description: Manages shadcn-vue components and projects — adding, searching, fixing, debugging, styling, and composing UI. Provides project context, component docs, and usage examples. Applies when working with shadcn-vue, component registries, presets, --preset codes, or any project with a components.json file. Also triggers for "shadcn-vue init", "create an app with --preset", or "switch to --preset".

# shadcn-vue
|
||||
|
||||
A framework for building ui, components and design systems. Components are added as source code to the user's project via the CLI.
|
||||
|
||||
> **IMPORTANT:** Run all CLI commands using the project's package runner: `npx shadcn-vue@latest`, `pnpm dlx shadcn-vue@latest`, or `bunx --bun shadcn-vue@latest` — based on the project's `packageManager`. Examples below use `npx shadcn-vue@latest` but substitute the correct runner for the project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Project Context
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
!`npx shadcn-vue@latest info --json`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The JSON above contains the project config and installed components. Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest docs <component>` to get documentation and example URLs for any component.
|
||||
|
||||
## Principles
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Use existing components first.** Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest search` to check registries before writing custom UI. Check community registries too.
|
||||
2. **Compose, don't reinvent.** Settings page = Tabs + Card + form controls. Dashboard = Sidebar + Card + Chart + Table.
|
||||
3. **Use built-in variants before custom styles.** `variant="outline"`, `size="sm"`, etc.
|
||||
4. **Use semantic colors.** `bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground` — never raw values like `bg-blue-500`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Rules
|
||||
|
||||
These rules are **always enforced**. Each links to a file with Incorrect/Correct code pairs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Styling & Tailwind → [styling.md](./rules/styling.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`class` for layout, not styling.** Never override component colors or typography.
|
||||
- **No `space-x-*` or `space-y-*`.** Use `flex` with `gap-*`. For vertical stacks, `flex flex-col gap-*`.
|
||||
- **Use `size-*` when width and height are equal.** `size-10` not `w-10 h-10`.
|
||||
- **Use `truncate` shorthand.** Not `overflow-hidden text-ellipsis whitespace-nowrap`.
|
||||
- **No manual `dark:` color overrides.** Use semantic tokens (`bg-background`, `text-muted-foreground`).
|
||||
- **Use `cn()` for conditional classes.** Don't write manual template literal ternaries.
|
||||
- **No manual `z-index` on overlay components.** Dialog, Sheet, Popover, etc. handle their own stacking.
|
||||
|
||||
### Forms & Inputs → [forms.md](./rules/forms.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Forms use `FieldGroup` + `Field`.** Never use raw `div` with `space-y-*` or `grid gap-*` for form layout.
|
||||
- **`InputGroup` uses `InputGroupInput`/`InputGroupTextarea`.** Never raw `Input`/`Textarea` inside `InputGroup`.
|
||||
- **Buttons inside inputs use `InputGroup` + `InputGroupAddon`.**
|
||||
- **Option sets (2–7 choices) use `ToggleGroup`.** Don't loop `Button` with manual active state.
|
||||
- **`FieldSet` + `FieldLegend` for grouping related checkboxes/radios.** Don't use a `div` with a heading.
|
||||
- **Field validation uses `data-invalid` + `aria-invalid`.** `data-invalid` on `Field`, `aria-invalid` on the control. For disabled: `data-disabled` on `Field`, `disabled` on the control.
|
||||
|
||||
### Component Structure → [composition.md](./rules/composition.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Items always inside their Group.** `SelectItem` → `SelectGroup`. `DropdownMenuItem` → `DropdownMenuGroup`. `CommandItem` → `CommandGroup`.
|
||||
- **Dialog, Sheet, and Drawer always need a Title.** `DialogTitle`, `SheetTitle`, `DrawerTitle` required for accessibility. Use `class="sr-only"` if visually hidden.
|
||||
- **Use full Card composition.** `CardHeader`/`CardTitle`/`CardDescription`/`CardContent`/`CardFooter`. Don't dump everything in `CardContent`.
|
||||
- **Button has no `isPending`/`isLoading`.** Compose with `Spinner` + `data-icon` + `disabled`.
|
||||
- **`TabsTrigger` must be inside `TabsList`.** Never render triggers directly in `Tabs`.
|
||||
- **`Avatar` always needs `AvatarFallback`.** For when the image fails to load.
|
||||
|
||||
### Use Components, Not Custom Markup → [composition.md](./rules/composition.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Use existing components before custom markup.** Check if a component exists before writing a styled `div`.
|
||||
- **Callouts use `Alert`.** Don't build custom styled divs.
|
||||
- **Empty states use `Empty`.** Don't build custom empty state markup.
|
||||
- **Toast via `vue-sonner`.** Use `toast()` from `vue-sonner`.
|
||||
- **Use `Separator`** instead of `<hr>` or `<div class="border-t">`.
|
||||
- **Use `Skeleton`** for loading placeholders. No custom `animate-pulse` divs.
|
||||
- **Use `Badge`** instead of custom styled spans.
|
||||
|
||||
### Icons → [icons.md](./rules/icons.md)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Icons in `Button` use `data-icon`.** `data-icon="inline-start"` or `data-icon="inline-end"` on the icon.
|
||||
- **No sizing classes on icons inside components.** Components handle icon sizing via CSS. No `size-4` or `w-4 h-4`.
|
||||
- **Pass icons as objects, not string keys.** `:icon="CheckIcon"`, not a string lookup.
|
||||
|
||||
### CLI
|
||||
|
||||
- **Apply preset codes directly with the CLI.** Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest apply <code>` for existing projects, or `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code>` when initializing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
These are the most common patterns that differentiate correct shadcn-vue code. For edge cases, see the linked rule files above.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Form layout: FieldGroup + Field, not div + Label. -->
|
||||
<FieldGroup>
|
||||
<Field>
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="email">Email</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input id="email" />
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
</FieldGroup>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Validation: data-invalid on Field, aria-invalid on the control. -->
|
||||
<Field data-invalid>
|
||||
<FieldLabel>Email</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input aria-invalid />
|
||||
<FieldDescription>Invalid email.</FieldDescription>
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Icons in buttons: data-icon, no sizing classes. -->
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
<SearchIcon data-icon="inline-start" />
|
||||
Search
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Spacing: gap-*, not space-y-*. -->
|
||||
<div class="flex flex-col gap-4"> <!-- correct -->
|
||||
<div class="space-y-4"> <!-- wrong -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Equal dimensions: size-*, not w-* h-*. -->
|
||||
<Avatar class="size-10"> <!-- correct -->
|
||||
<Avatar class="w-10 h-10"> <!-- wrong -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Status colors: Badge variants or semantic tokens, not raw colors. -->
|
||||
<Badge variant="secondary">+20.1%</Badge> <!-- correct -->
