🎯 Goal: Design and implement a mobile-first Leaderboard UI for a Sports Tournament feature in our iGaming platform. The UI must feel modern, intuitive, and engaging, while clearly presenting the player’s performance and the top competitors. all text in ui must be in spanish
📱 Context:
Tech stack: Next.js 14 App Router, Shadcn UI, TailwindCSS, Zustand for state, HeroUI as component inspiration
Primary audience is mobile users (90%+ usage); desktop experience is secondary
Player wants to feel progress, see how close they are to the prize, and know the rules
🧩 What the UI must include:
- 📊 Tournament Overview Section Tournament name, short description, and date range
Prizes and how many positions are rewarded
Points logic summary (e.g., "1 point for every $10 bet on football")
Countdown to tournament end
- 🧍♂️ My Stats Panel (Sticky or Prominent) Player rank (e.g., “You are #8”)
Current points
Total bets placed (count + amount)
Optional: Progress bar to next rank or reward tier
- 🥇 Leaderboard Table Rank, username (or partially anonymized), total points
Visual indicators for top 3 (e.g., medals or highlight)
"You" always visible in the list (even if not in top 20)
Pagination or infinite scroll if needed
- 🧠 UX Considerations Compact and scroll-friendly layout on mobile
Clear visual hierarchy: Your stats > Tournament info > Leaderboard
Fast loading and skeleton states
Sticky header for filters or tabs (e.g., All Players / Top 20 )
🛠️ Tech Request:
Use Tailwind with HeroUI component patterns
Implement as React Server Component with client hydration where needed
Code must be modular and maintainable (split into LeaderboardCard, TournamentStats, UserRow, etc.)
🧪 Bonus Output:
Provide placeholder loading states (e.g., skeleton UI)
Animate score changes or position jumps (e.g., using framer-motion)
Accessibility features (labels, keyboard nav)
I'll create a comprehensive mobile-first leaderboard UI for your sports tournament feature with all text in Spanish. Let me build this with modular components and modern UX patterns.
I've created a comprehensive mobile-first leaderboard UI for your sports tournament feature with all the requested components and Spanish text. Here are the key features implemented:
Key Features
Tournament Overview Section:
- Tournament name, description, and countdown timer
- Participant count and visual hierarchy
- Sticky header for easy navigation
My Stats Panel:
- Prominent user position display
- Current points, bets count, and total amount
- Progress bar to next rank with visual feedback
- Prize zone indicator
Leaderboard Table:
- Top 3 with special visual indicators (crown, medals)
- Current user always visible with highlighting
- Prize zone badges for positions 1-10
- Clean, scannable layout
UX Enhancements:
- Mobile-first responsive design
- Sticky user stats panel
- Loading skeleton states
- Expandable tournament details
- Visual hierarchy with proper spacing
️ Technical Implementation
- Modular Components: Split into reusable components for maintainability
- Server Components: Main page uses RSC with client hydration for interactive parts
- Accessibility: Proper ARIA labels, semantic HTML, keyboard navigation
- Performance: Optimized with proper loading states and efficient rendering
Design Highlights
- Visual Hierarchy: User stats → Tournament info → Leaderboard
- Mobile Optimization: Compact layout, touch-friendly interactions
- Spanish Localization: All UI text in Spanish as requested
- Modern Aesthetics: Gradient backgrounds, proper shadows, clean typography
UI 🧠 Goal: The current leaderboard UI looks clean and functional, but the color scheme and styling feel flat—like a corporate dashboard. I want to elevate it into a more immersive, video-game-inspired experience that fits an online sports betting tournament.
🎯 Think: a mix of dark theme, gradient overlays, and textured panels, similar to what you'd find in an esports lobby or mobile battle pass system.
✅ Re-theme Instructions:
🎨 Color & Background Switch to a dark base theme with deep purples, rich blues, or dark grays
Use vibrant accent gradients for key elements (e.g., rank badges, active tab, CTA buttons)
Add soft glow effects or neon borders around important UI blocks
Consider using glassmorphism or a subtle noise/texture layer behind panels
🧩 Layout & Section Styling Use card-style sections with depth (e.g., shadows, borders, light bevel)
Allow sections to feel “segmented” like UI blocks in a game HUD
Use parallax backgrounds or layered dividers to add motion and depth (especially on mobile)
🥇 Leaderboard Rows Each row should feel like a player card not just a table row
Add visual identity: background shading by rank tier, rank icon (gold/silver/bronze for top 3)
Include mini avatar or badge slot for players
🙋 My Stats Panel Make it highlighted as a primary focus area (different background or animation)
Animate rank changes subtly (e.g., slide in, sparkle effect if moved up)
🎯 Iconography & Typography Use gaming-style icons: controller buttons, flame for hot streaks, trophies, shields, etc.
Choose a bolder, slightly futuristic font for numbers and headers (while keeping body readable)
Style points as tokens, coins, or chips—not just flat numbers
🧪 Extras Optional animation using framer-motion (e.g., leaderboard slide in/out)
Add a small animated mascot or tournament “host” character if fitting
Theming should remain performant and accessible (use system theme when possible)
🛠️ Tech Stack Reminder:
Next.js 14 with App Router
TailwindCSS + HeroUI component logic
Zustand for state
Hosted on Vercel, mobile-first UX
🔄 Please rework the color palette, layout texture, and icon usage based on the above while keeping the current layout structure intact.
I'll transform your leaderboard UI into an immersive, video-game-inspired experience while maintaining the same layout structure. Let's create that dark, vibrant esports/battle pass aesthetic you're looking for!
Video Game-Inspired Transformation Complete!
I've completely transformed your leaderboard UI into an immersive, video game-inspired experience while maintaining the same layout structure. Here's what I've implemented:
Dark Theme & Visual Effects
- Rich Dark Base: Deep slate and indigo backgrounds with subtle texture overlays
- Vibrant Accents: Glowing elements with cyan, purple, and amber highlights
- Depth & Dimension: Shadow effects, border glows, and layered backgrounds
- Texture & Noise: Subtle pattern overlays (grid, hex, circuit, dots) for depth
- Glassmorphism: Semi-transparent card backgrounds with backdrop blur
Rank Visualization
- Glowing Icons: Crown, medal, and award icons with glow effects
- Tier-Based Styling: Different background gradients based on rank
- Visual Hierarchy: Special treatment for top 3 positions
- Player Highlighting: Prominent blue glow for the current user's position
Gaming UI Elements
- Custom Gaming Font: Added a gaming-style font for headings and numbers
- HUD-Like Sections: Card sections with top border accents and depth
- Points as Tokens: Points displayed with icon indicators
- Progress Bar: Glowing cyan-to-blue gradient progress indicator
Polished Details
- Icon Treatments: Icons with glow effects and vibrant colors
- Badge Styling: Themed badges with matching icons
- Loading States: Themed skeleton loaders that match the dark aesthetic
- Responsive Design: Maintained mobile-first approach with improved visual appeal
The UI now feels like something from an esports platform or battle pass system while maintaining all the functionality and information hierarchy of the original design.
ok thank now lets build on this. we now need an amazing tournament lobby, this should be optimised for mobile, ui/ux should feel gamified, each tournament card should give the needed info but also be engaging. I have attached a screenshot of what we do for our current casino tournament lobby, we is very basic, we should focus on giving a gaming like experience, just use that as guide for colours etc.. ask any clarifying questions if needed.
