Installation

Ambar UI is a copy-paste component library for Svelte 5 + Tailwind CSS v4. No npm package to install — you own the source code.

Requirements

Svelte 5.0+
SvelteKit 2.0+
Tailwind CSS 4.0+
TypeScript 5.0+

Quick Start

Use the CLI to scaffold and add components automatically.

1

Initialize in your project

Copies app.css, theme tokens, and the stores to your project.

bash
npx ambar-ui@latest init
2

Add components

Copies the component files into src/lib/components/.

bash
npx ambar-ui@latest add button input select
3

Import and use

svelte
<script lang="ts">
  import Button  from '$lib/components/Button.svelte';
  import Input   from '$lib/components/Input.svelte';
  import Select  from '$lib/components/Select.svelte';
</script>

<Input label="Email" bind:value={email} />
<Button onclick={submit}>Send</Button>

Manual Installation

Prefer to copy files yourself? Every component is a single .svelte file with no runtime dependencies.

bash
# Manually copy from the repo
src/lib/components/Button.svelte
src/lib/components/Input.svelte
# ... etc

Some components depend on each other. Spinner is used by Button. The CLI handles these dependencies automatically.

Tailwind Setup

Ambar UI uses Tailwind CSS v4's @theme inline directive. CSS custom properties are the source of truth.

css
/* app.css — already set up if you used the init command */
@import 'tailwindcss';

@theme inline {
  --color-accent: oklch(0.6 0.2 265);
  /* override any CSS variable here */
}
