Add Web Tanstackstart Kids Template

Archived: 2026-09-28 · roadmap-id: web-tanstackstart-template

Why

AgentDock needs a first-class web template for products built for children. The existing web-tanstackstart template is an enterprise application baseline; changing only its theme cannot deliver the required low cognitive load, age-sensitive interaction rules, multimodal feedback, content tone, safety boundaries, and emotional visual language.

animal-island-ui is useful as a design reference, not as the runtime foundation. Its current v2.0.0 is MIT, but its history includes a real Nintendo DMCA remediation, and its React package is a light-only, independent component system with global CSS, globally scoped cursor behavior, large font assets, limited SSR evidence, and a component model that would conflict with Astryx. The template should preserve Astryx as the component and interaction kernel while independently designing a child experience layer.

Capabilities

New Capabilities

• web-tanstackstart-kids-experience: Defines the child experience model, visual language, age profiles, interaction and content policies, safety/accessibility constraints, and Astryx integration contract.
• web-tanstackstart-kids-template: Defines the standalone child-oriented template package, its information architecture, theme and experience wiring, components, documentation, CLI registration, and verification.

Modified Capabilities

No existing capability requirements are modified. This introduces a dedicated child template instead of changing the existing enterprise template's requirements.

Non-goals

• Pixel-for-pixel reproduction of animal-island-ui, Animal Crossing, or any third-party game interface.
• Importing, vendoring, or depending on animal-island-ui, naive-icons, or its historical assets as part of the template runtime.
• Forking, swizzling, or modifying Astryx core components or accessibility behavior.
• Implementing child accounts, parental consent, backend profile storage, content moderation, payments, advertising, or analytics in this change.
• Providing medical, developmental, educational, or legal certification for a particular age range.
• Replacing or redefining the existing enterprise web-tanstackstart template.
