Shadcn Category Card 1 Block

For AI Agents

Hand your agent this brief or the ReUI MCP, not a screenshot. Installs with a ReUI Pro or Ultimate license.

Best for: A centered heading over a 4 column photo grid with item counts and blurbs, where a Browse button slides up over each image on hover

When to use

A shop by category section that sends shoppers from a photo into a department or collection
Collection and catalog landing pages: a featured department, curated guides or seasonal edits
A collections browse page that shoppers search, filter, sort and page through

When not to use

Items for sale on tiles that each carry a price and an add to cart button: use the Add-to-Cart Grid block
Individual items for sale on tiles, each with its own price and buy or wishlist controls: use the Product Card blocks
Dashboard tiles for KPIs, records or setup guides, away from any storefront: use the Card blocks
Rows of funds, transactions or integrations, each with a figure or a connect button: use the List blocks

Agent notes

itemCount is a preformatted display string such as 128 items, so format your catalog counts as text before they fill the Category shape
badge is optional per category and takes a ReUI Badge variant; only 3 of the 8 samples in categories set one
The breadcrumb and the Shop By Category heading are literal text in CategoryCard, not read from categories
CategoryCard takes no props and renders the arrays in its data module; add a prop to pass in your own categories
Every href in the data module is a hash placeholder and every image points at an Unsplash demo photo; swap in your routes and photos
Each page.tsx centers CategoryCard in a padded min-h-svh wrapper; drop it inside your own storefront layout
