21st.dev is an open-source community registry and marketplace of React UI components built with Tailwind CSS and Radix UI, following shadcn/ui conventions. Components are published, discovered, and installed as copyable source code via npx shadcn or AI coding tools, with MCP support for component code retrieval.

Use cases

  • find react tailwind components for my app
  • install shadcn-style ui components with npx
  • publish my react component to a community registry
  • get ui component code into claude code or cursor via mcp
  • browse hero sections and marketing blocks for a landing page
  • find animated react components with demos

When to choose

  • you build React apps with Tailwind CSS and want modern, copy-paste components
  • you want a shadcn/ui-compatible registry with a large community catalog
  • you want component source code you fully own and can edit
  • you use AI coding tools and want components delivered as prompts or via MCP

When to avoid

  • you need framework-agnostic or non-React components
  • you prefer traditional npm packages with versioned dependencies rather than copied source
  • your project doesn't use Tailwind CSS or Radix UI conventions
  • you need guaranteed long-term maintenance of every component, since quality varies by community author
