Usage MeterFreev1.0.0

An allowance and what fills it: one hairline track split by category, the total against the limit in words, an amber rim near the limit, and past it a limit tick with the overage hatched after it.

Built on shadcn/ui

Base UIpnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://beautiful-ui.dev/r/lumen-usage-meter.json
Radixpnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://beautiful-ui.dev/r/radix-nova/lumen-usage-meter.json

Free, no account or key. Use the command for your project's primitives: a radix-*, new-york or default style in components.json is Radix, a base-* style is Base UI. With the @beautiful-ui registry added, @beautiful-ui/<name> picks for you.

Install by hand
  1. 1. No extra packages: React and Tailwind CSS v4 are enough.
  2. 2. Copy the files to these paths (Source below, or save them all as a .zip)
    • components/ui/lumen/controls/usage-meter.tsx
  3. 3. Paste styles.css into your global CSS, after @import "tailwindcss";
  4. 4. Install what it builds on first: shadcn's cn helper (lib/utils.ts, from npx shadcn init), the theme foundation (its tokens and base styles)
Styles didn't apply?

The CLI adds the styles to the CSS file named in components.json (tailwind.css). Check that it points at your global stylesheet, that the project uses Tailwind CSS v4, and that the file is imported in your root layout. Installed by hand: paste styles.css into that file.

Set up the Beautiful UI registry

Free pieces install from their URL with no setup (that URL gives the Base UI build; Radix projects use /r/radix-nova/<name>.json, or add the registries below and the CLI picks your build). Pro pieces need the registries below and BEAUTIFUL_UI_TOKEN in .env.local.

components.json
{
  "registries": {
    "@beautiful-ui": "https://beautiful-ui.dev/r/{style}/{name}.json",
    "@beautiful-ui-pro": {
      "url": "https://beautiful-ui.dev/r/pro/{style}/{name}.json",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${BEAUTIFUL_UI_TOKEN}" }
    }
  }
}
