Using shadcn/ui

Overview

shadcn/ui is a collection of re-usable, accessible React components built on Radix UI and Tailwind CSS. Unlike traditional component libraries, shadcn/ui copies components directly into your project, giving you full ownership and customization control.

Core principle: Components live in your codebase. You own the code. No package.json dependency.

When to Use

Use shadcn/ui when:

• Building React applications with Tailwind CSS
• Need accessible, customizable UI components
• Want pre-built patterns without library lock-in
• Implementing common UI patterns (forms, dialogs, dropdowns, etc.)
• Starting new projects that need design system foundation
• Need production-ready blocks for hero sections, pricing, testimonials, etc.

shadcnblocks.com integration:

• 829 blocks across 42 categories
• Production-ready sections (Hero, Navbar, Footer, Pricing, Testimonials, etc.)
• Copy-paste directly into your project
• Built with same shadcn/ui primitives

Don't use for:

• Non-React projects
• Projects without Tailwind CSS
• When you need a locked, versioned component library
• Simple HTML/CSS projects

Installation Workflow

Customization

Theme Colors

Edit app/globals.css or styles/globals.css:

@layer base {
  :root {
    --background: 0 0% 100%;
    --foreground: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
    --primary: 221.2 83.2% 53.3%;
    --primary-foreground: 210 40% 98%;
    /* ... more CSS variables */
  }

  .dark {
    --background: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
    --foreground: 210 40% 98%;
    /* ... dark mode colors */
  }
}

Component Variants

Components use class-variance-authority for variants:

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

// Available variants:
<Button variant="default">Default</Button>
<Button variant="destructive">Destructive</Button>
<Button variant="outline">Outline</Button>
<Button variant="secondary">Secondary</Button>
<Button variant="ghost">Ghost</Button>
<Button variant="link">Link</Button>

// Available sizes:
<Button size="default">Default</Button>
<Button size="sm">Small</Button>
<Button size="lg">Large</Button>
<Button size="icon">Icon</Button>

Extending Components

Edit the component file directly in components/ui/:

// components/ui/button.tsx
const buttonVariants = cva(
  "inline-flex items-center justify-center...",
  {
    variants: {
      variant: {
        default: "bg-primary text-primary-foreground...",
        destructive: "bg-destructive text-destructive-foreground...",
        // Add custom variant:
        success: "bg-green-600 text-white hover:bg-green-700",
      },
      // ... rest of variants
    }
  }
)

Common Patterns

Loading States

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import { Loader2 } from "lucide-react"

export function LoadingButton() {
  const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false)

  return (
    <Button disabled={isLoading}>
      {isLoading && <Loader2 className="mr-2 h-4 w-4 animate-spin" />}
      {isLoading ? "Loading..." : "Submit"}
    </Button>
  )
}

Toast Notifications

// Install: npx shadcn@latest add toast

import { useToast } from "@/hooks/use-toast"
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ToastExample() {
  const { toast } = useToast()

  return (
    <Button
      onClick={() => {
        toast({
          title: "Success!",
          description: "Your changes have been saved.",
        })
      }}
    >
      Show Toast
    </Button>
  )
}

Data Tables

// Install: npx shadcn@latest add table

import {
  Table,
  TableBody,
  TableCell,
  TableHead,
  TableHeader,
  TableRow,
} from "@/components/ui/table"

const invoices = [
  { invoice: "INV001", status: "Paid", amount: "$250.00" },
  { invoice: "INV002", status: "Pending", amount: "$150.00" },
]

export function InvoiceTable() {
  return (
    <Table>
      <TableHeader>
        <TableRow>
          <TableHead>Invoice</TableHead>
          <TableHead>Status</TableHead>
          <TableHead>Amount</TableHead>
        </TableRow>
      </TableHeader>
      <TableBody>
        {invoices.map((invoice) => (
          <TableRow key={invoice.invoice}>
            <TableCell>{invoice.invoice}</TableCell>
            <TableCell>{invoice.status}</TableCell>
            <TableCell>{invoice.amount}</TableCell>
          </TableRow>
        ))}
      </TableBody>
    </Table>
  )
}
