Using both

Shadcnblocks for the pages around the product, PixilUI for the agent inside it. Each reads its own theme, so keep one library per surface.

Questions

Shadcnblocks or PixilUI for an AI SaaS app?

Often both. Shadcnblocks for the marketing site, auth, settings, tables and dashboards; PixilUI for the moments where the agent asks for approval, runs steps, calls tools and streams text, each with its states listed.

Can they share a project?

Yes. Shadcnblocks blocks use shadcn/ui theme variables and PixilUI items read foundation.css; both install with the shadcn CLI into separate folders.