|
||||
<span class="text-emerald-600">+20.1%</span> <!-- wrong -->
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Selection
|
||||
|
||||
| Need | Use |
|
||||
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Button/action | `Button` with appropriate variant |
|
||||
| Form inputs | `Input`, `Select`, `Combobox`, `Switch`, `Checkbox`, `RadioGroup`, `Textarea`, `InputOTP`, `Slider` |
|
||||
| Toggle between 2–7 options | `ToggleGroup` + `ToggleGroupItem` |
|
||||
| Data display | `Table`, `Card`, `Badge`, `Avatar` |
|
||||
| Navigation | `Sidebar`, `NavigationMenu`, `Breadcrumb`, `Tabs`, `Pagination` |
|
||||
| Overlays | `Dialog` (modal), `Sheet` (side panel), `Drawer` (bottom sheet), `AlertDialog` (confirmation) |
|
||||
| Feedback | `vue-sonner` (toast), `Alert`, `Progress`, `Skeleton`, `Spinner` |
|
||||
| Command palette | `Command` inside `Dialog` |
|
||||
| Charts | `Chart` (wraps Unovis) |
|
||||
| Layout | `Card`, `Separator`, `Resizable`, `ScrollArea`, `Accordion`, `Collapsible` |
|
||||
| Empty states | `Empty` |
|
||||
| Menus | `DropdownMenu`, `ContextMenu`, `Menubar` |
|
||||
| Tooltips/info | `Tooltip`, `HoverCard`, `Popover` |
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Fields
|
||||
|
||||
The injected project context contains these key fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`aliases`** → use the actual alias prefix for imports (e.g. `@/`, `~/`), never hardcode.
|
||||
- **`tailwindVersion`** → `"v4"` uses `@theme inline` blocks; `"v3"` uses `tailwind.config.js`.
|
||||
- **`tailwindCssFile`** → the global CSS file where custom CSS variables are defined. Always edit this file, never create a new one.
|
||||
- **`style`** → component visual treatment (e.g. `nova`, `vega`).
|
||||
- **`base`** → primitive library (`reka`). Affects component APIs and available props.
|
||||
- **`iconLibrary`** → determines icon imports. Use `@lucide/vue` for `lucide`, `@tabler/icons-vue` for `tabler`, etc. Never assume `@lucide/vue`.
|
||||
- **`resolvedPaths`** → exact file-system destinations for components, utils, hooks, etc.
|
||||
- **`framework`** → routing and file conventions (e.g. Nuxt vs Vite SPA).
|
||||
- **`packageManager`** → use this for any non-shadcn-vue dependency installs (e.g. `pnpm add date-fns` vs `npm install date-fns`).
|
||||
|
||||
See [cli.md — `info` command](./cli.md) for the full field reference.
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Docs, Examples, and Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Run `npx shadcn-vue@latest docs <component>` to get the URLs for a component's documentation, examples, and API reference. Fetch these URLs to get the actual content.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest docs button dialog select
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**When creating, fixing, debugging, or using a component, always run `npx shadcn-vue@latest docs` and fetch the URLs first.** This ensures you're working with the correct API and usage patterns rather than guessing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Get project context** — already injected above. Run `npx shadcn-vue@latest info` again if you need to refresh.
|
||||
2. **Check installed components first** — before running `add`, always check the `components` list from project context or list the `resolvedPaths.ui` directory. Don't import components that haven't been added, and don't re-add ones already installed.
|
||||
3. **Find components** — `npx shadcn-vue@latest search`.
|
||||
4. **Get docs and examples** — run `npx shadcn-vue@latest docs <component>` to get URLs, then fetch them. Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest view` to browse registry items you haven't installed. To preview changes to installed components, use `npx shadcn-vue@latest add --diff`.
|
||||
5. **Install or update** — `npx shadcn-vue@latest add`. When updating existing components, use `--dry-run` and `--diff` to preview changes first (see [Updating Components](#updating-components) below).
|
||||
6. **Fix imports in third-party components** — After adding components from community registries, check the added non-UI files for hardcoded import paths like `@/components/ui/...`. These won't match the project's actual aliases. Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest info` to get the correct `ui` alias (e.g. `@workspace/ui/components`) and rewrite the imports accordingly. The CLI rewrites imports for its own UI files, but third-party registry components may use default paths that don't match the project.
|
||||
7. **Review added components** — After adding a component or block from any registry, **always read the added files and verify they are correct**. Check for missing sub-components (e.g. `SelectItem` without `SelectGroup`), missing imports, incorrect composition, or violations of the [Critical Rules](#critical-rules). Also replace any icon imports with the project's `iconLibrary` from the project context (e.g. if the registry item uses `@lucide/vue` but the project uses `hugeicons`, swap the imports and icon names accordingly). Fix all issues before moving on.
|
||||
8. **Registry must be explicit** — When the user asks to add a block or component, **do not guess the registry**. If no registry is specified (e.g. user says "add a login block" without specifying `@shadcn`, etc.), ask which registry to use. Never default to a registry on behalf of the user.
|
||||
9. **Switching presets** — Ask the user first: **overwrite**, **merge**, or **skip**?
|
||||
- **Overwrite**: `npx shadcn-vue@latest apply <code>`. Overwrites detected components, fonts, and CSS variables.
|
||||
- **Merge**: `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code> --force --no-reinstall`, then run `npx shadcn-vue@latest info` to list installed components, then for each installed component use `--dry-run` and `--diff` to [smart merge](#updating-components) it individually.
|
||||
- **Skip**: `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code> --force --no-reinstall`. Only updates config and CSS, leaves components as-is.
|
||||
- **Important**: Always run preset commands inside the user's project directory. `apply` only works in an existing project with a `components.json` file. The CLI automatically preserves the current base (`reka`) from `components.json`. If you must use a scratch/temp directory (e.g. for `--dry-run` comparisons), pass `--base <current-base>` explicitly — preset codes do not encode the base.
|
||||
|
||||
## Updating Components
|
||||
|
||||
When the user asks to update a component from upstream while keeping their local changes, use `--dry-run` and `--diff` to intelligently merge. **NEVER fetch raw files from GitHub manually — always use the CLI.**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `npx shadcn-vue@latest add <component> --dry-run` to see all files that would be affected.
|
||||
2. For each file, run `npx shadcn-vue@latest add <component> --diff <file>` to see what changed upstream vs local.
|
||||
3. Decide per file based on the diff:
|
||||
- No local changes → safe to overwrite.
|
||||
- Has local changes → read the local file, analyze the diff, and apply upstream updates while preserving local modifications.
|
||||
- User says "just update everything" → use `--overwrite`, but confirm first.
|
||||
4. **Never use `--overwrite` without the user's explicit approval.**
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Named presets:** `nova`, `vega`, `maia`, `lyra`, `mira`, `luma`
|
||||
**Templates:** `nuxt`, `vite`, `astro` and `laravel`

