@layer utilities {
.h-hairline {
height: hairlineWidth();
}
.w-hairline {
width: hairlineWidth();
}
}Add a cn helper
import { type ClassValue, clsx } from "clsx";
import { twMerge } from "tailwind-merge";
export function cn(...inputs: ClassValue[]) {
return twMerge(clsx(inputs));
}
export function mergeRefs<T>(...refs: (React.Ref<T> | undefined)[]) {
return (value: T) => {
for (const ref of refs) {
if (typeof ref === "function") {
ref(value);
} else if (ref) {
ref.current = value;
}
}
};
}Create a components.json file
{
"$schema": "https://ui.shadcn.com/schema.json",
"style": "new-york",
"rsc": false,
"tsx": true,
"tailwind": {
"config": "",
"css": "src/global.css",
"baseColor": "neutral",
"cssVariables": true,
"prefix": ""
},
"iconLibrary": "lucide",
"aliases": {
"components": "@/components",
"utils": "@/lib/utils",
"ui": "@/components",
"lib": "@/lib",
"hooks": "@/hooks"
},
"registries": {
"@tetra-ui": "https://tetra-ui.com/r/{name}.json"
}
}The key detail is to register the tetra-ui with the following entry:
"@tetra-ui": "https://tetra-ui.com/r/{name}.json"Learn more about the components.json file and how to configure it here.
Now you can start adding components to your app!
