FAQPage Schema
How do I build accessible React components with shadcn-ui?

shadcn-ui provides pre-built, accessible React components powered by Radix UI primitives and styled with Tailwind CSS. Copy components into your project, customize styling, and leverage built-in ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation to ensure accessibility compliance without manual implementation.

Can I use shadcn-ui with Next.js, Vite, Remix, or Astro?

Yes, shadcn-ui works across Next.js, Vite, Remix, Astro, and similar React-based stacks. Components are framework-agnostic and integrate seamlessly with TypeScript projects using Tailwind CSS, adapting to your build tool and routing setup.

How do I add form validation and theming to shadcn-ui components?

shadcn-ui integrates with validation libraries like Zod and supports theme customization through Tailwind CSS configuration. Copy form components, wire validation logic, and override Tailwind classes to match your design system while maintaining accessibility.

What's the best way to create data tables and dialogs with shadcn-ui?

shadcn-ui includes pre-built table and dialog components built on Radix UI primitives. Select the appropriate component for your use case, install it into your project, and compose it with your data or content—no custom styling or accessibility work required.

Do I need to understand Radix UI and Tailwind CSS to use shadcn-ui effectively?

While shadcn-ui abstracts Radix UI and Tailwind CSS under the hood, basic familiarity with Tailwind CSS for styling and component composition is helpful. Radix knowledge is optional—shadcn-ui handles accessibility primitives automatically.

What are the limitations of using shadcn-ui for complex UI systems?

shadcn-ui excels for standard components and patterns but requires custom integration for highly specialized or domain-specific UI. Component theming is Tailwind-bound, and advanced Radix UI customizations may require forking or extending base components.