# shadcn-vue CLI Reference
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration is read from `components.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
> **IMPORTANT:** Always run commands using the project's package runner: `npx shadcn-vue@latest`, `pnpm dlx shadcn-vue@latest`, or `bunx --bun shadcn-vue@latest`. Check `packageManager` from project context to choose the right one. Examples below use `npx shadcn-vue@latest` but substitute the correct runner for the project.
|
||||
> **IMPORTANT:** Only use the flags documented below. Do not invent or guess flags — if a flag isn't listed here, it doesn't exist. The CLI auto-detects the package manager from the project's lockfile; there is no `--package-manager` flag.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Commands
|
||||
|
||||
### `init` — Initialize or create a project
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest init [components...] [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Initializes shadcn-vue in an existing project or creates a new project (when `--name` is provided). Optionally installs components in the same step.
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Short | Description | Default |
|
||||
| ----------------------- | ----- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
|
||||
| `--template <template>` | `-t` | Template (nuxt, vite, astro, laravel) | — |
|
||||
| `--preset [name]` | `-p` | Preset configuration (named, code, or URL) | — |
|
||||
| `--yes` | `-y` | Skip confirmation prompt | `true` |
|
||||
| `--defaults` | `-d` | Use defaults (`--template=nuxt --preset=nova`) | `false` |
|
||||
| `--force` | `-f` | Force overwrite existing configuration | `false` |
|
||||
| `--cwd <cwd>` | `-c` | Working directory | current |
|
||||

| `--silent` | `-s` | Mute output | `false` |
|
||||
| `--rtl` | | Enable RTL support | — |
|
||||
| `--reinstall` | | Re-install existing UI components | `false` |
|
||||
|
||||
`npx shadcn-vue@latest create` is an alias for `npx shadcn-vue@latest init`.
|
||||
|
||||
### `apply` — Apply a preset to an existing project
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest apply [preset] [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Applies a preset to an existing project, overwriting preset-driven config, fonts, CSS variables, and detected UI components.

