How to use minimal templates with Kiro
Pick a design
Choose a minimal design above and open it to see it live.
Copy the template
Copy the template from its page. It is one HTML file with no dependencies.
Set up Kiro
Save the template and its DESIGN.md in your project, and add a steering file in .kiro/steering that tells Kiro to follow them in every spec.
Prompt, then refine
Paste it and describe your product. Then follow up with: "Add a task to build this section from design/template.html, following DESIGN.md for colours, type and spacing."
What makes a good minimal section
Common types: text-led landing pages, minimal heroes, simple pricing and quiet portfolios.
Lots of space
Space does the work that decoration usually does.
Strong type
Clear sizes and weights carry the hierarchy.
Few colours
Black, white and one accent at most.
Common mistake: Minimal turning into empty: removing the information people need.
Keeping the design in Kiro
Kiro plans each feature as a spec with requirements, a technical design and tasks, so it suits teams who want UI work planned as carefully as the code.
What Kiro builds
Code in your project's stack, built task by task from a Kiro spec.
Where the design goes
Save the template and its DESIGN.md in your project, and add a steering file in .kiro/steering that tells Kiro to follow them in every spec.
Kiro and minimal sections
Kiro's spec design.md covers architecture, not looks, so without DESIGN.md the UI falls back to generic choices. Paste the template again with your follow-up prompt if it starts to drift.
What to tell it
Keep the spacing and type scale exactly; when you add content, add space with it.
Set it up once with our DESIGN.md templates.
Not sure which minimal design fits?
Ask Mon, the AI design assistant, describe your product and Mon suggests the minimal design and how to prompt Kiro with it.
