React Router Installation
Step-by-step guide to install and configure Nocta UI with React Router 7
Create React Router Project
First, create a new React Router project:
npx create-react-router@latest my-app
cd my-app
Install Nocta UI
Initialize Nocta UI in your project. This will automatically install all required dependencies:
npx nocta-ui init
The init command will:
- Framework Detection: Automatically detect that you're using React Router 7 and check the framework mode
- Tailwind CSS Check: Verify your Tailwind CSS installation and version
- Theme Selection: Present you with theme options (Charcoal, Jade, Copper, Cobalt) to choose your preferred color palette
- Dependencies Installation: Install all required dependencies (tailwind-merge, clsx, class-variance-authority)
- Project Structure: Create the
app/components/ui/
directory structure for components - Utils Setup: Generate
app/lib/utils.ts
with the necessary utility functions - Theme Configuration: Add your selected theme tokens to either your CSS file (Tailwind v4) or tailwind.config (Tailwind v3)
Add Components
Now you can add specific components that you need:
npx nocta-ui add button
npx nocta-ui add card
npx nocta-ui add badge
Usage
Now you can import and use Nocta UI components in your React Router application:
import { Button } from '~/components/ui/button';
import { Card, CardHeader, CardContent, CardTitle } from '~/components/ui/card';
import { Badge } from '~/components/ui/badge';
export default function Home() {
return (
<div className="p-8">
<Card className="max-w-md">
<CardHeader>
<CardTitle>Welcome to Nocta UI</CardTitle>
</CardHeader>
<CardContent>
<div className="space-y-4">
<Button variant="default">
Get Started
</Button>
<Badge variant="secondary">
React Router Ready
</Badge>
</div>
</CardContent>
</Card>
</div>
);
}
You're all set! You can now copy component code from the documentation and use it in your React Router application.
