# Liquid Glass — Apple's Design System ## When to Use This Skill - Implementing Liquid Glass effects in your app - Reviewing existing UI for Liquid Glass adoption opportunities - Debugging visual artifacts with Liquid Glass materials - Optimizing Liquid Glass performance - Requesting expert review of Liquid Glass implementation - Redesigning a mobile app UI to feel iOS-native with glass materials - Understanding Regular vs Clear variants, tinting, legibility - Conducting design reviews with professional push-back frameworks --- ## Part 1: Design Philosophy ### Core Principles - **Native over custom** — Use system components and patterns first - **Restraint over spectacle** — Glass is a tool for hierarchy, not decoration - **Material is functional, not decorative** — Improves clarity and depth - **"Feels obvious" rather than "looks fancy"** — Calm, confident, inevitable - **Glass complements content** — Lets content shine through Avoid trendy glassmorphism gimmicks.
