The epitome of all LLM generated websites. I used to use ShadCN but when every LLM defaults to using this UI, it just makes mine look LLM generated.

Is there any news for shadcn? Otherwise I'm not sure there's much point to surfacing one of the most visible libraries in the ecosystem.

We initially looked into using shadcn/radix - but it's quite bloated. Maybe even warranted with all the a11y accommodations - even the official W3C ARIA examples are not straightforward (most of the time).

Incredibile how web development fell to the point of people making a big deal out of a repository of working examples of UI components.
