# shadcn/ui

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@latest`, `pnpm dlx shadcn@latest`, or `bunx --bun shadcn@latest` — based on the project's `packageManager`. Examples below use `npx shadcn@latest` but substitute the correct runner for the project.

## When to Use
- Use when adding new components from shadcn/ui or community registries.
- Use when styling, composing, or debugging existing shadcn/ui components.
- Use when initializing a new project or switching design system presets.
- Use to retrieve component documentation, examples, and API references.
