shadcn · github · 2026-11-11
shadcn (creator of shadcn/ui) released improve, an open-source tool that hit 10.4k stars (+333 in a day).
The idea is a two-stage workflow: use your most capable model to audit the entire codebase and write structured improvement plans, then hand those plans to cheaper models for execution — cutting cost while keeping planning quality high.
