What does the retro skill do?
Throwback design with vintage-inspired typography, high-contrast retro palettes, and nostalgic visual elements.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add bergside/awesome-design-skills --skill retro --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From bergside/awesome-design-skills, a repository with 2,169 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
