components.json
Configuration for your project.
The components.json file holds configuration for your project.
We use it to understand how your project is set up and how to generate components customized for your project.
components.json file is optional and **only required if you're
using the CLI** to add components to your project. If you're using the copy
and paste method, you don't need this file.You can create a components.json file in your project by running the following command:
npx shadcn-svelte@next init
See the CLI section for more information.
$schema
You can see the JSON Schema for components.json here.
{
"$schema": "https://next.shadcn-svelte.com/schema.json"
}
style
The style for your components. This cannot be changed after initialization.
{
"style": "default" | "new-york"
}
