What You Can Do ​

  • Use for client projects: Duplicate the file and use it to design for clients. You may share your working copy (read-only or editor access) with clients as a design deliverable.
  • Customize freely: Edit components, swap variables, adjust layouts, and build a custom design system on top of the kit.
  • Use in presentations and prototypes: Use kit components in pitches, wireframes, and stakeholder presentations.
  • Team sharing (Team license): Share the duplicated file within your licensed team and publish it as an internal Figma library.

What You Cannot Do ​

  • Share the original Figma link or duplication link with anyone outside your licensed team.
  • Publish the kit (or any derivative) to the Figma Community or any public platform.
  • Resell, sublicense, or distribute the kit as a standalone product or part of a template pack.

Client Handoffs ​

You may hand off your customized Figma file to a client, including kit components within it. However, you may not give clients the original duplication link or set up the kit as a shared library inside a client's Figma organization. If a client wants to use the kit independently, they need their own license.

Ownership ​

You own your duplicated files. ShadcnStore retains ownership of the original kit, including all component designs, variables, and design tokens. The underlying open-source libraries (shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS, Lucide Icons) remain MIT-licensed; the Figma implementations are proprietary to ShadcnStore.
