Measured entry

neobrutalism-select

selectbrutalism

A client-side React select assembled from Radix Select primitives and shipped as a shadcn registry component. It uses a portal for the menu, Lucide icons, a cn class-merging helper, Tailwind utilities, and neobrutalist theme tokens for its bordered trigger, menu, focus states, and item styling.

Verdict

A workable pick for a Radix and Tailwind stack, with successful build and mounting behavior across the tested layouts. Do not ship the demo unchanged: the accessibility scan found a critical button-name failure on the triggers, so each instance needs a dependable accessible name and a follow-up audit.

Use it if

  • You want a neobrutalist dropdown that fits an existing Tailwind and shadcn-style component system.
  • You need Radix behavior such as keyboard navigation, grouped options, disabled items, portal rendering, and scroll controls.
  • You are prepared to supply an explicit accessible name for each trigger and verify it in context.

Skip it if

  • You need a drop-in native select with minimal client-side dependencies.
  • Your project does not use Tailwind or cannot provide the custom color, border, radius, and font tokens referenced by the classes.
  • You cannot address the tested triggers lacking discernible accessible names before release.
  • You want a neutral visual primitive rather than a strongly opinionated neobrutalist control.

In a non-shadcn project, add Radix Select, Lucide React, clsx, and tailwind-merge; create the cn helper; configure Tailwind; define the referenced theme tokens; and provide the animation utilities used by the menu states. Keep the file client-side and add an accessible label or name to every trigger.
