Migrating to Next.js with shadcn/ui involves analyzing your current codebase, planning component conversion, and systematically replacing components with shadcn/ui equivalents while maintaining design tokens and accessibility. This Skill automates that process with batch-based conversion, testing after each batch, and MCP-powered documentation to ensure strict shadcn/ui compliance and CSS variables-based theming throughout.

Yes. shadcn/ui is built on Tailwind CSS and works natively in Next.js applications. This Skill scaffolds new Next.js 15+ apps with App Router and Tailwind pre-configured, then guides you through setting up CSS variables for design tokens and ensuring mobile-first responsive layouts with full accessibility compliance.

A shadcn/ui design system requires CSS variables-based theming, strict component compliance without customization, design token setup, and accessibility enforcement. This Skill automates that foundation by generating templates with design tokens pre-configured, MCP integration for live documentation, and batch conversion workflows that maintain consistency across your entire codebase.

No. This Skill analyzes your existing React, Vue, Angular, or vanilla JavaScript frontend and creates a phased migration plan using batch-based component conversion. You migrate incrementally, testing after each batch, so you can keep your app running while gradually transitioning to Next.js and shadcn/ui.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration provides live documentation access during migration and development. This Skill uses MCP to deliver up-to-date shadcn/ui component references, Tailwind CSS patterns, and Next.js best practices in real time, ensuring your codebase stays aligned with current standards and accessibility requirements.

This Skill enforces mobile-first responsive layouts and accessibility compliance through shadcn/ui's built-in patterns and CSS variables-based theming. Batch-based conversion with testing ensures every converted component meets accessibility standards, and the automation prevents manual hardcoding that could bypass those safeguards.
