Quickstart.

From zero to a rendered component in three steps. Setup is minimal, and everything you add is source you own.

Quickstart

01

Install a component

Run the CLI in your React project. BoardUI copies the component source into your codebase so you own it.

$npx boardui add data-table
02

Import and render

The component lands in your components directory. Import it and render like any other React component.

03

Theme with tokens

Restyle everything from your Tailwind v4 theme. Tokens drive color, radius and spacing, including dark mode.

Requirements

BoardUI is built on a modern, well-supported stack:

  • React 19
  • Tailwind CSS v4
  • React Aria
  • TanStack Table

Adding components

Add any component, block or chart by name. The CLI resolves dependencies and writes the source into your project.

$ npx boardui add sidebar

$ npx boardui add chart-line

$ npx boardui add agentic-chat

# components land in your project, ready to edit

Theming with tokens

400+ design tokens map to Tailwind v4 theme variables. Change a value once and it propagates across every component.

@theme {

--color-primary: #2879ff;

--color-accent: #7ccf00;

--radius-card: 0.75rem;

}

Dark mode

Every token ships with dark mode variables. Toggle the class on your root element and the whole system adapts, no per-component overrides needed.
