In practice

Written by AI from this repository’s README · high confidence

Building accessible React UI from scratch means reimplementing focus management, ARIA behavior and theming for every component.

Use it when

When you want a composable, accessible React component library as the base of a product or design system.

Not the right pick when

Wrong pick outside React, and the package needs the @emotion/react peer dependency installed alongside it.

Capabilities

  • accessible React components for high quality web apps
  • component system for building design systems
  • works with Next.js RSC
  • MCP server installable into Cursor from the README badge
  • versioned documentation sites from v0 through the latest release

Requirements

  • @emotion/react peer dependency

Cost: Free and open source

Patch Changes

Thanks @segunadebayo! - Fix issue where the

checked ring of RadioCard and CheckboxCard (outline variant) gets clipped

when a parent has overflow: hidden|auto|scroll. The ring is now drawn with

an inset shadow instead of an outer shadow.

Thanks @segunadebayo! - Sync theme from

@chakra-ui/react: register the missing floatingPanel slot recipe and

update the date picker range-selection styles

This might be the best one I've seen. The APIs are simple but composable and

the accessibility on the couple components I looked is complete.

Great work @thesegunadebayo, really inspiring work. –

Ryan Florence

Awesome new open-source component library from @thesegunadebayo. Really
