Hi all,

In today's launch, I would like to share [registry.directory](https://registry.directory/) IDE, a familiar developer UI where you can browse components, inspect configuration, and explore source code as if you were opening a real project.

![ide|690x394](upload://uPqNfa9crdjUYAQS5ssvB5CQixq.jpeg)

I did create this because: 1) sometimes I want to explore the code of the component/lib/block I am planning to install from third parties, 2) I want my LLM to analyze the code looking for bugs or vulnerabilities.

r.d [is fully open source](https://github.com/rbadillap/registry.directory), and serves more than 20k static pages to +1.5k visitors monthly

Thank you, and let's keep shipping!

PD: as feedback, can you add shadcn as an available tag here? is now an ecosystem that we are trying to complement with tools around
