About
About Solid UI
With over 1,300 GitHub stars, this MIT-licensed library brings the shadcn/ui philosophy of component ownership to the SolidJS ecosystem, allowing developers to build their own component libraries with well-designed, accessible primitives. Built with TypeScript and leveraging Kobalte and corvu for headless, accessible component foundations, Solid UI offers a comprehensive collection of UI components styled with Tailwind CSS for rapid customization. The project maintains compatibility with SolidJS's reactive programming model while providing familiar patterns from the React ecosystem through shadcn/ui's design language.
With comprehensive documentation at solid-ui.com and active community contributions from maintainers including stefan-karger and michaelessiet, Solid UI serves developers who prefer SolidJS's performance and reactivity model but want the component quality and design consistency of shadcn/ui. Perfect for building SolidJS applications that require professional UI components without sacrificing the framework's unique advantages in bundle size and runtime performance.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you ship with Solid UI.
Solid UI is an unofficial port of shadcn/ui and tremor-raw to SolidJS, providing accessible and customizable components built with Kobalte, corvu, and Tailwind CSS that developers can copy and paste into their applications. It is an open source template in the shadcn.io collection of 215.
Solid UI is made by Stefan karger, an independent developer; shadcn.io lists it but did not make it. Stefan karger has 1 template in the collection, and the author's page lists them.
The listing tags Solid UI with Solid, Tailwind and UI Kits & Component Libraries. Those are its categories, not a dependency list: the exact packages and versions are in the repository's package.json.
Yes. The Solid UI page embeds its live demo from solid-ui.com, and links to it so you can open the real deployment before you clone.
The Solid UI listing was last updated on October 8, 2025. That date is the listing's, not the repository's: check the repository's commits for recent activity.
Clone the repository (git clone https://github.com/stefan-karger/solid-ui), then follow the README. The Solid UI page shows the usual steps and a terminal block with the commands to copy.
Install dependencies with npm install or pnpm install, then run npm run dev. The README in the Solid UI repository says which package manager and environment variables it needs.
No. Solid UI is cloned from its own GitHub repository, so shadcn.io isn't involved. Browsing the page and its live demo need no account either; Pro adds the premium templates, the blocks and the MCP server.
Follow the deployment notes in the Solid UI README: the right host depends on its framework and any services it needs. The page's categories show what it is built for.
The Solid UI listing doesn't record a license. Check the LICENSE file in its repository (https://github.com/stefan-karger/solid-ui), and ask the author if there isn't one.
That depends on Solid UI's license in its repository, which shadcn.io does not set. Read the LICENSE file before you use it in a client or paid project, and ask the author if it is unclear.
Attribution follows Solid UI's license. Many permissive licenses ask you to keep the copyright notice and license text in your copy; its LICENSE file says exactly what.
No. The Pro license covers shadcn.io's own Pro code, blocks and premium templates. Solid UI is the author's project, under the terms in its repository.
Stefan karger supports Solid UI, through its GitHub repository: read the docs, open an issue or look for discussions. shadcn.io does not maintain it.
Yes. Once you clone it, Solid UI is your own code: change the theme, add pages and connect your backend. It uses shadcn/ui, so you can also add more components the same way.
Yes. Components are free with a free account and the blocks are in Pro; both are copied into your project with the shadcn CLI. Check that Solid UI uses Tailwind CSS and the shadcn/ui setup (a components.json) before you add them, and pick the base library your project already uses.
Yes, with Pro. The shadcn.io MCP server's search_templates tool finds templates by what they are, and returns each one's repository and live demo, so your editor can set up Solid UI for you. Your files stay on your machine.
The collection has 19 other open source UI Kits & Component Libraries templates like Solid UI, shown at the foot of its page with the ones sharing most categories first. All of them are at /template/category/ui-kits-and-component-libraries.
Stefan karger has no other templates in the collection.
Yes. The 14 premium templates (Solaris, Reframe Labs, Spherule and Max and more) are built by shadcn.io and come with every Pro plan, if you want maintained code with a design file.
