What is shadcn/ui?

shadcn/ui is a collection of accessible, composable components built on Radix UI and Tailwind that you copy into your codebase and own — not an installed dependency.

Smart Stack indexes the official shadcn/ui documentation and keeps it current, so you can search it directly or ask questions in plain language. Because answers are grounded in the real pages — not a model's training data — you get correct, version-aware APIs instead of plausible-looking guesses.
