Measured entry

8bitcn-slider

sliderskeuomorphismmotion on file

A pixel-styled React range control distributed as a shadcn registry item, with the slider component and a separate retro font stylesheet. It wraps the Radix Slider primitive and relies on Tailwind utility classes, theme color tokens, and the shadcn cn helper through the @ path alias.

Verdict

It builds and mounts in the prepared harness and stays within the viewport, but it needs a shadcn-style setup because the bare build cannot resolve the cn utility. Use it only after adding an accessible name and accepting the Radix and Tailwind stack.

Use it if

  • You want an arcade-like slider that fits an existing shadcn and Tailwind theme.
  • You already use Radix primitives and can supply a visible label or accessible name.
  • You need a fluid full-width control that remains contained across common viewport sizes.

Skip it if

  • You need an accessible slider with its name wired in by default.
  • Your project does not use Tailwind theme tokens or a shadcn-style utility layer.
  • You want a dependency-light native range input or a component with built-in value display and marks.

Install

Providerno provider required in the harness

In a non-shadcn project, install React and the Radix slider package, add a class-merging cn helper, configure the @ path alias, and provide the Tailwind utilities and theme color tokens used by the source. Import or replace the bundled retro stylesheet only if you need its font classes.
