Measured entry

neobrutalism-button

buttonbrutalism

A React and TypeScript button distributed as a shadcn registry item. It uses Tailwind utility classes and class-variance-authority for style variants, Radix Slot for the asChild composition option, and a local cn helper backed by class-merging utilities. Its theme-specific colors, borders, radii, and shadow offsets come from custom Tailwind tokens.

BARE BUILD

error during build:
[vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "class-variance-authority" from "<sandbox>re-34cc0e4d908c/src/cut/components/ui/button.tsx".

Verdict

A solid, compact choice when neobrutalism is already part of the design system. It builds and mounts cleanly without a provider, offers useful composition through Radix Slot, and keeps its API familiar. The main cost is adopting its custom theme tokens and assertive hover motion.

Use it if

  • You want a high-contrast neobrutalist button with pressed-style hover movement.
  • You need default, neutral, shadowless, and reverse interaction treatments from one variant API.
  • You need asChild composition for rendering links or router controls with button styling.
  • Your Tailwind theme already defines the component's custom color, radius, border, and shadow tokens.

Skip it if

  • Your product uses a restrained or native-platform visual language that clashes with thick borders and offset shadows.
  • You do not want to maintain custom Tailwind theme tokens for a single control.
  • You need loading state, icon placement rules, or an opinionated polymorphic API built into the component.
  • Your interaction design cannot accommodate controls that shift position when hovered.

In a non-shadcn project, add Radix Slot, class-variance-authority, clsx, and tailwind-merge; provide the cn class-merging helper; configure the import alias or replace it with a relative path; and define the referenced Tailwind color, border, radius, shadow, and shadow-offset tokens. Ensure React and Tailwind are already configured.
