Measured entry

shadcn-pagination

tabsunclassified

A composable pagination control built from semantic navigation, list, anchor, previous, next, and ellipsis primitives. It ships as copied TypeScript and React registry source, styled with Tailwind classes, and relies on the local cn helper, the shadcn Button variants, Lucide icons, and the registry dependency chain.

BARE BUILD

Verdict

A sound presentational foundation with clean semantics and flexible composition, but it deliberately leaves pagination behavior to the app. The bare mount fails because local shadcn imports are unresolved, so it needs a shadcn-style setup before use.

Use it if

  • You already use shadcn conventions and want pagination that matches its button styling.
  • You need semantic page links with an active-page state and compact previous and next controls.
  • You want source-owned primitives that can be rearranged or styled per screen.

Skip it if

  • Your app needs built-in page state, URL generation, disabled-state rules, or data fetching.
  • You want a drop-in package with no local utility, button variant, icon, or Tailwind setup.
  • Your product requires a ready-made responsive strategy for very large page ranges.

In a non-shadcn project, add Tailwind-compatible styling, a cn class-merging helper, the shadcn Button component and buttonVariants API, Lucide React icons, and the declared registry dependencies. Preserve the source import aliases or rewrite them to local paths.
