Measured entry
hextaui-radio-group
A client-side radio-group primitive shipped as a shadcn registry component. It wraps Radix Radio Group with Tailwind utility and theme classes, uses a Lucide circle for the selected mark, and expects the project-local cn class-merging helper.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 811ms error during build: [vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "lucide-react" from "<sandbox>re-2081296fa942/src/cut/components/ui/radio-group.tsx".
Verdict
A sound choice for a shadcn-style codebase: it builds and mounts cleanly, needs no provider, and keeps composition flexible. The primitive itself is dependable, but the supplied card demo is not narrow-screen ready and the dependency footprint is substantial for such a small control.
Use it if
- You want an accessible single-choice control built on Radix behavior.
- Your app already uses Tailwind theme tokens and the usual shadcn class helper.
- You prefer a small primitive that leaves labels, cards, and form layout to the caller.
Skip it if
- You need a complete field with legend, validation copy, and form-library wiring included.
- You do not want Radix and Lucide added for a basic radio control.
- You need the supplied card demo to fit narrow screens without replacing its fixed-width wrapper.
Install
| Declared dependencies | @radix-ui/react-radio-group, 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, install Radix Radio Group and Lucide React, add a cn helper backed by clsx and tailwind-merge, configure the import alias, and provide Tailwind plus the referenced color, ring, input, and destructive theme tokens. Replace the demo's fixed-width wrapper with a responsive constraint if it must fit narrow screens.
