> Why I built it: after moving from a Next.js stack back to Flask + Tailwind + HTMX, I missed shadcn/ui and didn’t want walls of Tailwind classes (like Flowbite or Preline).

I understand that Next.js can feel bloated, especially when used as a static site generator or within a classic JAMStack setup.

Basecoatui reminds me a bit of Bootstrap during the golden era of Ruby on Rails.

I took a look at the Git repository and tried to find an automated solution to convert shadcn to plain HTML but didn't find anything suitable. Is there a script available for this, or was this done manually?
