Introduction to Shadcn
Oksana / December 15, 2024
What is Shadcn?
Beautifully designed components that you can copy and paste into your apps. Accessible. Customizable. Open Source.
This is NOT a component library. It's a collection of re-usable components that you can copy and paste into your apps.
export default function Home() {
return <h1>Hello, NextJs!</h1>
}
What do you mean by not a component library?
I mean you do not install it as a dependency. It is not available or distributed via npm.
Pick the components you need. Copy and paste the code into your project and customize to your needs. The code is yours.
