Not the author and have no skin in the game. A link back to the original and referring to their MIT license is probably a good idea for the author of this. But the main difference is that it is a theme for a completely different UI kit. Visually similar, but this is for Bootstrap CSS, whereas shadcn is for React. (These are not opposites, but you can use either without the other.)
In fact, that could even be the headline of the website: Want to use shadcn but don't want to rewrite your application in React? Use Shade/Bs!
Yes this was massively inspired by shadcn and his great work. I'll make sure that's better communicated in the site. And the MIT License.
I wanted to use shadcn/ui for a project, but I wasn't using React. I thought that was a shame, so I built one for my preferred stack, Bootstrap+net/http+html/template+htmx.
So its fundamentally a different architecture better suited for template based web applications. Like Django or Rails or Go html/template. It serves a completely disjoint market.
Thanks a lot for this understanding response, I'm still pretty new to this.
Looks nice, but many of the components in the demo have issues. I'm on Chrome and Safari on MacOS 14.5.
- modals don't open
- navbar demo, z-index is broken
- popovers don't work
- cannot tell what scrollspy does, i think because it isn't working. nothing happens.
Anyway, I've been looking for something like this and would have even paid for it, but with so many components not working unfortunately I have to pass.
Also, I just found https://franken-ui.dev/ which was posted here a week or so ago but it's for Tailwind instead. Still, easy to get up and running with a few CDN links.
Hey there, your feedback is extremely valuable, thank you.
I wanted to get an appealing MVP to launch, to see if there's any interest. Since there is some, I'll prioritized getting a more organized and polished component list. Also forgot -webkit-backdrop-filter, oops.
I did make the cmd+k shortcut the doc search modal, so you can try that if you'd like. Its also a cool htmx demo against an EC2 Go net/http server.
