If you want to setup and use shadcn/ui on the latest [Next.js](https://flaviocopes.com/nextjs/) RC (not the stable release), regular setup fails for dependencies issues.

You must force it with `npx --force`:

```typescript
npx --force shadcn@latest init
```

Same for installing components:

```typescript
npx --force shadcn@latest add button
```
