Overview
v0 is an AI-powered UI generation tool created by Vercel. It takes natural language descriptions of user interfaces and generates production-ready React components using shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS. You describe what you want (“a pricing table with three tiers”), and v0 generates the complete component code.
The tool supports iterative refinement: after generating an initial version, you can ask for modifications (“make the popular tier stand out more”, “add a dark mode variant”) and v0 updates the code accordingly. The generated code uses standard React patterns and popular libraries, making it easy to integrate into existing projects.
v0 is particularly powerful for prototyping and building UI components quickly, even for developers who are not experienced with frontend design.
When to Use
Use v0 for rapid UI prototyping and generating React components. It is ideal for quickly creating landing pages, dashboards, forms, and other UI components that use shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS.
Getting Started
1. Visit v0.dev
2. Describe the UI you want in natural language
3. Iterate on the design with follow-up prompts
4. Copy the generated code into your project
