shadcn ui is not a component library but the basis for a component library that has great accessibility built-in from the start, so yes, it is a refutation.

- rhymnz 9mo agoYou're thinking of Radix primitives which Shadcn is built on, but both are component libraries.
- lone-cloud 9mo agoMaybe we're arguing semantics, but I think calling shadcn a "basis for a design system" is more accurate than a traditional component library. The difference to me is that shadcn lives inside your codebase and you can fully customize it as you please. You cannot customize a component library like MUI nearly to that extent.
