# React Error Loading Empty States

## Use This Skill

Use this skill for design react loading, error, empty, and not-found states.

## Operating Contract

1. Inspect the existing project before changing code.
2. Identify the router/framework, entry files, styling system, and interaction system.
3. Keep premium visual standards active: no generic copy, no default-looking UI, no unfinished states.
4. Follow existing project conventions unless a change clearly improves the result.
5. Run available checks and visually inspect responsive output when the change affects UI.

## Required Reference

Read [references/react-error-loading-empty-states-guide.md](references/react-error-loading-empty-states-guide.md) before making architectural or visible UI changes with this skill.