If no preset is provided, the CLI offers to open the custom preset builder on `shadcn-vue.com/create`.
|
||||
|
||||
### `add` — Add components
|
||||
|
||||
> **IMPORTANT:** NEVER fetch raw files from GitHub or other sources manually. The CLI handles registry resolution, file paths, and CSS diffing automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest add [components...] [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Accepts component names, registry-prefixed names (`@magicui/shimmer-button`), URLs, or local paths.
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Short | Description | Default |
|
||||
| --------------- | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |

|
||||
|
||||
#### Smart Merge from Upstream

|
||||
|
||||
### `search` — Search registries
|
||||

||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest search <registries...> [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Fuzzy search across registries. Also aliased as `npx shadcn-vue@latest list`. Without `-q`, lists all items.
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Short | Description | Default |
|
||||
| ------------------- | ----- | ---------------------- | ------- |
|
||||

||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest view <items...> [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Displays item info including file contents. Example: `npx shadcn-vue@latest view @shadcn/button`.
|
||||
|
||||
### `docs` — Get component documentation URLs
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest docs <components...> [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Outputs resolved URLs for component documentation, examples, and API references. Accepts one or more component names. Fetch the URLs to get the actual content.
|
||||

## Presets
|
||||
|
||||
Three ways to specify a preset via `--preset`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Named:** `--preset nova` or `--preset lyra`
|
||||
2. **Code:** `--preset a2r6bw` (version-prefixed base62 string, e.g. `a2r6bw`)
|
||||
3. **URL:** `--preset "https://shadcn-vue.com/init?base=reka&style=nova&..."`
|
||||
|
||||
> **IMPORTANT:** Never try to decode, fetch, or resolve preset codes manually. Preset codes are opaque — pass them directly to `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code>` and let the CLI handle resolution.
|
||||
> Use `npx shadcn-vue@latest apply --preset <code>` when overwriting an existing project's preset.
|
||||
|
||||
## Switching Presets
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the user first: **overwrite**, **merge**, or **skip** existing components?
|
||||
|
||||
- **Overwrite / Re-install** → `npx shadcn-vue@latest apply --preset <code>`. Overwrites all detected component files with the new preset styles. Use when the user hasn't customized components.
|
||||
- **Merge** → `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code> --force --no-reinstall`, then run `npx shadcn-vue@latest info` to get the list of installed components and use the [smart merge workflow](./SKILL.md#updating-components) to update them one by one, preserving local changes. Use when the user has customized components.
|
||||
- **Skip** → `npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset <code> --force --no-reinstall`. Only updates config and CSS variables, leaves existing components as-is.
|
||||
|
||||
Always run preset commands inside the user's project directory. `apply` only works in an existing project with a `components.json` file. The CLI automatically preserves the current base (`base`) from `components.json`. If you must use a scratch/temp directory (e.g. for `--dry-run` comparisons), pass `--base <current-base>` explicitly — preset codes do not encode the base.

# Customization & Theming
|
||||
|
||||
Components reference semantic CSS variable tokens. Change the variables to change every component.

||||
|
||||

||||
- How it works (CSS variables → Tailwind utilities → components)
|
||||
- Color variables and OKLCH format
|
||||
- Dark mode setup
|

