License, pricing and purpose
- License
- MIT · ✓ OSI-approved
- Permissive: Use, change and redistribute freely, keeping the notice.
- Access
- FOSS
- An OSI-approved or FSF-libre license, and everything offered is free.
- Purpose
- An open-source shadcn/ui add-on collection focused on functional motion, spring physics, fluid hover highlights, and AI chat components in Radix and Base UI flavors.
- Commercial model
- Free
- Everything the project offers is free to use, with no paid tier. Donations and sponsorships do not count as paid.
- Tied to a service
- No
- Yes when the components are a client for a commercial API or service.
- Scope
- Add-on collection
- Many components across several areas that complement shadcn/ui instead of replacing its primitives, such as effects, animated or advanced components.
- Domains
- Animation, AI & chat
- Animation: Animated components, motion effects and transitions. AI & chat: Chat interfaces and components for AI assistants and LLM output.
- Design
- Distinct look
- Has its own visual language that no longer reads as shadcn/ui, such as neobrutalism, retro pixel art, glassmorphism or skeuomorphism.
- Coverage
- 25%
- Share of shadcn/ui core primitives that the registry ships.
- Design distance
- 0.89
- Measured on sample items: 0 is identical to vanilla shadcn/ui, 1 is entirely different.
