shadcn/ui

Instructions

This project uses shadcn/ui with the New York style variant. Components are built on Radix UI primitives with Tailwind CSS styling.

Configuration

• Style: new-york
• Base color: neutral
• Icons: lucide-react
• Components location: resources/js/components/ui/
• Utils location: resources/js/lib/utils.ts

Adding New Components

Use the shadcn CLI to add components:

npx shadcn@latest add <component-name>

Examples:

npx shadcn@latest add table
npx shadcn@latest add tabs
npx shadcn@latest add calendar

Do NOT manually create shadcn components - always use the CLI to ensure correct styling and dependencies.

Using Components

Always import from @/components/ui/:

<code-snippet name="Importing shadcn Components" lang="tsx"> import { Button } from '@/components/ui/button'; import { Input } from '@/components/ui/input'; import { Label } from '@/components/ui/label'; import { Card, CardContent, CardDescription, CardHeader, CardTitle, } from '@/components/ui/card'; </code-snippet>

Button Variants

<code-snippet name="Button Variants" lang="tsx"> <Button>Default</Button> <Button variant="secondary">Secondary</Button> <Button variant="destructive">Destructive</Button> <Button variant="outline">Outline</Button> <Button variant="ghost">Ghost</Button> <Button variant="link">Link</Button>

{/_ Sizes _/} <Button size="sm">Small</Button> <Button size="default">Default</Button> <Button size="lg">Large</Button> <Button size="icon"><IconComponent /></Button> </code-snippet>

Form Patterns

Use Label + Input together, with proper error styling:

<code-snippet name="Form Field Pattern" lang="tsx"> import { Label } from '@/components/ui/label'; import { Input } from '@/components/ui/input'; <div className="space-y-2"> <Label htmlFor="email">Email</Label> <Input id="email" name="email" type="email" placeholder="you@example.com" aria-invalid={!!errors.email} /> {errors.email && ( <p className="text-sm text-destructive">{errors.email}</p> )} </div> </code-snippet>

Dialog Pattern

<code-snippet name="Dialog Example" lang="tsx"> import { Dialog, DialogContent, DialogDescription, DialogHeader, DialogTitle, DialogTrigger, } from '@/components/ui/dialog'; <Dialog> <DialogTrigger asChild> <Button>Open Dialog</Button> </DialogTrigger> <DialogContent> <DialogHeader> <DialogTitle>Dialog Title</DialogTitle> <DialogDescription> Description text goes here. </DialogDescription> </DialogHeader> {/* Dialog content */} </DialogContent> </Dialog> </code-snippet>

Toast Notifications

Use Sonner for toast notifications:

<code-snippet name="Toast Usage" lang="tsx"> import { toast } from 'sonner';

// Success toast.success('Changes saved successfully');

// Error toast.error('Something went wrong');

// With description toast.success('Project created', { description: 'Your new project is ready to use.', }); </code-snippet>

The cn() Utility

Use cn() from @/lib/utils to merge Tailwind classes conditionally:

<code-snippet name="cn() Usage" lang="tsx"> import { cn } from '@/lib/utils'; <div className={cn( 'rounded-lg border p-4', isActive && 'border-primary bg-primary/10', className )}> {children} </div> </code-snippet>

Icons

Use Lucide React for icons:

<code-snippet name="Icon Usage" lang="tsx"> import { Plus, Trash2, Edit, ChevronRight } from 'lucide-react'; <Button> <Plus /> Add Item </Button> <Button variant="ghost" size="icon"> <Trash2 /> </Button> </code-snippet>
