v0 Component Design
Integrate v0.dev with Claude Code to create beautiful, functional React components through AI-powered design and development workflows.
What is v0?
v0 is Vercel’s AI-powered UI generator that creates React components from text descriptions. When combined with Claude Code, it creates a powerful workflow for rapid UI development.
Integration Workflow
1. Design with v0
Start by creating components with v0:
Go to v0.dev and create a user profile card component with:
- Avatar image
- Name and title
- Contact information
- Action buttons2. Import to Claude Code
Once you have the v0 component, bring it into your project:
Import this v0 component into our project:
[paste v0 component code]
Please:
1. Adapt it to our design system
2. Add TypeScript types
3. Integrate with our existing components
4. Add proper error handling3. Enhancement and Customization
Claude Code can enhance v0 components:
Enhance this v0 component by:
1. Adding accessibility features
2. Implementing responsive design
3. Adding animation and micro-interactions
4. Integrating with our state managementBest Practices
Component Structure
Before Enhancement:
// Basic v0 component
export default function UserCard() {
return (
<div className="p-4 border rounded">
{/* v0 generated content */}
</div>
)
}After Claude Code Enhancement:
// Enhanced with TypeScript and proper structure
interface UserCardProps {
user: User;
onEdit?: () => void;
onDelete?: () => void;
className?: string;
}
export const UserCard: React.FC<UserCardProps> = ({
user,
onEdit,
onDelete,
className
}) => {
// Enhanced implementation
