Get Started with wireframe-ui

Everything you need to start prototyping with wireframe components in your Next.js project.

Installation

Install components via CLI, just like shadcn/ui

Prerequisites
wireframe-ui is built on top of shadcn/ui. Make sure you have a Next.js project with shadcn/ui configured.

1. Initialize shadcn/ui (if not already done)

npx shadcn@latest init

2. Add wireframe components

npx shadcn@latest add https://wireframe-ui.com/r/text.json

Replace "text" with any component name from the registry

Install Multiple Components
npx shadcn@latest add https://wireframe-ui.com/r/text.json https://wireframe-ui.com/r/button.json https://wireframe-ui.com/r/card.json
Install Blocks
Pre-built complex layouts like login forms, dashboards, and pricing pages
npx shadcn@latest add https://wireframe-ui.com/r/blocks/login-form.json

Quick Start

Start prototyping in minutes

Basic Usage

1. Import wireframe components

import { Text } from '@/components/ui/text'
import { Card, CardHeader, CardTitle } from '@/components/ui/card'

2. Use in your components

<Card>
  <CardHeader>
    <CardTitle>
      <Text width="md" />
    </CardTitle>
  </CardHeader>
</Card>

3. Migrate to production

<Card>
  <CardHeader>
    <CardTitle>
      {title}
    </CardTitle>
  </CardHeader>
</Card>
