You can use shadcn/ui to build accessible web interfaces by copying and pasting reusable component code directly into your project. Instead of installing a rigid component library as an npm package, you copy the source code of components like buttons, dialogs, inputs, and dropdowns straight into your codebase. This gives you complete ownership to customize styling and behavior using Tailwind CSS. It provides pre-built accessible primitives that work across modern React frameworks without locking you into third-party dependencies or predefined themes.
