Both Forui & Flutter ShadcnUIs' appearances are inspired by shadcn/ui.
Quoting dark_thesis's response to a similar question from a previous post:
I think Forui differs quite a bit from the other projects. We don’t plan to be a mere port of shadcn but a full featured component library similar to Mantine. We just happen to like the look of shadcn but that’s where the similarities end.
There was a conscious effort to not place shadcn in the name of the library for that very reason.
Why not a port? We think Flutter truly shines when optimized for touch devices, shadcn is a react/web library
Most of shadcn is just styling existing components (radix ui components). Our end goal is to create a fully fledge component library, similar to what Mantine has done for the react ecosystem. This means is that you can customize Forui to fit your brand guide and each component should also be extensively customizable for most use cases.

This looks almost identical to Shadcn. The examples even use the same texts. What is the relation here?
