antcn — Svelte component registry

Svelte components and utilities at https://cn.ants.dev.

Install

npx shadcn-svelte add -y -o https://cn.ants.dev/r/<name>.json

If the project has no components.json, run npx shadcn-svelte init first.

Motion

Where an animation belongs, reach for the View Transition API through the tools helpers and the globals classes, and not for a hand-rolled equivalent.

A view transition buys continuity: use it when the user must follow an element from one place to another. A thumbnail that becomes a full screen, a row that leaves a list, a card that opens into its own route.

Design a screen from its entrances: for every way the user arrives, name what they follow and where it lands — the hero — and name it on both sides of the navigation, or it animates nothing.

references/tools.md is the mechanics — which tool reaches which change, the helpers, and the Safari budget on named elements, which a list spends fastest: its rows are unbounded. references/globals.md holds the ready-made transition-spring, transition-morph, and transition-instant animations; read it before you write a keyframe.

Catalog

Before building any Svelte component or utility, scan this catalog. If something here fits — even loosely — install it and adapt it to the project instead of writing your own. These are the building blocks; reuse beats rebuild.

An installed item is source the project owns: it ships as code, not as a package, so that you change it. Whatever the app needs from an item — a fix, an adaptation, a new prop, another look or behavior — goes into the item's code. When one misbehaves, reproduce it, read its code and reference, and fix the root cause there.

One line per item below. Before installing, read its full reference at references/<name>.md (bundled next to this skill — a plain local file read, no network): props/API, dependencies, and post-install wiring to use it correctly in one pass. The one-liner is for recognizing a match; the reference is the documentation you act on. The CLI merges CSS but not layouts, so the reference also lists the manual steps it can't do for you (e.g. onNavigate(navigate) in the root layout, peer npm packages).

Each one-liner describes what the item lets you do and when to reach for it.

tools and the shared global CSS usually arrive transitively via another component's registryDependencies (e.g. hold pulls tools) — install them standalone only when you want the utility set or theme tokens on their own.

The catalog has two tracks: Components (presentational UI blocks, inline English, no backend) and Solutions (vertical app-domain slices that ship service logic, UI, and their own i18n, installed under your @/<name>).

Components

• shell — mobile-first app shell with bottom navigation, section tabs, nested-route back behavior, and slots for headers, toolbars and a quiet footer that pages centre above. Reach for it when building a PWA-style layout with fixed nav and contextual actions.
• stack — collapsible card stack with expand/collapse animation and an optional toolbar. Reach for it when several cards should peek behind the first and fan out on tap.
• scrollable — horizontal snap scroller with scroll-to-index, bleed-to-viewport, and infinite loop. Reach for carousels, pickers, and edge-to-edge horizontal lists.
• panel — tappable list row with left/right/icon slots and swipe-reveal trailing actions. Reach for contact lists, settings rows, or anywhere a row needs inline actions.
• fullscreen — tap-to-expand overlay with morph animation, optional toolbar, and programmatic show/hide. Reach for it when a thumbnail or card should open into an immersive fullscreen layer.
• dismissable — swipe-to-dismiss wrapper with optional slide-out animation and programmatic dismiss/remove. Reach for notification stacks, banners, or flick-away cards.
• dropdown — action menu with anchor positioning, morph animation, and nested layers. Reach for toolbar overflow, contextual actions, or multi-step pickers.
• input-form — inline text field that auto-saves on blur or Enter when the value changed. Reach for editable display names and other single-field edits without a save button.
• hold — hold-to-confirm button for dangerous actions: fires only after a brief hold, with countdown feedback. Reach for it instead of a confirmation dialog when inline confirmation is enough.
• clipboard — copy-to-clipboard button with loading and success states; supports async text. Reach for copying IDs, invite links, or other strings without a separate input.
• share — share button with clipboard fallback when native share is unavailable. Reach for invite links and other share payloads on mobile-first flows.
• selector — card-style single- or multi-choice picker with radio or checkbox indicators. Reach for plan pickers, settings toggles, or tappable option lists.
• taptap — multi-tap gate that fires only after N consecutive taps within a gap. Reach for accidental-tap protection on destructive or rare actions.
• shake — brief horizontal shake on a bound wrapper. Reach for obvious validation failures on small forms where error copy adds little value.
• steps — a flow shown one step at a time, the next falling onto the screen from above and the one done sinking away, and the other way round going back, each card keeping its own width, with its progress available anywhere inside and a ready-made progress line that can lead back to a step done. Reach for onboarding, creation wizards, and any multi-step flow where each step should feel like a new card.
• tools — shared helpers for dates, currency, media queries, view transitions, navigation glue, and common browser utilities. Reach for the same helper set antcn components rely on.
• globals — shared theme tokens and Tailwind globals for constructive color, standalone/tim variants, and morph transitions. Reach for consistent styling across antcn components.

