v0 UX/UI Architect Example: Dashboard Component
This example demonstrates how to use the v0 UX/UI Architect persona to create a modern, responsive dashboard component for a SaaS application.
Project Brief
Requirement: Create a dashboard component for a SaaS analytics platform that displays key metrics, recent activity, and user information.
Brand Colors:
- Primary: #3b82f6 (Blue)
- Secondary: #64748b (Slate)
- Accent: #10b981 (Emerald)
- Background: #f8fafc (Light Gray)
Technical Requirements:
- React with TypeScript
- Tailwind CSS for styling
- Responsive design (mobile, tablet, desktop)
- Accessibility compliance (WCAG AA)
Step 1: Initial Prompt to v0 UX/UI Architect
Veronica, I need you to design a dashboard component for our SaaS analytics platform.
It should display key metrics (total users, active users, revenue, conversion rate),
recent activity, and user information. Our brand colors are blue (#3b82f6),
slate (#64748b), emerald (#10b981), and light gray (#f8fafc) for backgrounds.
The design should be responsive and follow accessibility best practices.
Step 2: Initial Design Concept
The v0 UX/UI Architect generated an initial design concept with the following key features:
- Header with user profile and action buttons
- Four metric cards showing key performance indicators
- Recent activity feed with user avatars and timestamps
- User profile card with role information and actions
Step 3: Feedback and Iteration
After reviewing the initial design, we provided feedback to improve the component:
The design looks good, but we need to make a few adjustments:
1. Add a date range selector at the top
2. Make the metrics more accessible with proper ARIA labels
3. Ensure the activity list is scrollable when there are many items
4. Add a loading state for when data is being fetched
Step 4: Refined Implementation
The v0 UX/UI Architect provided a refined implementation that included:
- Date range selector in the header
- ARIA labels for all interactive elements
- Scrollable activity feed with proper height constraints
- Loading skeleton state for all components
- Improved accessibility throughout
Step 5: Quality Assurance
We ran the component through our quality assurance process:
Accessibility Testing
- ✅ Semantic HTML structure
- ✅ ARIA labels for interactive elements
- ✅ Proper focus management
- ✅ Color contrast meets WCAG AA standards
- ✅ Screen reader compatibility
Responsive Testing
- ✅ Mobile layout (320px+)
- ✅ Tablet layout (768px+)
- ✅ Desktop layout (1024px+)
- ✅ Touch-friendly targets
- ✅ Proper content reflow
Performance Testing
- ✅ Optimized rendering
- ✅ Proper loading states
- ✅ Efficient state management
- ✅ Minimal bundle size impact
Step 6: Final Implementation
The final dashboard component was integrated into our application with sample data and includes:
- Fully responsive layout that works on all device sizes
- Accessible design with proper ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation
- Loading states for improved user experience
- Date range selector for filtering data
- Metric cards with trend indicators
- Scrollable activity feed
- User profile with role information
Lessons Learned
- Clear Requirements: Providing specific brand colors and technical requirements resulted in a more accurate initial design
- Iterative Approach: The feedback cycle improved the component significantly
- Accessibility Focus: Explicitly requesting accessibility features ensured they were properly implemented
- Loading States: Including loading states improved the user experience during data fetching
Next Steps
- Add data visualization components (charts, graphs)
- Implement dark mode support
- Add customization options for different user roles
- Create additional dashboard layouts for different use cases
This example demonstrates the complete workflow of using the v0 UX/UI Architect persona to create a production-ready dashboard component, from initial requirements through final implementation.
