Empty state

An illustrated nothing-here-yet scene with an action.

An open box, floating specks and a magnifier drawn in SVG, with a headline, a sentence and a button that tells your page what to do. The art is decoration: the words carry the meaning.

<script>
  const element = document.querySelector("empty-state");
  element.addEventListener("empty-state:action", (event) => {

Build one with your agent

Paste this into your agent. It asks you before it signs in, pays or goes further than checking and publishing.

Build me a Taggor component like "Empty state" (empty-state): An illustrated nothing-here-yet scene with an action. Fetch https://taggor.dev/agent-setup/prompt.md and follow its instructions to set me up for Taggor. Ask me before you sign in, create an account, accept terms, pay for anything or type a secret. Check it with `taggor check` and publish it with `taggor publish`, and stop there. Do not promote it to production, attach it to a site, roll back anything or use --yes, --force or --force-drop-invalid unless I ask for exactly that in this conversation.