<!-- Fixed catalog order: tools, globals, hold, shell. Append one line per newly registered item as `**<name>** — <capabilities>. Reach for <use case>.` Capabilities only — what the consumer can do with it, not how it's built. Avoid: internal structure (sub-components, exports, file layout), dependencies (shadcn, sibling items, npm/libs), function/store/type names, props, install commands, transitively-pulled notes. Those live in references/<name>.md (auto-generated from the item README by the reference-bundler). -->

Solutions

Vertical app-domain slices (auth, notifications, realtime, …) that ship service logic, UI, and their own i18n. Install the same way; the whole svc/ + ui/ + ui/intl/ tree lands under your @/<name>:

npx shadcn-svelte add -y -o https://cn.ants.dev/r/<name>.json

Solutions that ship i18n read a host svintl mount at $lib/intl — the consumer owns it (the CLI can't scaffold it). Set it up once: run npx intl hola, then have its index.ts export a persisted selected writable plus locale, locales, dictionaries, and the Grammar type. Each Solution uses a subset, and its bundled ui/intl/ copy derives from this host.

Every Solution ships its dictionary already translated into 15 locales: ar-SA, de-DE, en-US, es-ES, fr-FR, hi-IN, it-IT, ja-JP, ko-KR, nl-NL, ru-RU, sw-TZ, tr-TR, uk-UA, zh-CN. Register the mount after the install:

npx intl import <name> src/@/<name>/ui/intl

import reconciles the mount to your host locale set. It deletes a locale your host does not have. It translates a locale your host has and the Solution does not — that call costs OpenAI time and money. Keep your host locale set within the 15 above to avoid it.

Each Solution's reference (references/<name>.md) lists the $config fields it needs and any consumer wiring (e.g. interfaces to extend). Sibling Solutions arrive automatically via local: dependencies.

Grammatical form (cross-cutting i18n)

Some languages word a message by the subject's grammatical gender ({name} added vs Russian добавил/добавила). This is a translation concern that spans the svintl host, the account, and your UI — owned by no single Solution. Enable it once with npx intl genders he she none (the listed tokens become a generated Grammar union in $lib/intl; the last is the neutral/fallback). Gender-varying dictionary entries then become functions taking the gender as their last argument — (name, gender) => …, or just (gender) => … when the phrase has no other placeholders. The subject's gender is stored per account as grammar?: Grammar | null (antcn's iam carries it on Echo); pass that account's value into the dictionary function — the subject's gender, not the viewer's. Full mechanics, consumption modes, and examples: references/grammatical-form.md.

<!-- Append one line per registered Solution as `**<name>** — <capabilities>. Reach for <use case>.` Same rule as Components — consumer-facing capabilities, not internal structure, dependencies, API names, or wiring. Details live in references/<name>.md. -->

• net — shared API client and query helpers for declaring backend resources; requests wait out an outage, offline spell or maintenance window and go again, while a dialog and banner keep the user informed. Reach for any feature or Solution that talks to your API.
• iam — complete sign-in plus an account security screen: sign in or sign up with a password, an emailed one-time code, a passkey or Google/Apple, then let users set, change or drop their password, connect and disconnect providers, name and remove passkeys, hand their session to a second device by QR, sign in as a throwaway test identity, and be stopped from deleting their last way in — with silent session restore, re-authentication on expiry, and sign-out. Reach for a full authentication surface and for the screen where users manage how they sign in.
• locale — let users pick their language via a horizontal scroller of native names or a compact settings dropdown. Reach for in-app locale switching.
• hints — track per-user onboarding hints: show once, snooze, or dismiss permanently. Reach for first-run tips, permission prompts, and one-shot nudges.
• realtime — live server-pushed events with auto-reconnect tied to sign-in, a debug dashboard, and server-clock sync. Reach for UI that must react to backend push in real time.
• transmission — push notification permission, subscription, per-domain toggles, and ready-made permission/scopes UI. Reach for web or mobile push with user-configurable topics.
• analytics — GA4/GTM event tracking tied to the signed-in account, behind a per-category cookie-consent banner whose answer holds across subdomains. Reach for analytics or ads conversion measurement with GDPR-style consent.
• bridge — talk to a native app from the WebView: detect platform, drive native purchases, and receive native push. Reach for hybrid app integration.
• fragments — single-use URL hash tokens for deep links and payment redirects that won't re-fire on reload. Reach for one-time return URLs.
• geo — look up the visitor's consent zone to decide whether a cookie banner is required. Reach for privacy-jurisdiction gating before loading trackers.
• payments — subscription paywall with tier selection, benefits, and checkout via App Store, Google Play, or Stripe. Reach for selling subscriptions in-app.
• system — user-controlled PWA updates surfaced as a version card that tracks the running build, shows live download progress, and offers a one-tap install once an update is ready, a one-word version mark for a corner of the screen that turns into the download and the install and can update signed-out screens by itself, plus a browsable localized changelog history the app version derives from, an app-wide escape from insecure in-app webviews out to the system browser, and CI that auto-generates translated release notes and publishes tagged releases on merge. Reach for the PWA update, release-notes, and webview-escape layer of an installed app.
• oauth — OAuth authorization consent: show the client, where the code will go, the resources and permissions it asks for, then allow or deny and send the client back. Reach for when this app is the authorization server and a third-party client needs the user to approve access.
