Measured entry
shadcn-block-login-04
A responsive sign-in page that ships as a page wrapper plus a LoginForm component. It combines email and password fields, social-login buttons, legal links, and a desktop-only image panel. It relies on shadcn UI primitives, the cn utility, Tailwind theme tokens, path aliases, and Radix UI beneath the registry components.

What the harness recorded
CONSOLE

BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 31.10s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/blocks/login-04/components/login-form.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A solid visual starting point for teams already using shadcn conventions, but it is not production-ready authentication. It needs a shadcn-style setup to mount, and teams must fix the contrast issue, replace the missing image, and connect every action.
Use it if
- You need a conventional credential login with optional social-provider entry points.
- Your product already uses shadcn UI conventions and can wire the placeholder links and submit actions to real authentication.
- You want a compact mobile form that expands into an image-backed split card on wider screens.
Skip it if
- You need a drop-in component for a plain React project with no shadcn-style component layer.
- Your accessibility release bar requires passing color contrast before adoption.
- You want working authentication behavior rather than a presentational form with placeholder links and buttons.
- You cannot supply and optimize the missing image asset used by the desktop panel.
Install
| Declared dependencies | radix-ui |
|---|---|
| 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, add compatible Button, Card, Input, Label, and Field primitives, the cn class-merging utility, the expected import aliases, Tailwind utilities and theme tokens, plus Radix UI dependencies. Provide the image asset and implement authentication, recovery, signup, social login, and legal-link destinations.
