<Callout type="info">
**Note:** The following guide is for Tailwind v4. If you are using Tailwind
v3, use `shadcn@2.3.0`.
</Callout>
<Callout type="info">
**Note:** This guide is for Remix. For React Router, see the [React Router](/docs/installation/react-router) guide.
</Callout>
<Steps>
<Step>
### Create project
Start by creating a new Remix project using `create-remix`:
```bash
npx create-remix@latest my-app
```
</Step>
<Step>
### Run the CLI
Run the `shadcn-ui` init command to setup your project:
```bash
npx shadcn@latest init
```
</Step>
<Step>
### Configure components.json
You will be asked a few questions to configure `components.json`:
```txt showLineNumbers
Which style would you like to use? New York
Which color would you like to use as base color? Zinc
Do you want to use CSS variables for colors? no / yes
```
</Step>
<Step>
### App structure
<Callout>
**Note**: This app structure is only a suggestion. You can place the files wherever you want.
</Callout>
- Place the UI components in the `app/components/ui` folder.
- Your own components can be placed in the `app/components` folder.
- The `app/lib` folder contains all the utility functions. We have a `utils.ts` where we define the `cn` helper.
- The `app/tailwind.css` file contains the global CSS.
</Step>
<Step>
### Install Tailwind CSS
```bash
npm install -D tailwindcss@latest autoprefixer@latest
```
Then we create a `postcss.config.js` file:
```js
export default {
plugins: {
tailwindcss: {},
autoprefixer: {},
},
};
```
And finally we add the following to our `remix.config.js` file:
```js {4-5}
/** @type {import('@remix-run/dev').AppConfig} */
export default {
...
tailwind: true,
postcss: true,
...
};
```
</Step>
<Step>
### Add `tailwind.css` to your app
In your `app/root.tsx` file, import the `tailwind.css` file:
```js {1, 4}
import styles from './tailwind.css?url';
export const links: LinksFunction = () => [
{ rel: 'stylesheet', href: styles },
...(cssBundleHref ? [{ rel: 'stylesheet', href: cssBundleHref }] : []),
];
```
</Step>
<Step>
### That's it
You can now start adding components to your project.
```bash
npx shadcn@latest add button
```
The command above will add the `Button` component to your project. You can then import it like this:
```tsx {1,6} showLineNumbers
import { Button } from '~/components/ui/button';
export default function Home() {
return (
<div>
<Button>Click me</Button>
</div>
);
}
```
</Step>
</Steps>
