NEW Shadcn Update is NOT as Great as Everyone Thinks

Shadcn UI released a major update allowing developers to customize component libraries and icon libraries. While the visual theme presets get attention, the ability to swap between Radix UI and Base UI, plus different icon libraries, represents the most significant change. The update includes a new project creation tool that generates configured Next.js, TanStack Start, or Vite projects with customized themes. The framework maintains backward compatibility with existing custom registries and third-party components.
