Shadcn UI

Part of the Frontend Developer Roadmap.

Summary

A collection of copy-paste React components (built on Radix UI + Tailwind) that you own and customize directly in your codebase, rather than installing as a black-box package.

How to Learn This

  • 1Add a couple of shadcn/ui components to a Tailwind project and inspect the generated code.
  • 2Customize a component's styling directly, since you own the source.
  • 3Compare this 'copy the code in' model to traditional npm component libraries.
