Installation Guide

Hey there, fellow coder! 🚀 Ready to get started with Aura UI? Good news—no big downloads needed! Let’s keep it simple.

Copy, Paste, and Ship! 🚢

Honestly, if you just want to try out some simple components, you might not need to install anything. Just:

  1. Find a component you like in Aura UI.

  2. Copy the code.

  3. Paste it into your project.

  4. Customize as needed and ship it! 🏆

Tailwind CSS

Aura UI loves Tailwind CSS. If you don’t have it yet, let’s get you set up:

  1. Install Tailwind CSS:

    npm install -D tailwindcss
    npx tailwindcss init
  2. Configure Tailwind: Add the paths to all of your template files in your tailwind.config.js file:

    module.exports = {
      content: ["./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}"],
      theme: {
        extend: {},
      },
      plugins: [],
    }
  3. Add Tailwind to your CSS: In your CSS file, add the following:

    @tailwind base;
    @tailwind components;
    @tailwind utilities;

Need more details? Check out the Tailwind CSS installation guide (opens in a new tab).
