Next.js is a React-based framework for building server-side rendered and statically generated web applications.
Code Example
import { useRouter } from 'next/router'
function HomePage() {
const router = useRouter()
return <h1>Welcome to {router.query.name}'s Page</h1>
}
Pros
- Offers built-in server-side rendering and static site generation, unlike many other React-based libraries.
- Provides an intuitive file-based routing system, simplifying navigation compared to manual route configuration.
- Includes automatic code splitting and optimized performance out of the box, surpassing many other frameworks.
Cons
- Has a steeper learning curve compared to simpler React libraries or UI component collections.
- May be overkill for small projects or static websites, where lighter alternatives might suffice.
- Lacks some of the extensive UI component libraries found in projects like Material-UI or Chakra UI.
Material-UI is a popular React UI framework that implements Google's Material Design principles.
Code Example
import { Button } from '@mui/material';
<Button variant="contained" color="primary">
Hello World
</Button>
Pros
- Offers a comprehensive set of pre-built React components, more extensive than many other UI libraries.
- Provides excellent customization options and theming capabilities.
- Has strong community support and regular updates.
Cons
- Can have a steeper learning curve compared to simpler UI libraries like Chakra UI or DaisyUI.
- Bundle size can be larger than some alternatives, potentially impacting initial load times.
- Styling approach may feel less flexible compared to utility-first frameworks like Tailwind CSS.
Storybook is an open-source tool for developing UI components in isolation, allowing developers to create, test, and document components separately from the main application.
Code Example
import { Button } from './Button';
export default {
component: Button,
title: 'Components/Button',
};
Pros
- Provides a dedicated environment for component development, unlike general-purpose frameworks like Next.js or Astro
- Offers extensive documentation and testing capabilities, surpassing many UI libraries like Material-UI or Chakra UI
- Supports multiple frontend frameworks, making it more versatile than framework-specific tools like React Bootstrap or Vuetify
Cons
- Requires additional setup and configuration, unlike ready-to-use UI libraries such as Tailwind UI or DaisyUI
- Can increase project complexity and build times, especially compared to lightweight alternatives like Preact or styled-components
- May have a steeper learning curve for beginners compared to simpler component libraries like Semantic UI or Element
shadcn-ui/ui is a collection of re-usable components built using Radix UI and Tailwind CSS, designed for easy customization and integration into React projects.
Code Example
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
<Button variant="outline">Click me</Button>
Pros
- Offers a balance between customization and pre-built components, unlike fully pre-styled libraries like Material-UI or Semantic-UI
- Integrates seamlessly with Tailwind CSS, making it easier to use for developers already familiar with the utility-first CSS framework
- Provides accessible components out of the box, similar to Chakra UI but with more flexibility in styling
Cons
- Less comprehensive than larger UI libraries like Material-UI or Vuetify, offering fewer pre-built components
- Requires more setup and configuration compared to drop-in solutions like Bootstrap or Semantic-UI
- May have a steeper learning curve for developers not familiar with Radix UI or Tailwind CSS, unlike more traditional component libraries
ElemeFE/element is a Vue.js 2.0 UI toolkit for web development, providing a set of reusable components.
Code Example
<template>
<el-button type="primary">Primary Button</el-button>
</template>
Pros
- Specifically designed for Vue.js, offering seamless integration and optimal performance
- Comprehensive documentation and active community support
- Provides a wide range of pre-built components, reducing development time
Cons
- Limited to Vue.js ecosystem, unlike more versatile options like Material-UI or Chakra UI
- Less customizable compared to utility-first frameworks like Tailwind CSS
- Not as frequently updated as some other popular UI libraries
