buridan

Use the buridan CLI to add components, apply themes, and manage your Buridan UI project.

Installation

bash

pip install buridan-create

All commands must be run from your Reflex project root, where rxconfig.py is located.

create

Open the Buridan UI theme builder in your browser. Use it to customize your design system and generate a unique preset ID.

bash

buridan create

init

Initialize Buridan UI in your project. This command sets up CSS utilities (shimmer, scrollbar) in assets/globals.css and updates rxconfig.py with the required Tailwind configuration.

bash

buridan init

apply

Apply a theme preset to your project. Generates :root and .dark CSS variable blocks in assets/globals.css based on the preset ID from the theme builder.

bash

buridan apply --preset <ID>

Arguments:

  • --preset: The theme preset ID from the Buridan UI theme builder. Use b0 for the default theme.

Example:

bash

buridan apply --preset b0
buridan apply --preset b2D0wqNxT

add

Add components and their dependencies to your project.

bash

buridan add <name>

You can add multiple components at once:

bash

buridan add button input select

Blocks (charts, dashboards, etc.) can be added the same way:

bash

buridan add line_chart_01

Components are placed in components/, blocks in blocks/. Dependencies are resolved and added automatically.

Note: Components require a theme to render correctly. Run buridan apply before using components.

list

Display all available components and blocks.

bash

buridan list

Recommended workflow

bash

buridan create                    # build your theme, copy the preset ID
buridan init                      # set up utilities and Tailwind config
buridan apply --preset <ID>       # apply your theme
buridan add button input select   # add the components you need