|
||||
- Checking for updates
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
1. CSS variables defined in `:root` (light) and `.dark` (dark mode).
|
||||
2. Tailwind maps them to utilities: `bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`, etc.
|
||||
3. Components use these utilities — changing a variable changes all components that reference it.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Color Variables
|
||||
|
||||
Every color follows the `name` / `name-foreground` convention. The base variable is for backgrounds, `-foreground` is for text/icons on that background.
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Purpose |
|
||||
| -------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `--background` / `--foreground` | Page background and default text |
|
||||
| `--card` / `--card-foreground` | Card surfaces |
|
||||
| `--primary` / `--primary-foreground` | Primary buttons and actions |
|
||||
| `--secondary` / `--secondary-foreground` | Secondary actions |
|
||||
| `--muted` / `--muted-foreground` | Muted/disabled states |
|
||||
| `--accent` / `--accent-foreground` | Hover and accent states |
|
||||
| `--destructive` / `--destructive-foreground` | Error and destructive actions |
|
||||
| `--border` | Default border color |
|
||||
| `--input` | Form input borders |
|
||||
| `--ring` | Focus ring color |
|
||||
| `--chart-1` through `--chart-5` | Chart/data visualization |
|
||||
| `--sidebar-*` | Sidebar-specific colors |
|
||||
| `--surface` / `--surface-foreground` | Secondary surface |
|
||||
|
||||
Colors use OKLCH: `--primary: oklch(0.205 0 0)` where values are lightness (0–1), chroma (0 = gray), and hue (0–360).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Dark Mode
|
||||
|
||||
Class-based toggle via `.dark` on the root element. In Nuxt, use `@nuxtjs/color-mode`:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<!-- nuxt.config.ts -->
|
||||
export default defineNuxtConfig({
|
||||
modules: ['@nuxtjs/color-mode'],
|
||||
colorMode: {
|
||||
classSuffix: ''
|
||||
}
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Changing the Theme
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Apply a preset code from shadcn-vue.com.
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest apply --preset a2r6bw
|
||||
|
||||
# Positional shorthand also works.
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest apply a2r6bw
|
||||
|
||||
# Switch to a named preset and overwrite existing components.
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest apply --preset nova
|
||||
|
||||
# Preserve existing components instead.
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest init --preset nova --force --no-reinstall
|
||||
|
||||
# Use a custom theme URL.
|
||||
npx shadcn-vue@latest apply --preset "https://shadcn-vue.com/init?base=reka&style=nova&..."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or edit CSS variables directly in `globals.css`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding Custom Colors
|
||||
|
||||
Add variables to the file at `tailwindCssFile` from `npx shadcn-vue@latest info` (typically `globals.css`). Never create a new CSS file for this.
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
/* 1. Define in the global CSS file. */
|
||||
:root {
|
||||
--warning: oklch(0.84 0.16 84);
|
||||
--warning-foreground: oklch(0.28 0.07 46);
|
||||
}
|
||||
.dark {
|
||||
--warning: oklch(0.41 0.11 46);
|
||||
--warning-foreground: oklch(0.99 0.02 95);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
/* 2a. Register with Tailwind v4 (@theme inline). */
|
||||
@theme inline {
|
||||
--color-warning: var(--warning);
|
||||
--color-warning-foreground: var(--warning-foreground);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When `tailwindVersion` is `"v3"` (check via `npx shadcn-vue@latest info`), register in `tailwind.config.js` instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// 2b. Register with Tailwind v3 (tailwind.config.js).
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
theme: {
|
||||
extend: {
|
||||
colors: {
|
||||
warning: "oklch(var(--warning) / <alpha-value>)",
|
||||
"warning-foreground":
|
||||
"oklch(var(--warning-foreground) / <alpha-value>)",
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- 3. Use in components. -->
|
||||
<div class="bg-warning text-warning-foreground">Warning</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Border Radius
|
||||
|
||||
`--radius` controls border radius globally. Components derive values from it (`rounded-lg` = `var(--radius)`, `rounded-md` = `calc(var(--radius) - 2px)`).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing Components
|
||||
|
||||
See also: [rules/styling.md](./rules/styling.md) for Incorrect/Correct examples.
|
||||
|
||||
Prefer these approaches in order:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Built-in variants
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button variant="outline" size="sm">
|
||||
Click
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Tailwind classes via `class`
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Card class="mx-auto max-w-md">...</Card>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Add a new variant
|
||||
|
||||
Edit the component source to add a variant via `cva`:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// components/ui/Button.vue (or similar)
|
||||
warning: "bg-warning text-warning-foreground hover:bg-warning/90",
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Wrapper components
|
||||
|
||||
Compose shadcn-vue primitives into higher-level components:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
defineProps<{
|
||||
title: string
|
||||
description: string
|
||||
}>()
|
||||
|
||||
const emit = defineEmits(['confirm'])
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
|
||||
<template>
|
||||
<AlertDialog>
|
||||
<AlertDialogTrigger as-child>
|
||||
<slot />
|
||||
</AlertDialogTrigger>
|
||||
<AlertDialogContent>
|
||||
<AlertDialogHeader>
|
||||
<AlertDialogTitle>{{ title }}</AlertDialogTitle>
|
||||
<AlertDialogDescription>{{ description }}</AlertDialogDescription>
|
||||
</AlertDialogHeader>
|
||||
<AlertDialogFooter>
|
||||
<AlertDialogCancel>Cancel</AlertDialogCancel>
|
||||
<AlertDialogAction @click="emit('confirm')">Confirm</AlertDialogAction>
|
||||
</AlertDialogFooter>
|
||||
</AlertDialogContent>
|
||||
</AlertDialog>
|
||||
</template>

# shadcn MCP Server
|
||||
|
||||
The CLI includes an MCP server that lets AI assistants search, browse, view, and install components from registries.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
shadcn-vue mcp # start the MCP server (stdio)
|
||||
shadcn-vue mcp init # write config for your editor
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Editor config files:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Tools
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Configuring Registries
|
||||
|
||||
Registries are set in `components.json`. The `@shadcn` registry is always built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"registries": {
|
||||
"@acme": "https://acme.com/r/{name}.json",
|
||||
"@private": {
|
||||
"url": "https://private.com/r/{name}.json",
|
||||
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${MY_TOKEN}" }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Names must start with `@`.
|
||||
- URLs must contain `{name}`.
|
||||
- `${VAR}` references are resolved from environment variables.

