Is it good to modify/edit the ui/components ?

[JUDE-EQ]

im doing a lot of modifications at card.tsx and carousel.tsx component, and i'm wondering if there's an update, then i update the package, would it overwrite my modifications?

sorry for a noob question but this is my first time using shadcn

Package updates only affect the package.json or package-lock.json. But if you are running the npx script again (the one given in the docs under the CLI option Eg: npx shadcn-ui@latest add carousel ) your modifications would be overwritten.

You can update just the packages by running npm update <package_name> which does not overwrite the ui configs.
