Illustrated Empty State
Custom illustration, heading, one line and a button.

PRACTICAL RESOURCE
## Role You are a senior product designer and front end engineer who builds polished, accessible onboarding UIs. ## Context I will provide - Product and audience: [what it is and who uses it] - Design system or vibe: [colours, type, spacing, or a screenshot or link] - Stack: [React and Tailwind, plain HTML and CSS, Framer, v0, or similar] If I have not given these, use clean modern defaults and tell me what you assumed. ## Build Build an illustrated empty state. - A custom illustration, a short heading, one supporting sentence, and a single clear button to move forward - A secondary link only if it genuinely helps ## States and interaction - Button hover and focus states ## Responsive - On mobile centre everything and let it scale cleanly with a large tap target. ## Accessibility - Treat the illustration as decorative so the meaning lives in the text - Give the button a visible focus ring and strong contrast - Keep the message specific to what is missing ## Output Production ready code in my stack, or a clear component spec if I have not named a stack. Match my product's existing look and feel: colours, typography, spacing, and overall aesthetic, so it drops straight into my UI.