# Component Composition
|
||||
|
||||
## Contents
|
||||
|
||||
- Items always inside their Group component
|
||||
- Callouts use Alert
|
||||
- Empty states use Empty component
|
||||
- Toast notifications use vue-sonner
|
||||
- Choosing between overlay components
|
||||
- Dialog, Sheet, and Drawer always need a Title
|
||||
- Card structure
|
||||
- Button has no isPending or isLoading prop
|
||||
- TabsTrigger must be inside TabsList
|
||||
- Avatar always needs AvatarFallback
|
||||
- Use Separator instead of raw hr or border divs
|
||||
- Use Skeleton for loading placeholders
|
||||
- Use Badge instead of custom styled spans
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Items always inside their Group component
|
||||
|
||||
Never render items directly inside the content container.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<SelectContent>
|
||||
<SelectItem value="apple">Apple</SelectItem>
|
||||
<SelectItem value="banana">Banana</SelectItem>
|
||||
</SelectContent>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<SelectContent>
|
||||
<SelectGroup>
|
||||
<SelectItem value="apple">Apple</SelectItem>
|
||||
<SelectItem value="banana">Banana</SelectItem>
|
||||
</SelectGroup>
|
||||
</SelectContent>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This applies to all group-based components:
|
||||
|
||||
| Item | Group |
|
||||
|------|-------|
|
||||
| `SelectItem`, `SelectLabel` | `SelectGroup` |
|
||||
| `DropdownMenuItem`, `DropdownMenuLabel`, `DropdownMenuSub` | `DropdownMenuGroup` |
|
||||
| `MenubarItem` | `MenubarGroup` |
|
||||
| `ContextMenuItem` | `ContextMenuGroup` |
|
||||
| `CommandItem` | `CommandGroup` |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Callouts use Alert
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Alert>
|
||||
<AlertTitle>Warning</AlertTitle>
|
||||
<AlertDescription>Something needs attention.</AlertDescription>
|
||||
</Alert>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Empty states use Empty component
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Empty>
|
||||
<EmptyHeader>
|
||||
<EmptyMedia variant="icon"><FolderIcon /></EmptyMedia>
|
||||
<EmptyTitle>No projects yet</EmptyTitle>
|
||||
<EmptyDescription>Get started by creating a new project.</EmptyDescription>
|
||||
</EmptyHeader>
|
||||
<EmptyContent>
|
||||
<Button>Create Project</Button>
|
||||
</EmptyContent>
|
||||
</Empty>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Toast notifications use vue-sonner
|
||||
|
||||
```js

## Choosing between overlay components
|
||||
|
||||
| Use case | Component |
|
||||
|----------|-----------|
|
||||
| Focused task that requires input | `Dialog` |
|
||||
| Destructive action confirmation | `AlertDialog` |
|
||||
| Side panel with details or filters | `Sheet` |
|
||||
| Mobile-first bottom panel | `Drawer` |
|
||||
| Quick info on hover | `HoverCard` |
|
||||
| Small contextual content on click | `Popover` |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Dialog, Sheet, and Drawer always need a Title
|
||||
|
||||
`DialogTitle`, `SheetTitle`, `DrawerTitle` are required for accessibility. Use `class="sr-only"` if visually hidden.
|
||||
|
||||
```vue
|
||||
<DialogContent>
|
||||
<DialogHeader>
|
||||
<DialogTitle>Edit Profile</DialogTitle>
|
||||
<DialogDescription>Update your profile.</DialogDescription>
|
||||
</DialogHeader>
|
||||
...
|
||||
</DialogContent>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Card structure
|
||||
|
||||
Use full composition — don't dump everything into `CardContent`:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Card>
|
||||
<CardHeader>
|
||||
<CardTitle>Team Members</CardTitle>
|
||||
<CardDescription>Manage your team.</CardDescription>
|
||||
</CardHeader>
|
||||
<CardContent>...</CardContent>
|
||||
<CardFooter>
|
||||
<Button>Invite</Button>
|
||||
</CardFooter>
|
||||
</Card>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Button has no isPending or isLoading prop
|
||||
|
||||
Compose with `Spinner` + `data-icon` + `disabled`:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button disabled>
|
||||
<Spinner data-icon="inline-start" />
|
||||
Saving...
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## TabsTrigger must be inside TabsList
|
||||
|
||||
Never render `TabsTrigger` directly inside `Tabs` — always wrap in `TabsList`:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Tabs default-value="account">
|
||||
<TabsList>
|
||||
<TabsTrigger value="account">Account</TabsTrigger>
|
||||
<TabsTrigger value="password">Password</TabsTrigger>
|
||||
</TabsList>
|
||||
<TabsContent value="account">...</TabsContent>
|
||||
</Tabs>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Avatar always needs AvatarFallback
|
||||
|
||||
Always include `AvatarFallback` for when the image fails to load:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Avatar>
|
||||
<AvatarImage src="/avatar.png" alt="User" />
|
||||
<AvatarFallback>JD</AvatarFallback>
|
||||
</Avatar>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Use existing components instead of custom markup
|
||||
|
||||
| Instead of | Use |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| `<hr>` or `<div class="border-t">` | `<Separator />` |
|
||||
| `<div class="animate-pulse">` with styled divs | `<Skeleton class="h-4 w-3/4" />` |

