How do I build accessible UI components in React with Tailwind CSS?

shadcn/ui provides pre-built accessible UI components built on Radix primitives and styled with Tailwind CSS, ready to drop into React and Next.js projects. Components follow web accessibility standards out of the box, eliminating manual ARIA setup.

Can I use shadcn/ui components with Next.js and customize themes?

Yes. shadcn/ui integrates directly with Next.js and Tailwind. Install components via CLI, then customize themes by editing Tailwind configuration and component source files to match your design system.

How do I build complex forms with validation in shadcn/ui?

Combine shadcn/ui form components with React Hook Form for state management and Zod for schema validation. This stack handles form submission, error display, and field-level validation without manual wiring.
