## What it does

This skill drops a reference for the `shadcn_ui` package into your agent's context. That package is a Flutter component library modelled on shadcn/ui, and the skill covers its theming system: `ShadThemeData` inside `ShadApp` defines light and dark themes, with built-in colour schemes (blue, gray, green, neutral, orange, red, rose, slate, stone, violet, yellow, zinc) or your own.

Guides sit in `guides/` and cover theming, typography, responsive layouts, the decorator, and Material/Cupertino interop. Components are split into files under `components/`, from `accordion.md` and `button.md` through `table.md`, `tabs.md` and `tooltip.md`. Each page ends with usage examples, and the skill itself ships a full counter app with light and dark theme switching.

The point is that your agent stops guessing at the API and reads real signatures instead. One caveat: everything here targets `shadcn_ui`, not stock Material widgets, so the examples won't compile in a project that doesn't depend on that package.

## When to use it
- build a screen from `shadcn_ui` components without digging through the package source
- wire up light and dark themes with `ShadThemeData`
- pick a built-in colour scheme instead of hand-rolling a palette
- find a usage example for one component, from `button.md` to `tooltip.md`
- check how `shadcn_ui` coexists with Material and Cupertino

## Example prompts
- Show me how to build a validated form with `shadcn_ui` in Flutter
- Set up a dark theme with `ShadThemeData` and `ShadZincColorScheme`
- Give me a `ShadButton` with an icon inside a `Scaffold`

# Shadcn UI for Flutter

This skill provides documentation and examples for using the `shadcn_ui` package in Flutter.

## Theming and Customization
Shadcn UI for Flutter provides a powerful theming system. You can use built-in color schemes (blue, gray, green, neutral, orange, red, rose, slate, stone, violet, yellow, zinc) or create your own.

### Applying a Theme
Use `ShadThemeData` within `ShadApp` to define your light and dark themes.
