title: May 2026 - shadcn eject
description: Inline shadcn/tailwind.css and remove the shadcn dependency.
date: 2026-05-31
---
When we added support for both Radix and Base UI, we needed a place for shared Tailwind utilities that both libraries depend on, e.g. custom variants like `data-open:` and `data-closed:` and utilities like `no-scrollbar`.
We also ran into a few bugs while working on RTL support that were easier to fix in one shared place rather than duplicating across every component.
So we created `shadcn/tailwind.css`. When you run `init`, it adds `@import "shadcn/tailwind.css"` to your global CSS file. It works just like other CSS imports such as `tw-animate-css`: a small dependency that is tree-shaken in production and resolved at build time.
If you prefer not to depend on the `shadcn` package for that CSS, we've added the `shadcn eject` command. It inlines `shadcn/tailwind.css` into your global CSS file and removes the `shadcn` dependency from your project.
```bash
npx shadcn@latest eject
```
**Before**
```css
@import "tailwindcss";
@import "tw-animate-css";
@import "shadcn/tailwind.css";
```
**After**
```css
@import "tailwindcss";
@import "tw-animate-css";
/* ejected from shadcn@4.8.3 */
@theme inline {
@keyframes accordion-down {
from {
height: 0;
}
to {
height: var(
--radix-accordion-content-height,
var(--accordion-panel-height, auto)
);
}
}
}
@custom-variant data-open {
&:where([data-state="open"]),
&:where([data-open]:not([data-open="false"])) {
@slot;
}
}
```
In a monorepo, run the command from the workspace that contains your `components.json` and global CSS file:
```bash
npx shadcn@latest eject -c packages/ui
```
