", sans-serif",
  "mono_font": "\"IBM Plex Mono\", monospace",
  "base_size": "16px",
  "scale_ratio": "1.2",
  "line_height": "1.7",
  "letter_spacing": "0.02em",
  "google_fonts_url": "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=IBM+Plex+Mono:wght@400;500&family=Zen+Kaku+Gothic+New:wght@400;500;700&family=Zen+Old+Mincho:wght@500;700&display=swap"
}

## Visual character to preserve

- hairline charcoal frames on every container with wide interior padding and visible breathing room
- vertical section labels set in a narrow side rail using upright Japanese-style reading direction
- off-white paper surfaces with subtle fiber grain and translucent shoji panels layered over warm neutral backgrounds
- small vermilion seal accents used sparingly as square stamps for status, counts, and confirmations
- long horizontal divider rules that extend past headings to create quiet editorial tension

## ShadSync visual profile

{
  "family": "paper-collage",
  "material": "paper",
  "contour": "pebble",
  "border": "solid",
  "underlay": true,
  "grain": true,
  "stickerBadges": true,
  "motion": "lift-rotate",
  "density": "balanced",
  "accents": [
    "primary",
    "accent",
    "secondary",
    "muted"
  ]
}

## Signature component recipes

### Button
Use `Button` for primary, secondary, outline, and ghost actions. Primary actions must expose the language's strongest contrast pair, while secondary and ghost actions should preserve the surface treatment instead of falling back to default neutral SaaS styling.

### Card
Use `Card`, `CardHeader`, `CardContent`, `CardFooter`, and `CardAction` as the main composition frame. Cards should demonstrate the language's surface, border, hierarchy, and density rules rather than appearing as generic rounded rectangles.

### Input and Textarea
Use `Input` and `Textarea` with visible focus rings, field labels, validation states, and the language's rhythm. Forms should show real product content, not placeholder-only controls.

### Select, Tabs, and Table
Use `Select`, `Tabs`, and `Table` to prove navigation, filtering, and dense data states. The table should show row rhythm, separators, hover/focus states, and an empty or status state when the language calls for it.

### Dialog and Sheet
Use `Dialog` for centered decisions and `Sheet` for contextual editing. Both should inherit the language's spacing, border, overlay, and motion rules.

## Preview shots

- `application-shell`: dashboard or workspace shell with navigation, cards, forms, and state badges.
- `detail-editor`: focused editing flow using input, textarea, select, switch/checkbox, dialog or sheet, and action buttons.
- `data-operations`: table-heavy operational view with tabs, dropdown menu affordances, badges, and destructive/empty states.
- Each preview shot must include a renderable `scene` payload with concrete headline, description, actions, and rows/fields/stats for the UI preview.

## Implementation contract

- Start from local `ui/src/components/ui` shadcn-style primitives; do not create a second component system.
- Apply `/katagami/shadcn/minimalist-japanese/registry-theme.json` variables, then use these recipes for composition and state design.
- Preserve Katagami token names as source metadata; shadcn semantic names are only the export surface.
- Do: use vermilion only for signals that deserve ritual attention; let borders, rules, and spacing carry structure before adding fills; combine Mincho headings with gothic UI labels for clear role separation; keep cards quiet and tactile with paper texture and low-contrast surfaces; treat vertical labels as navigational architecture, not decoration
- Do not: do not center all content or create perfectly symmetrical dashboards; do not turn every status into a bright chip or pill; do not use heavy shadows or glossy gradients; do not collapse whitespace to fit more widgets; do not animate with bounce, spring, or playful overshoot

## Copy-paste component example

This generated starter proves the import shape. Production Katagami agents should replace it with a language-specific product composition.

export function MinimalistJapaneseShadcnKit() {

## Layout notes

{
  "grid": "Desktop uses a 12-column asymmetrical editorial grid with a fixed narrow side rail and a dominant 8-column content field beside supporting 3-column stacks. Tablet collapses to 8 columns with the rail becoming a horizontal label band. Phone uses a single-column flow with internal panel grids preserved only where horizontal scrolling is appropriate.",
  "breakpoints": "1200px+ full editorial spread; 1024px two-tier grid with compressed rail; 768px stacked narrative panels; 480px single-column mobile with full-width actions, scrollable tables, and stacked tab/filter controls.",
  "whitespace": "Whitespace is structural. Use 40-96px outer margins on desktop, 24-40px on tablet, and 16-24px on phone. Never fill every cell; preserve blank modules to create rhythm."
