Getting started
To use the examples below, you'll need to install the Card, Button, Input, and Label components:
npx shadcn-ui@latest add button card input label
You'll notice that we don't pull in the Form component. That's intentional; shadcn's form boilerplate pulls in React Hook Form and Zod, both of which are great libraries but overkill for simple subscription forms. (If you've already pulled them in and want to use them, that's fine too! Just make sure to plug in the URL shown in the below examples for the action prop of Form.
Basic example
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import {
Card,
CardContent,
CardDescription,
CardFooter,
CardHeader,
CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card";
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input";
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label";
export default function SubscribeForm() {
return (
<Card className="w-full max-w-sm mx-auto">
<form
action="
https://buttondown.email/api/emails/embed-subscribe/YOUR-BUTTONDOWN-USERNAME
"
method="post"
target="popupwindow"
>
<CardHeader>
<CardTitle className="text-2xl">Stay informed</CardTitle>
<CardDescription>
You'll be the first to know when we launch.
</CardDescription>
</CardHeader>
<CardContent className="grid gap-4">
<div className="grid gap-2">
<Label htmlFor="email">Email</Label>
<Input
id="email"
type="email"
placeholder="m@example.com"
required
/>
</div>
</CardContent>
<CardFooter>
<Button className="w-full" type="submit">
Subscribe
</Button>
</CardFooter>
</form>
</Card>
);
}
With dropdown
"use client";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import {
Card,
CardContent,
CardDescription,
CardFooter,

CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card";

import {

SelectItem,
SelectTrigger,
SelectValue,
} from "@/components/ui/select";
import { useState } from "react";
export default function SubscribeForm() {
const [language, setLanguage] = useState("english");
return (
