Claude React Artifact Template

This template is specifically designed for hosting React Component Artifacts generated by Anthropic's Claude LLM. It provides a pre-configured environment with React and TailwindCSS to quickly deploy and test Claude-generated components.

Purpose

Claude is capable of generating sophisticated React components. This template makes it easy to:

1. Implement Claude-generated React components with minimal setup
2. Test and refine these components in a proper React environment
3. Share your Claude-generated artifacts with others

How to Use This Template

1. Ask Claude to generate a React component (e.g., "Make me a React component that shows the normal distribution with a slider that controls standard deviation")
2. Clone this repo
3. Replace the App.jsx with the contents of the generated Artifact

That's it! Your Claude-generated component will now be running in a proper React environment.

Features

• React 19
• TailwindCSS 3.4
• Modern JavaScript with ES6+ features

Tips for Working with Claude-Generated Components

1. Claude may generate components that require additional npm packages. Install these as needed.
2. If Claude generates a component with multiple files, place them in the appropriate locations in the src directory.
3. For complex components, ask Claude to break down the implementation into manageable steps.