# Forms & Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
## Contents
|
||||
|
||||
- Forms use FieldGroup + Field
|
||||
- InputGroup requires InputGroupInput/InputGroupTextarea
|
||||
- Buttons inside inputs use InputGroup + InputGroupAddon
|
||||
- Option sets (2–7 choices) use ToggleGroup
|
||||
- FieldSet + FieldLegend for grouping related fields
|
||||
- Field validation and disabled states
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Forms use FieldGroup + Field
|
||||
|
||||
Always use `FieldGroup` + `Field` — never raw `div` with `space-y-*`:
|
||||
|
||||
```vue
|
||||
<FieldGroup>
|
||||
<Field>
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="email">Email</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input id="email" type="email" />
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
<Field>
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="password">Password</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input id="password" type="password" />
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
</FieldGroup>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use `Field orientation="horizontal"` for settings pages. Use `FieldLabel class="sr-only"` for visually hidden labels.
|
||||
|
||||
**Choosing form controls:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Simple text input → `Input`
|
||||
- Dropdown with predefined options → `Select`
|
||||
- Searchable dropdown → `Combobox`
|
||||
- Native HTML select (no JS) → `native-select`
|
||||
- Boolean toggle → `Switch` (for settings) or `Checkbox` (for forms)
|
||||
- Single choice from few options → `RadioGroup`
|
||||
- Toggle between 2–7 options → `ToggleGroup` + `ToggleGroupItem`
|
||||
- OTP/verification code → `InputOTP`
|
||||
- Multi-line text → `Textarea`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## InputGroup requires InputGroupInput/InputGroupTextarea
|
||||
|
||||
Never use raw `Input` or `Textarea` inside an `InputGroup`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<InputGroup>
|
||||
<Input placeholder="Search..." />
|
||||
</InputGroup>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
import { InputGroup, InputGroupInput } from "@/components/ui/input-group"
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
|
||||
<template>
|
||||
<InputGroup>
|
||||
<InputGroupInput placeholder="Search..." />
|
||||
</InputGroup>
|
||||
</template>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Buttons inside inputs use InputGroup + InputGroupAddon
|
||||
|
||||
Never place a `Button` directly inside or adjacent to an `Input` with custom positioning.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div class="relative">
|
||||
<Input placeholder="Search..." class="pr-10" />
|
||||
<Button class="absolute right-0 top-0" size="icon">
|
||||
<SearchIcon />
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
import { InputGroup, InputGroupInput, InputGroupAddon } from "@/components/ui/input-group"
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
|
||||
<template>
|
||||
<InputGroup>
|
||||
<InputGroupInput placeholder="Search..." />
|
||||
<InputGroupAddon>
|
||||
<Button size="icon">
|
||||
<SearchIcon data-icon="inline-start" />
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
</InputGroupAddon>
|
||||
</InputGroup>
|
||||
</template>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Option sets (2–7 choices) use ToggleGroup
|
||||
|
||||
Don't manually loop `Button` components with active state.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
const selected = ref("daily")
|
||||
const options = ["daily", "weekly", "monthly"]
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
|
||||
<template>
|
||||
<div class="flex gap-2">
|
||||
<Button
|
||||
v-for="option in options"
|
||||
:key="option"
|
||||
:variant="selected === option ? 'default' : 'outline'"
|
||||
@click="selected = option"
|
||||
>
|
||||
{{ option }}
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</template>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
import { ToggleGroup, ToggleGroupItem } from "@/components/ui/toggle-group"
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
|
||||
<template>
|
||||
<ToggleGroup spacing="2">
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="daily">Daily</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="weekly">Weekly</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="monthly">Monthly</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
</ToggleGroup>
|
||||
</template>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Combine with `Field` for labelled toggle groups:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Field orientation="horizontal">
|
||||
<FieldTitle id="theme-label">Theme</FieldTitle>
|
||||
<ToggleGroup aria-labelledby="theme-label" spacing="2">
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="light">Light</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="dark">Dark</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
<ToggleGroupItem value="system">System</ToggleGroupItem>
|
||||
</ToggleGroup>
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## FieldSet + FieldLegend for grouping related fields
|
||||
|
||||
Use `FieldSet` + `FieldLegend` for related checkboxes, radios, or switches — not `div` with a heading:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<FieldSet>
|
||||
<FieldLegend variant="label">Preferences</FieldLegend>
|
||||
<FieldDescription>Select all that apply.</FieldDescription>
|
||||
<FieldGroup class="gap-3">
|
||||
<Field orientation="horizontal">
|
||||
<Checkbox id="dark" />
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="dark" class="font-normal">Dark mode</FieldLabel>
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
</FieldGroup>
|
||||
</FieldSet>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Field validation and disabled states
|
||||
|
||||
Both attributes are needed — `data-invalid`/`data-disabled` styles the field (label, description), while `aria-invalid`/`disabled` styles the control.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Invalid. -->
|
||||
<Field data-invalid>
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="email">Email</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input id="email" aria-invalid />
|
||||
<FieldDescription>Invalid email address.</FieldDescription>
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Disabled. -->
|
||||
<Field data-disabled>
|
||||
<FieldLabel for="email">Email</FieldLabel>
|
||||
<Input id="email" disabled />
|
||||
</Field>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Works for all controls: `Input`, `Textarea`, `Select`, `Checkbox`, `RadioGroupItem`, `Switch`, `Slider`, `NativeSelect`, `InputOTP`.

# Icons
|
||||
|
||||
**Always use the project's configured `iconLibrary` for imports.** Check the `iconLibrary` field from project context: `lucide` → `@lucide/vue`, `tabler` → `@tabler/icons-vue`, etc. Never assume `@lucide/vue`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Icons in Button use data-icon attribute
|
||||
|
||||
Add `data-icon="inline-start"` (prefix) or `data-icon="inline-end"` (suffix) to the icon. No sizing classes on the icon.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
<SearchIcon class="mr-2 size-4" />
|
||||
Search
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
<SearchIcon data-icon="inline-start"/>
|
||||
Search
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
Next
|
||||
<ArrowRightIcon data-icon="inline-end"/>
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## No sizing classes on icons inside components
|
||||
|
||||
Components handle icon sizing via CSS. Don't add `size-4`, `w-4 h-4`, or other sizing classes to icons inside `Button`, `DropdownMenuItem`, `Alert`, `Sidebar*`, or other shadcn components. Unless the user explicitly asks for custom icon sizes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
<SearchIcon class="size-4" data-icon="inline-start" />
|
||||
Search
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
|
||||
<DropdownMenuItem>
|
||||
<SettingsIcon class="mr-2 size-4" />
|
||||
Settings
|
||||
</DropdownMenuItem>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button>
|
||||
<SearchIcon data-icon="inline-start" />
|
||||
Search
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
|
||||
<DropdownMenuItem>
|
||||
<SettingsIcon />
|
||||
Settings
|
||||
</DropdownMenuItem>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Pass icons as component objects, not string keys
|
||||
|
||||
Use `:icon="CheckIcon"`, not a string key to a lookup map.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
const iconMap = {
|
||||
check: CheckIcon,
|

alert: AlertIcon,

icon: String

<template>
|
||||
<component :is="iconMap[icon]" />
|
||||
</template>
|
||||
```
|
||||

