- Is shadcnblocks free?
- Partly. shadcnblocks has free blocks in its library (the basic ones need a free login) and an open-source repo on GitHub. The pro blocks, components and templates are paid, with lifetime plans listed on their pricing page.
- What is a free alternative to shadcnblocks?
- shadcn/ui's own blocks, Kibo UI and SmoothUI are free and MIT. Tailark and shadcn/studio both have free plans with a smaller set of blocks.
- Does shadcnblocks work with the shadcn CLI?
- Yes. Their site says you can copy each block or install it with the shadcn CLI. Tailark, shadcn/studio, Kibo UI and SmoothUI install through the shadcn CLI too, so an AI editor can add them for you.
- What should I use for an animated login or checkout?
- Look at pieces built as whole app screens. qodesign makes animated logins, carts, sidebars and checkouts in React and Tailwind, each with a prompt for your AI editor. The free kit is the quickest way to see how they fit.
