How to use shadcn/ui with JavaScript

This project and the components are written in TypeScript. We recommend using TypeScript for your project as well.

However we provide a JavaScript version of the components as well. The JavaScript version is available via the cli.

To opt-out of TypeScript, you can use the tsx flag in your components.json file.

components.json
{
    "style": "default",
    "tailwind": {
        "config": "tailwind.config.js",
        "css": "src/app/globals.css",
        "baseColor": "zinc",
        "cssVariables": true
    },
    "rsc": false,
    "tsx": false,
    "aliases": {
        "utils": "~/lib/utils",
        "components": "~/components"
    }
}

To configure import aliases, you can use the following jsconfig.json:

jsconfig.json
{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "paths": {
            "@/*": ["./*"]
        }
    }
}
