Shadcn hero sections for ecommerce
Ecommerce heroes don't sell the brand — they sell the product. Visitors land from a paid ad or organic search with a specific intent: buy something. The hero either escorts them to the product or loses them. Lead with a high-quality product shot, a price-anchored headline ('From $49'), and a single CTA: 'Shop now' or the product name itself. Brand storytelling belongs on the About page.

For Tailwind v3 or Base UI, swap the URL prefix — see /tailwind-v3-shadcn or /base-ui-shadcn.
Why this differs for ecommerce
Ecommerce funnels are conversion-rate-obsessed. Every percentage point on hero CTR translates directly to revenue. Generic 'lifestyle hero' images with smiling models holding the product underperform clean studio product shots on a neutral background. Test it on your own store before believing me.

Frequently asked questions
Should the ecommerce hero include pricing?
Yes — anchor pricing creates qualifying intent. 'Premium leather wallets, from $89' filters out visitors who weren't going to buy anyway and primes the rest. Hiding price (forcing visitors to click through to discover it) feels evasive on ecom and tanks add-to-cart rates. The exception: ultra-luxury brands where price-on-request signals exclusivity. If you're not Rolex or Hermes, show the price.
Carousel of products, or single hero product?
Single product if you have a hero SKU; carousel if your value prop is variety. Single-product heroes convert higher per-impression because they reduce decision load. Carousels work for category-led stores ('100+ knife designs') where browsing IS the value. The wrong move: a carousel of three random products that don't tell a story. Pick a hero product or own the variety angle — don't half-commit.
Where should the search bar go?
Persistent in the navbar, not in the hero. Putting search in the hero competes with the buy CTA and tanks conversion on the hero's primary product. Visitors who want to search will look at the navbar — a behavior so universal that you don't need to hand-hold. Save the hero real estate for the product and the price anchor; let the navbar handle search and category navigation.
