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.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 41.07s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/cut/components/ui/8bit/slider.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
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
| Declared dependencies | none declared |
|---|---|
| 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, 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.
