# Basic invocation bootspring agent invoke frontend-expert "Create a responsive sidebar"

Output:

Frontend Expert Response ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Summary ─────── Here's how to create a responsive sidebar with proper accessibility and mobile support. Implementation ────────────── Step 1: Create the Sidebar component ```tsx // components/Sidebar.tsx 'use client'; import { useState } from 'react'; import { cn } from '@/lib/utils'; interface SidebarProps { children: React.ReactNode; } export function Sidebar({ children }: SidebarProps) { const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false); return ( <> {/* Mobile toggle */} <button onClick={() => setIsOpen(!isOpen)} className="lg:hidden fixed top-4 left-4 z-50" aria-label="Toggle sidebar" > <MenuIcon /> </button> {/* Sidebar */} <aside className={cn( "fixed inset-y-0 left-0 z-40 w-64 bg-white border-r", "transform transition-transform duration-200 ease-in-out", "lg:translate-x-0", isOpen ? "translate-x-0" : "-translate-x-full" )} > {children} </aside> {/* Overlay */} {isOpen && ( <div className="fixed inset-0 bg-black/50 lg:hidden z-30" onClick={() => setIsOpen(false)} /> )} </> ); }

Considerations ────────────── • Accessibility: Include ARIA labels for toggle button • Performance: Use CSS transitions over JS animations • Mobile: Consider swipe gestures for touch devices
