LeafyGreen Authoring Conventions

Apply these conventions whenever writing or editing React components in a project that uses @leafygreen-ui/* packages.

Always prefer LeafyGreen components over plain HTML

When a user asks to add any UI element — in plain language, from a Figma design, or anywhere else — always check if a LeafyGreen component exists for it first. Never use a plain HTML element (<button>, <input>, <select>, etc.) when an @leafygreen-ui equivalent is available.

Common mappings:

User asks for…	Use
Button, CTA	`@leafygreen-ui/button` → `Button`
Text input, text field	`@leafygreen-ui/text-input` → `TextInput`
Dropdown, select	`@leafygreen-ui/select` → `Select`, `Option`
Searchable dropdown	`@leafygreen-ui/combobox` → `Combobox`
Search box	`@leafygreen-ui/search-input` → `SearchInput`
Number field	`@leafygreen-ui/number-input` → `NumberInput`
Checkbox	`@leafygreen-ui/checkbox` → `Checkbox`
Radio button	`@leafygreen-ui/radio-group` → `RadioGroup`, `Radio`
Toggle, switch	`@leafygreen-ui/toggle` → `Toggle`
Icon button	`@leafygreen-ui/icon-button` → `IconButton`
Icon	`@leafygreen-ui/icon` → `Icon`
Heading, body text, label	`@leafygreen-ui/typography` → `H1`–`H3`, `Body`, `Label`, `Subtitle`
Modal, dialog	`@leafygreen-ui/modal` → `Modal`
Tooltip	`@leafygreen-ui/tooltip` → `Tooltip`
Tabs	`@leafygreen-ui/tabs` → `Tabs`, `Tab`
Table	`@leafygreen-ui/table` → `Table`, `Row`, `Cell`
Badge, tag, chip	`@leafygreen-ui/badge` → `Badge`
Banner, alert	`@leafygreen-ui/banner` → `Banner`
Toast, notification	`@leafygreen-ui/toast` → `Toast`
Menu, context menu	`@leafygreen-ui/menu` → `Menu`, `MenuItem`
Card	`@leafygreen-ui/card` → `Card`
Code block	`@leafygreen-ui/code` → `Code`
Logo / logomark	`@leafygreen-ui/logo` → `MongoDBLogoMark`, `MongoDBLogo`
Stepper, progress steps	`@leafygreen-ui/stepper` → `Stepper`, `Step`
Pipeline	`@leafygreen-ui/pipeline` → `Pipeline`, `Stage`

If a package is not yet installed, install it before writing the component code:

npm install @leafygreen-ui/[package-name]

Component imports

Always use named imports for LG components:

import { H1, Body, Subtitle } from '@leafygreen-ui/typography'
import { Button } from '@leafygreen-ui/button'
import Icon from '@leafygreen-ui/icon'           // default import
import { MongoDBLogoMark } from '@leafygreen-ui/logo'

Styling approach

Always use design tokens from @leafygreen-ui/tokens for colors — never hard-coded hex values. Tokens are the single source of truth for color in the design system and automatically resolve to the correct value for dark or light mode.

import { palette } from '@leafygreen-ui/tokens'

// Correct: use a token
color: palette.gray.dark2

// Avoid: hard-coded hex
color: '#3D4F58'

Figma MCP → auto-install missing packages

When implementing a design from the Figma MCP, the component descriptions include the LeafyGreen package name, e.g.:

⚛️ React name: @leafygreen-ui/text-input
⚛️ React name: @leafygreen-ui/select

Before writing any component code:

Scan all ⚛️ React name: entries in the Figma design context
Cross-check each @leafygreen-ui/* package against package.json
Install any that are missing: npm install @leafygreen-ui/[package-name]
Never substitute plain HTML for a LeafyGreen component that is called out in the design spec

File structure

New components go in src/components/[ComponentName].tsx
One component per file
Name files and components in PascalCase: ProjectCard.tsx, not project-card.tsx
Ask before creating new folders outside of src/components/
