+title: April 2026 - shadcn preset
+description: Decode, share, open, and resolve preset codes from the shadcn CLI.
+date: 2026-04-28
+---
+
+We added `shadcn preset` commands for working with preset codes.
+
+## Decode a preset
+
+You can decode a preset code to see exactly what it contains:
+
+```bash
+npx shadcn@latest preset decode b5owWMfJ8l
+```
+
+```txt
+Preset
+  code         b5owWMfJ8l
+  version      b
+  style        mira
+  baseColor    mauve
+  theme        mauve
+  chartColor   amber
+  iconLibrary  hugeicons
+  font         inter
+  fontHeading  oxanium
+  radius       large
+  menuAccent   subtle
+  menuColor    inverted-translucent
+  url          https://ui.shadcn.com/create?preset=b5owWMfJ8l
+```
+
+## Resolve from a project
+
+Use `preset resolve` in an existing project to see the preset that matches your current configuration.
+
+```bash
+npx shadcn@latest preset resolve
+```
+
+```txt
+Preset
+  code         b5Kc6P0Vc
+  version      b
+  style        luma
+  baseColor    olive
+  theme        lime
+  chartColor   sky
+  iconLibrary  hugeicons
+  font         geist
+  fontHeading  inherit
+  radius       default
+  menuAccent   subtle
+  menuColor    default
+  url          https://ui.shadcn.com/create?preset=b5Kc6P0Vc
+```
+
+It works with monorepos too:
+
+```bash
+npx shadcn@latest preset resolve -c apps/web
+```
+
+## Share or open
+
+Use `preset url` when you need a shareable link:
+
+```bash
+npx shadcn@latest preset url b5owWMfJ8l
+```
+
+```txt
+https://ui.shadcn.com/create?preset=b5owWMfJ8l
+```
+
+Use `preset open` to open the preset on shadcn/create for customization:
+
+```bash
+npx shadcn@latest preset open b5owWMfJ8l
+```
+
+```txt
+Opening https://ui.shadcn.com/create?preset=b5owWMfJ8l in your browser.
+```
+
+This makes presets easier to inspect, share, and hand off to coding agents without manually decoding codes or building URLs.
