Measured entry

8bitcn-feature1

feature-gridskeuomorphism

A retro feature-card grid shipped as a shadcn registry block, with configurable headings, items, badges, and column presets. It composes the project’s shadcn Card and Badge primitives through 8bit wrappers, uses the cn utility and Tailwind classes, and imports retro CSS that fetches the Press Start font from Google Fonts.

What the harness recorded

BARE BUILD

✗ Build failed in 1.08s
error during build:
[vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "class-variance-authority" from "<sandbox>re-bf0c64d078c5/src/components/ui/8bit/badge.tsx".

Verdict

A focused retro grid with useful data-driven props, but it is not install-ready as tested. The build fails because the included 8bit Badge wrapper imports a missing base shadcn Badge component, so it cannot mount and needs a shadcn-style setup before evaluation or use.

Use it if

  • You already run a shadcn-style React app and want a themed feature grid that accepts custom items and icons.
  • Your interface can support a pixel-art typeface and blocky card treatment.
  • You are prepared to supply or install the expected Card, Badge, utility, styling, and path-alias infrastructure.

Skip it if

  • You need a drop-in component that builds without shadcn project primitives.
  • Your product cannot load a font from Google Fonts or bundle an equivalent locally.
  • You need a neutral feature section that fits an existing non-retro design system without restyling.
  • You require a harness-verified build before adoption, since the supplied registry item currently fails compilation.

In a non-shadcn project, add compatible Card and Badge primitives, the cn utility, the expected import alias, Tailwind theme utilities, class-variance-authority, and the retro stylesheet. Also decide whether to permit the Google Fonts request or host the typeface locally.
