Hero Sections Explained
A hero section is the first screen a visitor sees when a page loads: a headline that states what you do, a line or two of supporting copy, and one or two calls to action that point people toward the next step. Because it carries the first impression, it is usually the most iterated block on any landing page.
This collection gathers hero blocks built with Shadcn UI components so the typography scale, button styles, and spacing feel consistent with the rest of your interface from the moment you drop one in. The examples in this category are currently in development and will ship soon, with the same preview and code experience as every other block on the site.
First Impressions: Where Heroes Belong
The obvious home is a marketing site: a SaaS landing page leads with a hero, and so do product launches, agency portfolios, and open source project pages. A strong hero also anchors campaign-specific pages, from event signups to feature announcements.
Heroes are just as useful before launch. Pair a stripped-down hero with an email capture form and you have the core of a coming soon page that starts collecting interest while the product is still being built.
Built on Shadcn UI, Tailwind, and Three Frameworks
Every hero in this collection is assembled from Shadcn UI components, styled with Tailwind utilities, and written as a React component first. Matching Vuejs and Svelte versions are part of the collection too, built on the shadcn-vue and shadcn-svelte ports, so teams outside the React ecosystem get the same designs without compromise.
Styling follows the standard Shadcn UI theming model. Colors come from CSS variables declared in globals.css, which means your brand palette, radius, and font choices apply automatically, and dark mode works by toggling a class rather than rewriting styles. Responsive behavior is handled with Tailwind breakpoints so headlines and calls to action reflow cleanly from phones to widescreen displays.
Installing and Customizing a Hero
Once published, each hero block will install the way every other example here does: run the shadcn CLI command displayed at the top of the example page, with tabs for npm, pnpm, yarn, and bun, or copy the files straight from the code tab into your project. From there, customization is mostly content work: swap the headline, adjust the copy, and point the buttons at your signup or demo routes.
Hero sections sit on the pro plan, so the source and CLI install unlock with an All Access plan; see pricing for what is included. The live preview will remain open to everyone.
