name: new-component description: Create new GPUI components. Use when building components, writing UI elements, or creating new component implementations.

Instructions

When creating new GPUI components:

1. Follow existing patterns: Base implementation on components in crates/ui/src (examples: Button, Select)
2. Style consistency: Follow existing component styles and Shadcn UI patterns
3. Component type decision:
   • Use stateless elements for simple components (like Button)
   • Use stateful elements for complex components with data (like Select and SelectState)
4. API consistency: Maintain the same API style as other elements
5. Documentation: Create component documentation
6. Stories: Write component stories in the story folder

Component Types

• Stateless: Pure presentation components without internal state
• Stateful: Components that manage their own state and data
