Hey Vercel community! :waving_hand:

I’m Jessin, and I’m excited to share something I’ve been building - NexUI, an open-source UI component library for React built on the shadcn/ui copy-paste philosophy.

The best part? The entire thing was built using v0.app. From the component designs to the landing page - v0 was the backbone of the whole build. It’s honestly a testament to how powerful Vercel’s AI tooling has become for shipping real products fast.

What is NexUI?

NexUI is a collection of 50+ hand-crafted, accessible UI components built with pure Tailwind CSS and React - no package to install, no lock-in, no hidden wrappers.

  • 0 KB bundle size — you copy the code, it lives in your project
  • 100% yours to edit — plain TypeScript + Tailwind CSS, no abstractions
  • MIT licensed — open source forever
  • CLI support — npx nexui@latest add button drops the component straight into your codebase

Why NexUI?

Inspired by shadcn/ui’s philosophy - you own every line. Browse a component on nexui.dev, copy it, paste it, ship it. No npm installs, no version conflicts, no runtime dependencies.

Works with:

  • Next.js
  • Vite
  • Remix
  • Astro
  • React Router v7
  • TanStack Start