||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
// Import from the project's configured iconLibrary (e.g. @lucide/vue, @tabler/icons-vue).

import { CheckIcon } from "@lucide/vue"

# Styling & Customization

## Semantic colors
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div class="bg-blue-500 text-white">
|
||||
<p class="text-gray-600">Secondary text</p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**

||||
```html
|
||||
<div class="bg-primary text-primary-foreground">
|
||||
<p class="text-muted-foreground">Secondary text</p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## No raw color values for status/state indicators
|
||||
|
||||
For positive, negative, or status indicators, use Badge variants, semantic tokens like `text-destructive`, or define custom CSS variables — don't reach for raw Tailwind colors.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<span class="text-emerald-600">+20.1%</span>
|
||||
<span class="text-green-500">Active</span>
|
||||
<span class="text-red-600">-3.2%</span>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Badge variant="secondary">+20.1%</Badge>
|
||||
<Badge>Active</Badge>
|
||||
<span class="text-destructive">-3.2%</span>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you need a success/positive color that doesn't exist as a semantic token, use a Badge variant or ask the user about adding a custom CSS variable to the theme (see [customization.md](../customization.md)).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Built-in variants first
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button class="border border-input bg-transparent hover:bg-accent">
|
||||
Click me
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Button variant="outline">Click me</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## class for layout only
|
||||
|
||||
Use `class` for layout (e.g. `max-w-md`, `mx-auto`, `mt-4`), **not** for overriding component colors or typography. To change colors, use semantic tokens, built-in variants, or CSS variables.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Card class="bg-blue-100 text-blue-900 font-bold">
|
||||
<CardContent>Dashboard</CardContent>
|
||||
</Card>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Card class="max-w-md mx-auto">
|
||||
<CardContent>Dashboard</CardContent>
|
||||
</Card>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To customize a component's appearance, prefer these approaches in order:
|
||||
1. **Built-in variants** — `variant="outline"`, `variant="destructive"`, etc.
|
||||
2. **Semantic color tokens** — `bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`.
|
||||
3. **CSS variables** — define custom colors in the global CSS file (see [customization.md](../customization.md)).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## No space-x-* / space-y-*
|
||||
|
||||
Use `gap-*` instead. `space-y-4` → `flex flex-col gap-4`. `space-x-2` → `flex gap-2`.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div class="flex flex-col gap-4">
|
||||
<Input />
|
||||
<Input />
|
||||
<Button>Submit</Button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Prefer size-* over w-* h-* when equal
|
||||
|
||||
`size-10` not `w-10 h-10`. Applies to icons, avatars, skeletons, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Prefer truncate shorthand
|
||||
|
||||
`truncate` not `overflow-hidden text-ellipsis whitespace-nowrap`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## No manual dark: color overrides
|
||||
|
||||
Use semantic tokens — they handle light/dark via CSS variables. `bg-background text-foreground` not `bg-white dark:bg-gray-950`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Use cn() for conditional classes
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `cn()` utility from the project for conditional or merged class names. Don't write manual ternaries in class strings.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div :class="`flex items-center ${isActive ? 'bg-primary text-primary-foreground' : 'bg-muted'}`">
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct:**
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
<script setup lang="ts">
|
||||
import { cn } from "@/lib/utils"
|
||||
</script>
|
