#What is Alex Carpenter UI?

Alex Carpenter UI is a curated, high-quality custom registry of reusable React components created by experienced UI Engineer Alex Carpenter for developers working with shadcn/ui who want clean, practical, and well-designed additions without reinventing the wheel. Its core value is providing thoughtfully crafted components that solve common UI challenges with elegance and flexibility — like versatile lists, seamless inline text with icons, and a full-featured pricing table with billing toggles — all while staying 100% compatible with your existing shadcn/ui + Tailwind setup. Built to the official shadcn registry spec with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS, it's ideal for use-cases like building pricing sections, data lists, annotated text, or any part of a SaaS dashboard, marketing page, or product interface where polished, reusable UI blocks accelerate development and maintain consistency.

#Features ⚡

• Info List Component: Flexible list with optional headers, slotted items, and icon support for clean data display

• Inline Text Component: Text wrapper that perfectly integrates icons without breaking flow or layout

• Pricing Table Component: Full-featured table with monthly/yearly toggle, "Popular" badges, discount display, and subscribe buttons

• v0.dev Previews: Each component links to an interactive v0.dev demo for live testing and AI-assisted code generation

• Scoped Packages: Published under @alexcarpenter/* namespace for clean imports and organization
