# shadcn/ui
A practical guide to shadcn/ui: the copy-paste component collection built on Radix primitives and Tailwind — installation, theming, customization, and composition patterns for accessible React interfaces.
## Overview
shadcn/ui isn't a package you install — it's **components you copy into your project** (`components/ui/button.tsx`) and own. Built on Radix UI primitives (accessible behaviors: focus management, keyboard nav, ARIA) styled with Tailwind and class-variance-authority (CVA) variants. The model: vendor the code, customize freely, no dependency updates breaking your components.
## When to use
- React apps needing accessible, customizable primitives (dialogs, dropdowns, forms, tables).
- Design systems bootstrapped from solid defaults.
- Teams that want ownership over component code (not a black-box library).
- Pairing with Tailwind CSS projects.
