Shadcn is not a company, it's a person 😅

Just started using it because everyone said it was great, but now I know why. Thanks.

bro said " a company" it's one guy lol

In the Alert component sample: import * as React from "react"

Yeah i see... Another "lightweight" component system that depend on so many dependencies that a single Alert message doesn't appear on slow mobile networks.

I guess the main pain point is that when we make customisation to their components for example change the look and some functionality in the button then it will be very difficult to update it if they introduced some new features inside their button component

I love your contents. Please create introductory videos on other frameworks also like vue, svelte, solid, angular, flutter etc

I've been using ant design react recently, and I found it pretty useful since integration with other libraries such as form elements are easy, and even its own components are pretty much enough for middle size projects.

It's amazing can't wait to use it

[AR-yrov]

Love it, going to try it out in my next project

[drumncase]

Could you do a full video on this please?

[mickmister]

How does the updating work as you mention? Seems like we're duplicating code here instead of reusing some open source code that continue to be maintained externally

Aceternity UI is also good UI for react component.

I have given it a try, there are just few components with just few small functionalities… not at the same level as material ui

[lionheart]

I believe RadixUi already does this, while also emphasizing accessibility.

[Niksorus]

This is the best UI library indeed! For both React and Astro, ofc.

[mhemaungthuwin]

The most annoying thing for me is when using framework like Material UI, the DOM node in the inspect pane doesn't really exist in my codebase.

[mohammedanas]

This seems cool, but the eventually importing the whole library isnt necessarily a bad thing. there is a build step which does some magic for you

[nclsDesign]

Shadcn brought me to using Radix Primitives and they are awesome. But I also saw NextUI and it looks sick aswell. Gonna try that one in my next project.

[DaWizardOfOz]

You still have to download a bunch of dependencies to use their different components

[vaibhav_shanker]

shadcn is built upon radix

in order to start working with shadcn you get whole radix ui library in to your project

then you pick the shadcn components, which, again, built upon shadcn

BTW, love shadcn library, but part of the video says you install what you use is not that true while looking behind the scene
