Measured entry
8bitcn-cta2
A retro call-to-action section that maps persona data into a responsive card grid with badges and outlined buttons. It ships as a shadcn registry block with bundled pixel-style wrappers and CSS, and depends on React, Tailwind utilities, the cn helper, base shadcn Badge, Button, and Card primitives, class-variance-authority, radix-ui, and an imported Google font.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 990ms error during build: [vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "class-variance-authority" from "<sandbox>re-f533ec939acb/src/components/ui/8bit/button.tsx".
Verdict
Do not publish this as verified in its current form. The build fails because the pixel-style card wrapper imports a missing base Card module, and the bare mount needs a shadcn-style setup with the expected alias and cn helper. Use it only after installing the host primitives and rerunning verification.
Use it if
- You already run a shadcn-style React app and want a retro persona or use-case grid.
- You are prepared to replace the sample copy and connect each call to action to real navigation.
- Your design system can accommodate the bundled pixel borders, uppercase labels, and external retro font.
Skip it if
- You need a component that builds as fetched without supplying missing shadcn primitives.
- Your project does not use Tailwind utility classes or an at-sign source alias.
- Your policy prohibits loading fonts from Google.
- You need the provided href field to produce working links without modifying the component.
Install
| Declared dependencies | radix-ui, clsx, tailwind-merge |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add the at-sign source alias and cn utility, Tailwind theme utilities, class-variance-authority and radix-ui, plus compatible base Badge, Button, and Card primitives. Preserve the retro stylesheet and allow its Google font import, then wire each call to action to navigation because href is not consumed.
