Personal License

Shadcn UI Blocks grants you an on-going, non-exclusive license to use the Blocks and Components.

The license grants permission to one individual (the Licensee) to access and use the Blocks and Components.

You can:

  • Use the Blocks and Components to create unlimited End Products.
  • Modify the Blocks and Components to create derivative blocks and components. Those blocks and components are subject to this license.
  • Use the Blocks and Components to create unlimited End Products for unlimited Clients.
  • Use the Blocks and Components to create End Products where the End Product is sold to End Users.
  • Use the Blocks and Components to create End Products that are open source and freely available to End Users.

You cannot:

  • Use the Blocks and Components to create End Products that are designed to allow an End User to build their own End Products using the Blocks and Components or derivatives of the Blocks and Components.
  • Re-distribute the Blocks and Components or derivatives of the Blocks and Components separately from an End Product, neither in code or as design assets.
  • Share your access to the Blocks and Components with any other individuals.
  • Use the Blocks and Components to produce anything that may be deemed by Shadcn UI Blocks, in their sole and absolute discretion, to be competitive or in conflict with the business of Shadcn UI Blocks.

Example usage

Examples of usage allowed by the license:

  • Creating a personal website by yourself.
  • Creating a website or web application for a client that will be owned by that client.
  • Creating a commercial SaaS application (like an invoicing app for example) where end users have to pay a fee to use the application.
  • Creating a commercial self-hosted web application that is sold to end users for a one-time fee.
  • Creating a web application where the primary purpose is clearly not to simply re-distribute the blocks (like a conference organization app that uses the blocks for its UI for example) that is free and open source, where the source code is publicly available.

Examples of usage not allowed by the license:

  • Creating a repository of your favorite Shadcn UI Blocks blocks or components (or derivatives based on Shadcn UI Blocks blocks or components) and publishing it publicly.
  • Creating a UI library using Shadcn UI Blocks blocks and making it available either for sale or for free.
  • Converting a Shadcn UI Blocks template to another framework and making it available either for sale or for free.
  • Creating a Figma or Sketch UI kit based on the Shadcn UI Blocks block designs.
  • Creating a "website builder" project where end users can build their own websites using blocks or components included with or derived from Shadcn UI Blocks.
  • Creating a theme, template, or project starter kit using the blocks or components and making it available either for sale or for free.
  • Creating an admin panel tool (like Laravel Nova or ActiveAdmin) that is made available either for sale or for free.

In simple terms, use Shadcn UI Blocks for anything you like as long as it doesn't compete with Shadcn UI Blocks.
