```

### 4. Loading Skeleton Screens
Skeleton loading states for improved perceived performance.

**Components:**

**Usage:**
```html
<!-- Skeleton text lines -->
<div class="skeleton skeleton-text"></div>
<div class="skeleton skeleton-text w-75"></div>
<div class="skeleton skeleton-text w-50"></div>

<!-- Skeleton card -->
<div class="skeleton-card">
<div class="skeleton-card-header">

## Design Philosophy

### Glassmorphism
All modals use a glassmorphism design with:
- Frosted glass blur effect
- Semi-transparent backgrounds
- Subtle borders and shadows
- Smooth animations

### Accessibility
- ARIA labels on all interactive elements
- Keyboard navigation support
- Focus management in modals
- Screen reader announcements
- High contrast mode support
- Reduced motion support for users who prefer it

### Responsive Design
- Mobile-first approach
- Touch-friendly on mobile devices
- Adaptive layouts for different screen sizes
- Graceful degradation on older browsers

### Performance
- CSS animations preferred over JavaScript
- Minimal DOM manipulation
- No external dependencies
- Lazy initialization

## Browser Support
- Chrome 90+
- Firefox 88+
- Safari 14+
- Edge 90+

## Integration Examples

### Show toast on successful form submission
```javascript
document.querySelector('form').addEventListener('submit', async (e) => {
e.preventDefault();

try {
await submitForm();
window.toastSystem.showToast({
type: 'success',
title: 'Form Submitted',
message: 'Your data has been saved successfully'
});
} catch (error) {
window.toastSystem.showToast({
type: 'error',
title: 'Submission Failed',
message: error.message
});
}
});
```

### Show skeleton while loading data
```html
<!-- Initially show skeleton -->
<div id="data-container" class="skeleton-grid">
<div class="skeleton-card">...</div>
<div class="skeleton-card">...</div>
</div>

<script>
async function loadData() {
const container = document.getElementById('data-container');

// Data loads...
const data = await fetchData();

// Replace skeleton with actual content
container.innerHTML = renderData(data);
}
</script>
```

### Custom command in command palette
```javascript
// Add a custom command to the palette
window.commandPalette.commands.push({
id: 'custom-action',
name: 'My Custom Action',
icon: '⚡',
category: 'Custom',
action: () => {
console.log('Custom action executed');
window.toastSystem.showToast({
type: 'success',
title: 'Custom Action',
message: 'Action completed'
});
},
keywords: ['custom', 'action', 'my']
});
```

## Theme Support
All features support both dark and light themes:
- Dark theme (default)
- Light theme (toggle with `Alt+T` or theme button)

Themes are persisted in `localStorage` and apply automatically on page load.

## Future Enhancements
Potential future improvements:
- Command palette command history
- Toast notification queue management
- More skeleton component variants
- Customizable keyboard shortcuts
- Command palette plugins/extensions
- Toast notification templates
