# Things

> Things is an open-source collection of accessible, neobrutalist React components built with Tailwind CSS. Components can be copied into an application or installed through the shadcn registry.

## Primary documentation

- [Documentation](https://things.marvlock.com/docs): Installation, component guides, and examples.
- [Installation](https://things.marvlock.com/docs/installation): Set up Things and install components.
- [Component index](https://things.marvlock.com/docs/components/accordion): Browse the component documentation from the sidebar.
- [Examples](https://things.marvlock.com/docs/examples): Complete interface examples.

## Component registry

- [Registry index](https://things.marvlock.com/registry/index.json): Machine-readable registry manifest.
- [Button registry item](https://things.marvlock.com/registry/ui/button.json): Example component installation payload.

## Usage

Initialize shadcn in the destination project, then install a component:

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://things.marvlock.com/registry/ui/button.json
```

## Important notes

- Things targets React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS projects.
- Components are source-owned after installation; adapt styles and behavior to the destination application.
- Prefer the individual component documentation page for API and accessibility details before suggesting implementation changes.
- The project source and issue tracker are at [github.com/marvlock/things](https://github.com/marvlock/things).
