React Theme Components

Modern applications need consistent, accessible design systems that work across all devices and user preferences. Managing colors, typography, spacing, and component variants manually leads to inconsistencies and maintenance nightmares.

Purpose-built React theme components for shadcn/ui design systems. Get type-safe themes, dark mode support, and customizable design tokens. Built with CSS variables and Tailwind CSS—you own the theme system, customize everything.

The best theme library gives you complete control over your design system, not just basic color switching.

Why most theme solutions suck

Basic theme switchers only handle light/dark mode. Color management is scattered across CSS files. Design tokens aren't type-safe. Generic libraries force rigid patterns—you end up rebuilding theme logic, variable management, and component variants from scratch.

Want consistent design tokens? Custom CSS variable implementation. Need type-safe themes? Write your own TypeScript definitions. Most solutions give you simple toggles that don't understand design system architecture.

shadcn/ui philosophy for themes

Follows the same approach as shadcn/ui—you get the actual theme code, not a package. Copy what you need, modify everything, own the implementation.

Every theme lives in your codebase. Want different color schemes? Update the CSS variables. Need custom component variants? The TypeScript is right there.

Theme components, full customization, copy-paste simplicity. Zero vendor lock-in.

Built for design systems

CSS custom properties with semantic naming. Type-safe theme tokens with TypeScript. Automatic dark mode switching. These components handle the complex stuff—variable management, accessibility, responsive behavior.

Each component solves specific theming patterns: color schemes, typography scales, spacing systems, component variants. Not generic primitives that leave you to figure out the hard parts.

Works with your existing setup

Drop into any React project. Use with Next.js, any state management, existing component libraries. No architectural changes required.

Components handle their own theme persistence and context management. You focus on your application logic.

Growing collection

More theme patterns and design system utilities added regularly. All following the same philosophy: you own the code, full TypeScript support, zero lock-in.

Shared foundation for consistent design systems without the usual vendor dependencies.

Your themes, your control

Copy what you need. Modify everything. Clean, maintainable theme systems that handle the complex design stuff while giving you complete control.

No waiting for features. No rigid design constraints. Production-ready with full customization when you need it.
