April 2026 - shadcn apply

Switch presets in existing projects without starting over.

We added shadcn apply so you can switch presets in an existing project without starting over.

When you run npx shadcn@latest apply in an existing project, we apply a new preset, reinstall your existing components, and update your theme, colors, CSS variables, fonts, and icons.

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest apply --preset b2D0vQ7G4
