FAQPage Schema
How do I add shadcn/ui components to an existing React and Tailwind project?▼

To add shadcn/ui components to a React and Tailwind project, use the shadcn CLI for automatic installation or manually integrate source files. The process includes verifying Tailwind configuration, path aliases, and installing Radix primitive peer dependencies.

What is the best way to customize shadcn/ui theme variables and component variants?▼

The best way to customize shadcn/ui components is by modifying theme variables and applying component composition patterns. This ensures your custom variants remain accessible and maintain TypeScript correctness while adhering to Tailwind configuration standards.

Does shadcn/ui work with Vite and Next.js for building authentication forms and data tables?▼

Yes, shadcn/ui works with both Vite and Next.js to build authentication forms, data tables with sorting, and dashboard layouts. It provides guidance for discovering blocks and ensuring correct path alias configuration across these platforms.

Why does my shadcn/ui setup fail TypeScript and accessibility validation checks?▼

shadcn/ui setup validation fails when Tailwind configuration or path aliases are incorrect. Running the included setup verification script confirms configuration, validates TypeScript types, and checks accessibility and responsive behavior to resolve errors.

Can I migrate my existing React component library to shadcn/ui without breaking my current workflow?▼

You can migrate existing React component libraries to shadcn/ui by replacing current components with Radix or Base UI primitives. The Skill provides integration guidance to manage source files and enforce accessibility and TypeScript correctness during migration.
