About Application Shell 21

Sidebar with shortcut hints and arrow-key roving focus, next to an issue list you can move through with J and K.

Application Shell 21 is a pro application shell block for React, built on shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS. It ships as 164 lines of TypeScript you own: every piece of copy is a prop with a sensible default, so you can drop it in and replace the content without touching the layout.
