Use with TanStack Start - Flowbite React

This guide provides three ways to integrate Flowbite React with TanStack Start:

1. Quick Start: Create a new project with everything pre-configured
2. Add to Existing Project: Add Flowbite React to an existing TanStack Start project
3. Manual Setup: Set up everything from scratch manually

Quick Start#

The fastest way to get started is using our project creation CLI, which sets up a new TanStack Start project with Flowbite React, Tailwind CSS, and all necessary configurations:

npx create-flowbite-react@latest -t tanstack-start

This will:

• Create a new TanStack Start project
• Install and configure Tailwind CSS
• Set up Flowbite React with all required dependencies
• Configure example components

Add to Existing Project#

If you already have a TanStack Start project and want to add Flowbite React, you can use our initialization CLI:

npx flowbite-react@latest init

This will automatically:

• Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
• Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
• Set up necessary configurations

Manual Setup#

If you prefer to set everything up manually or need more control over the configuration, follow these steps:

1. Create Project#

Create a new TanStack Start project:

npx degit https://github.com/tanstack/router/examples/react/start-basic start-basic
cd start-basic

2. Install Flowbite React#

Install Flowbite React:

npx flowbite-react@latest init

This will:

• Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
• Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
• Configure Vite to include Flowbite React plugin

Try it out#

Now you can start using Flowbite React components in your application:

// app/routes/index.tsx
import { createFileRoute } from "@tanstack/react-router";
import { Button } from "flowbite-react";

export const Route = createFileRoute("/")({
  component: Home,
});

function Home() {
  return (
    <div className="p-2">
      <Button>Click me</Button>
    </div>
  );
}
