Our Story

Founded in 2018 by a team of designers and engineers, we set out to solve a fundamental problem in web development: teams spend too much time rebuilding common interface patterns from scratch. Our open-source component library gives developers a head start with production-ready building blocks that are accessible, responsive, and endlessly customizable. What started as a side project has grown into a platform used by over 15,000 companies worldwide.

About this block

Company At a GlancePRO

Full company overview with panoramic image, story paragraph, key facts list, leadership quote, and stats row. A rich, multi-section layout for company landing pages.

About19: Company At a Glance

The most content-dense About block in the set: a centered header, a full-width panoramic image, a three-column row combining a story paragraph, a divided key-facts list, and a leadership quote card, and a closing stats bar, all before an optional CTA row. Built as a single-section company overview for landing pages that need narrative, data, and social proof together.

Radix flavor

bash
npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r/about19?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

Base UI flavor

bash
npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r-base/about19?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

This installs the block to components/beste/block/about19.tsx and the avatar, badge, and button shadcn/ui primitives it depends on.

Quick start

The installed file exports about19Demo alongside the block: the exact props behind the preview above. Spread it to get a working section in one line.

tsx
import { About19, about19Demo } from "@/components/beste/block/about19";

export default function Page() {
  return <About19 {...about19Demo} />;
}

Then replace the demo with your own props. Written out, a trimmed setup looks like this:

tsx
import { About19 } from "@/components/beste/block/about19";

export default function Page() {
  return (
    <About19

Behavior notes

  • The story/facts/quote row is a fixed lg:grid-cols-3, not a dynamic column count: it assumes all three of story, facts, and quote are supplied, and omitting one leaves the other two occupying only two of the three tracks rather than reflowing to fill the row.
  • The quote card uses flex flex-col justify-center so its content sits vertically centered within the grid row, regardless of whether the story paragraph or facts list next to it is taller.
  • The panoramic image is a fixed aspect-[21/9] box; there is no portrait or square variant.
  • The closing stats bar is grid-cols-2 sm:grid-cols-4 with its own bg-muted/50 fill, visually separate from the quote card's identical fill above it.
  • The quote's avatar falls back to initials computed from quote.author.split(" ").map((n) => n[0]).join("") when no avatar image is supplied.
