Measured entry

reui-frame

cardminimal-flat

A composable card frame with panels, semantic header and footer sections, spacing choices, stacked and dense layouts, and default, inverse, or ghost treatments. It ships as a shadcn registry TypeScript component and depends on class-variance-authority, the shadcn cn helper, Tailwind theme tokens, custom-property utilities, and advanced selectors.

Verdict

A capable choice for structured, multi-panel cards, especially when dense and stacked arrangements are common. It builds, mounts, stays within the tested viewports, and reports no accessibility findings in the configured harness, but it does not mount bare and needs a shadcn-style setup.

Use it if

  • You need several related card panels to share one outer frame and consistent spacing.
  • Your interface needs stacked or flush panel groups alongside ordinary separated panels.
  • Your project already uses shadcn conventions and Tailwind theme tokens.

Skip it if

  • You only need a basic standalone card and do not want the extra variant and layout machinery.
  • Your styling stack cannot compile Tailwind custom-property utilities or relational selectors.
  • You need built-in interactive behavior, disclosure state, or accessible widget semantics rather than layout primitives.
  • Your project cannot provide the shadcn cn helper and its path alias.

In a non-shadcn project, add class-variance-authority, provide a compatible cn class-merging helper, configure the referenced path alias, and supply Tailwind with the expected color, radius, spacing, shadow, and dark-mode tokens plus support for the component's custom-property utilities and selectors.
