A shadcn-style component installer for Django.

Project description

Djinn UI

Djinn is a shadcn-style component system for Django.

It lets developers visually build, install, and own UI components directly inside their Django projects using a simple CLI.


✨ Philosophy

Djinn is NOT a UI framework.

Djinn is a source-code delivery system.

Once a component is installed, it belongs to your project — fully editable, fully owned.


⚡ Features

  • CLI-based component installation
  • Registry-driven architecture
  • Copy-paste ownership model (like shadcn/ui)
  • Django-native templates
  • TailwindCSS-based styling
  • Alpine.js / HTMX support
  • Versioned components
  • Diff and update system

📦 Installation (CLI)

pip install djinn-ui

🚀 Quick Start

Initialize Djinn in your Django project:

djinn init

Add a component:

djinn add button

🧩 Example Component Usage

{% include "components/button.html" %}

📁 Registry System

Djinn components are stored in a remote registry:

  • Each component is versioned
  • Includes templates, logic, and metadata
  • CLI fetches and installs directly into your project

🏗 Architecture

Registry → CLI → Django Project

No runtime dependency. No locked library. You own the code.


🔮 Roadmap

  • Visual Component Builder (Djinn Canvas)
  • AI component generator
  • Component marketplace
  • Figma import
  • Team registries

🤝 Contribution

We welcome contributions to:

  • Registry components
  • CLI improvements
  • Documentation
