shadcn/ui VS panda

Check out the beautiful UI crafted by ShadCN over at the deployed version of our app — sign in with Google and get some sweet cards! Plus, the entire project is open source. Grab the code from GitHub.

It’s Headless so you can use it with whatever UI components you have in your project and as with everything in TanStack it’s type-safe! In this example we'll use components from shadcn/ui to build the form but you can really make it work with any UI library.

Shadcn UI

You can access shadcn/UI using the following links. Official Site Github Repo

I build an Angular or React app or smart component that uses the store in an Nx monorepo. I use the Shadcn UI in React apps, and the Shadcn-based spartan/ui in Angular apps, so I can use almost the same app architecture both in Angular and React.

Finally, for our front end, we’re going to be pairing Next.js with the great combination of TailwindCSS and shadcn/ui so we can focus on building the functionality of the app and let them handle making it look awesome!

Shadcn/ui: I've never tried it before but have always wanted to switch from MaterialUI

Honestly the ergonomics of heavily customizable generic component libraries aren't great. Copy and pasting a simple component to make the specific customizations you want helps reduce JS ecosystem churn and dependency pain. Popularity of libraries like shadcn/ui [1] are good acknowledgements of that.

KumaUI : Another relatively new contender, Kuma uses zero runtime CSS-in-JS to create headless UI components which allows a lot of flexibility. It was heavily inspired by other zero runtime CSS-in-JS solutions such as PandaCSS, Vanilla Extract, and Linaria, as well as by Styled System, ChakraUI, and Native Base. ### Vue

> CSS-in-JS is a non-starter

This used to be true, but there are new libraries like PandaCSS that bring CSS-in-build-time-JS, thus bringing Tailwind-like performance and React Server Components compatibility. https://panda-css.com/

Use https://panda-css.com/. It’s like ChakraUI but better and pretty similar so you don’t have to re-learn much. Definitely worth a try.

Check out Panda CSS. Created specifically to help style components without a css-in-js runtime. It was made by the creator of charka-ui. Been using it in one of my personal projects and I've really come to like it

from the creators of chakra ui, https://panda-css.com joins both great DX and great performance. I’m loving it
