FAQPage Schema
How do I manage shadcn/ui components across different registries?

To add shadcn/ui components, you activate guided shadcn commands like init to bootstrap your project. This process integrates preset workflows and generates corresponding documentation and usage examples for the added components.

Can I switch presets in an existing shadcn/ui project?

Yes, you can switch presets in an existing shadcn/ui project. The workflow supports preset switching, allowing you to transition between different configurations while updating the project context and available component documentation accordingly.

What is the best way to access shadcn/ui component documentation and examples?

The best way to access shadcn/ui documentation is through a centralized project context system. It provides quick access to project configuration, available components, and usage examples in a single place, streamlining component lookup and implementation.

Do I need to run init before adding components to a shadcn/ui workflow?

Yes, running init is required before adding components to a shadcn/ui workflow. Initializing a new project with a shadcn preset bootstraps the necessary UI components and generates the foundational docs and examples needed for subsequent component management.

Why does my shadcn/ui preset workflow lack consistent usage examples?

A shadcn/ui preset workflow lacks consistent usage examples when project context is not properly organized. Applying guided activation and organizing components across registries ensures documentation, usage examples, and project configuration are consistently maintained.
