Honestly that’s about the only thing I like in shadcn. It makes scaffolding your UI kit extremely easy, but then you own it and can extend it in whatever way makes sense for you. Unfortunately I’m allergic to Tailwind, and React-only makes it a no-go for me, too :(

There are alternatives, of course, but what I’d like to see is a kinda unified component API spec that you can implement however you like, which both humans and AI can pick up without having to learn whatever idiosyncratic props you might have chosen. So I guess, I’d like to see other libraries use shadcn props with “sane”¹ implementation under the hood?

(¹ – in my case, just plain old Svelte components with inline CSS and/or CSS modules :-)
