Release notes
What shipped, release by release. For the full view with reactions, see the public changelog.
v0.71 August 2026current
- ai2 is now listed in the shadcn registry directory as @ai2, alongside every other public registry
- Your agent can reach the open components by name rather than by pasting a URL
- The open set stays free and MIT: the listing changes how you find it, not what it costs
- Pricing sections are ready: complete, designed page sections rather than parts to assemble
- Each one is a single file with its own demo data, yours to edit once it lands
- Every visible control does something. Switches change the billing period, sliders move the price, calculators calculate
- Eight presets change colour, corner radius, depth and the type scale without touching layout
- Laid out for narrow screens first, measured in both themes, and usable from the keyboard
- Blocks are included with Pro and Ultimate; your licence key is the access
- Install with the shadcn CLI, the same command you already use for the free components
- Set the licensed registry up once and your agent can search and install blocks over MCP
- Prefer reading everything in one place? Ask for an invitation to the private source repository from the licence portal
v0.628 July 2026
- Dialogs, drawers and sheets now announce whether they are open, and hand focus back to the control you came from
- Multi select fields can be filled and cleared entirely from the keyboard, including removing a single choice
- Controls that are busy stay reachable and say so, instead of going silent halfway through
- Decorative graphics are skipped by screen readers, and the ones that carry meaning are described
- No page scrolls sideways any more, at any width we support
- Small controls got larger touch targets without getting visually bigger
- Menus that open near a screen edge stay inside the screen instead of being clipped
- The inspiration gallery loads several times lighter than before
- Preview imagery is smaller, and the images you see first load first
- The copy button on documentation examples is now always visible on touch devices, instead of waiting for a hover that never arrives
- A form field no longer collapses to a sliver when it is stacked in a narrow column
v0.527 July 2026
- Pro and Ultimate are one-time purchases, not subscriptions
- Founding prices are locked for good for everyone who buys at them
- Any tax that applies where you are is calculated at checkout, so you see the real total before you pay
- No account and no password: paste your key and your downloads open
- The key arrives by email and works on any machine you use
- Ask for a download and it is sent to your inbox from the portal
- Every Framer product we publish, the paid ones included
- Everything else on the pricing page is marked Planned, and lands on your license as it ships at no extra cost
- We say this on the pricing page too: if you are buying mainly for a surface that has not shipped, it is fair to wait
- A legal centre with the terms, the refund policy and the privacy notice, written to be read rather than skipped
- Email updates you can leave at any time, from a link in every message
v0.421 July 2026
- A gallery of 68 sites worth studying, each with notes on what makes it work
- Put any two side by side and compare how they solve the same problem
- Browse by tag, by page type, or by what a site does particularly well
- Separate galleries for social preview images and for favicons
- The design extractor: give it a public address and it reads back the colours, type scale, spacing and accessibility notes it finds
- The accent generator: pick a colour, take the tokens, free and with no sign up
- A tools section in the navigation, so none of this is buried
- Questions and answers on every inspiration entry, written for people and readable by agents
v0.316 July 2026
- 307 styled components, grouped into families with several looks each
- Free, and installed exactly the way the core is
- Colour always comes from your tokens, so a styled component follows your theme instead of fighting it
- Motion is opt in, and every animation respects a reduced motion preference
- Product pages for our Framer templates, with a live preview you can switch between desktop, tablet and phone
- The preview is the real published site rather than a screenshot, so what you try is what you get
- One shared depth scale, so glass surfaces read consistently wherever they appear
- Icons from either of the two common icon styles now sit correctly in every component
v0.2July 2026
- 51 open-core components, each with a variant, tone and size matrix
- Grouped into overlays, navigation, data display, feedback and layout
- One shared axis contract, so the same size and tone read the same everywhere
- tokens.json generates the CSS and the registry theme item
- Motion tokens across every component, with reduced-motion honored
- A contrast pass so every solid tone meets AA text contrast in both themes
- shadcn MCP setup, per agent and per scope
- An llms.txt index and a sitemap so agents can read the whole surface
- Docs with live previews, plus a public roadmap, changelog and blog
- A legal center and an accountless license portal shell
v0.1June 2026
- The initial component set, installable through the shadcn CLI
- The token pipeline with light and dark modes from one source
- The first documentation pages with live component previews
