Wonderful idea, great implementation!

Would love to see you guys partnering with TailwindUI somehow. That's my default go-to ui widgets library (it's not open source, so it might be challenging to find a proper partnership model with them).

Just bought a lifetime subscription. And as I already do have subscription - my last recommendation is to switch to monthly subscription model as soon as you can. Monthly subscriptions is just so much more profitable pricing model:)

Congrats again on shipping great product!

Edit: typos.

Could pay for lifetime. Would never pay for monthly for this service.

Thanks for the kind word and your insights! We're investing in our UI libraries, and I hope we become your "default go-to UI widgets library" soon ;)

Haha - wonderful, good plan, fingers croseed! :)

You used to be able to import TailwindUI’s components to Shuffle’s VSCode extension, but I’m not sure if that is still the case (or if it was ever condoned).

I believe tailwind ui’s license agreement specifically forbids using it in website generators

It was not really a website generator when in the VSCode extension. It was more of a copy and paste into your editor, with a easier way of viewing the components available (e.g., via dropdown in the editor).

Hey, we allowed uploading Tailwind UI (as a ZIP archive) into our editor if you had a license and access to sources. Of course, we didn't sell access to their library.

We will open this feature to any UI library in the future. However, we put it on hold because (1) it supports just one format (ZIP archive with category -> components in separated HTML files), (2) development of our UI libraries is more important to us at this moment :)

Oh yes, didn’t mean to imply it was anything nefarious and I really enjoyed having that flexibility/using your product! Have had a lifetime license for around 6 months now and you guys are doing a great job!

How about other open source component libraries like Vuetify? Do you plan adding them in the future?
