Shadcn Svelte
Wire a json-render Svelte catalog to 36 pre-built shadcn-svelte + Tailwind components instead of hand-authoring every UI block.
Overview
shadcn-svelte is an agent skill for the Build phase that maps json-render catalogs to 36 pre-built shadcn-svelte (Svelte 5 + Tailwind) component definitions and implementations.
Install
npx skills add https://github.com/vercel-labs/json-render --skill shadcn-svelteWhat is this skill?
- 36 shadcn-svelte components on Svelte 5 and Tailwind CSS
- Two entry points: `@json-render/shadcn-svelte/catalog` (server-safe schemas) and main package (Svelte implementations)
- Explicit pick-and-choose pattern—do not spread all definitions into the catalog
- Pairs `defineCatalog` + `defineRegistry` with `@json-render/svelte` schema
- Component set includes Card, Stack, Heading, Button, and the rest of the standard shadcn-svelte kit
- 36 pre-built shadcn-svelte components
- 2 entry points (catalog-only vs full Svelte exports)

What problem does it solve?
You are building a json-render Svelte UI but lack a consistent, documented way to attach shadcn-svelte components without pulling the entire library or breaking server-only catalog code.
Who is it for?
Solo builders on json-render + Svelte 5 who want shadcn-style UI blocks and Tailwind styling in a typed catalog.
Skip if: React or Vue json-render stacks, non-json-render Svelte apps, or teams that need every shadcn component auto-included without curation.
When should I use this skill?
Working with @json-render/shadcn-svelte, adding standard UI components to a Svelte catalog, or building Svelte web UIs with shadcn-svelte + Tailwind CSS.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After running the skill, your agent defines a lean json-render catalog and Svelte registry using only the shadcn components your app needs, with the correct catalog vs full-package imports.
- Curated catalog component map
- Registry wiring for selected shadcn Svelte components

How it compares
Component package for json-render Svelte catalogs—not a standalone shadcn CLI installer or generic Tailwind cheat sheet.

# @json-render/shadcn-svelte Pre-built shadcn-svelte component definitions and implementations for json-render. Provides 36 components built on Svelte 5 + Tailwind CSS. ## Two Entry Points | Entry Point | Exports | Use For | |-------------|---------|---------| | `@json-render/shadcn-svelte/catalog` | `shadcnComponentDefinitions` | Catalog schemas (no Svelte dependency, safe for server) | | `@json-render/shadcn-svelte` | `shadcnComponents`, `shadcnComponentDefinitions` | Svelte implementations + catalog schemas | ## Usage Pattern Pick the components you need from the standard definitions. Do not spread all definitions -- explicitly select what your app uses: ```typescript import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core"; import { schema } from "@json-render/svelte/schema"; import { shadcnComponentDefinitions } from "@json-render/shadcn-svelte/catalog"; import { defineRegistry } from "@json-render/svelte"; import { shadcnComponents } from "@json-render/shadcn-svelte"; // Catalog: pick definitions const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, { components: { Card: shadcnComponentDefinitions.Card, Stack: shadcnComponentDefinitions.Stack, Heading: shadcnComponentDefinitions.Heading, Button: shadcnComponentDefinitions.Button, Input: shadcnComponentDefinitions.Input, }, actions: {}, }); // Registry: pick matching implementations const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, { components: { Card: shadcnComponents.Card, Stack: shadcnComponents.Stack, Heading: shadcnComponents.Heading, Button: shadcnComponents.Button, Input: shadcnComponents.Input, }, }); ``` Then render in your Svelte component: ```svelte <script lang="ts"> import { Renderer, JsonUIProvider } from "@json-render/svelte"; export let spec; export let registry; </script> <JsonUIProvider initialState={spec?.state ?? {}}> <Renderer {spec} {registry} /> </JsonUIProvider> ``` ## Available Components ### Layout - **Card** - Container with optional title, description, maxWidth, centered - **Stack** - Flex container with direction, gap, align, justify - **Grid** - Grid layout with columns (number) and gap - **Separator** - Visual divider with orientation ### Navigation - **Tabs** - Tabbed navigation with tabs array, defaultValue, value - **Accordion** - Collapsible sections with items array and type (single/multiple) - **Collapsible** - Single collapsible section with title - **Pagination** - Page navigation with totalPages and page ### Overlay - **Dialog** - Modal dialog with title, description, openPath - **Drawer** - Bottom drawer with title, description, openPath - **Tooltip** - Hover tooltip with content and text - **Popover** - Click-triggered popover with trigger and content - **DropdownMenu** - Dropdown with label and items array ### Content - **Heading** - Heading text with level (h1-h4) - **Text** - Paragraph with variant (body, caption, muted, lead, code) - **Image** - Image with alt, width, height - **Avatar** - User avatar with src, name, size - **Badge** - Status badge with text and variant (default, secondary, destructive, outline) - **Alert** - Alert banner with title, message, type (success, warning, info, error) - **Carousel** - Scrollable carousel with items array - **Table** - Data table with columns (string[]) and rows (string[][]) ### Feedback - **Progress** - Progress bar with value, max, label - **Skeleton** - Loading placeholder with width, height, rounded - **Spinner** - Loading spinner with size and label ### Input - **Button** - Button with label, variant (primary, secondary, danger), disabled - **Link** - Anchor link with label and href - **Input** - Text input with label, name, type, placeholder, value, chec
