Top 5 Projects Compared

storybook
86,222

Storybook is an open-source tool for building UI components and pages in isolation, making it easier to develop, test, and document UI components.

Code Example

import { Button } from './Button';

export default {
  component: Button,
  title: 'Components/Button',
};

export const Primary = () => <Button primary>Button</Button>;

Pros

Storybook provides a comprehensive development environment for UI components, unlike more specialized libraries like tsparticles or angular-google-maps.
It supports multiple frontend frameworks, making it more versatile than Angular-specific libraries like angular/components or ng-zorro-antd.
Storybook offers extensive documentation and testing capabilities, surpassing many of the listed component libraries in this aspect.

Cons

Storybook has a steeper learning curve compared to simpler component libraries like ngx-bootstrap or ng-select.
It requires more setup and configuration than lightweight alternatives such as tagify or angular-calendar.
Storybook may be overkill for small projects or teams that don't need its full range of features, unlike more focused tools like BuilderIO/mitosis or component-party.dev.

components

Angular Material is a UI component library for Angular applications, providing a set of reusable, well-tested, and accessible components.

Code Example

import { MatButtonModule } from '@angular/material/button';

@NgModule({
  imports: [MatButtonModule],
})
export class AppModule { }

Pros

Seamless integration with Angular, providing a consistent and optimized experience for Angular developers
Extensive set of pre-built, customizable components that follow Material Design guidelines
Strong focus on accessibility and internationalization, making it easier to create inclusive applications

Cons

Steeper learning curve compared to some other UI libraries due to its tight integration with Angular
Limited design flexibility compared to more customizable libraries like Tailwind CSS or styled-components
Larger bundle size compared to lightweight alternatives, which may impact initial load times for applications

mitosis
12,931

BuilderIO/mitosis is a tool for writing components once and compiling them to multiple frameworks.

Code Example

import { useState } from '@builder.io/mitosis';

export default function Counter() {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
  return <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Count: {count}</button>;
}

Pros

Enables writing components once and targeting multiple frameworks, reducing development time and effort.
Supports a wide range of popular frameworks, including React, Vue, Angular, and Svelte.
Provides a unified API for state management and lifecycle hooks across different frameworks.

Cons

May introduce an additional layer of complexity compared to native framework development.
Limited ecosystem and community support compared to more established projects like Storybook or Angular Material.
Potential performance overhead due to the abstraction layer, especially for complex components.

core
12,735

StencilJS is a compiler for building fast, reusable web components and progressive web apps.

Code Example

@Component({
  tag: 'my-component',
  styleUrl: 'my-component.css'
})
export class MyComponent {
  @Prop() name: string;
  render() { return <div>Hello, {this.name}</div>; }
}

Pros

Framework-agnostic: StencilJS components can be used in any major framework or with no framework at all.
Performance-focused: StencilJS generates highly optimized components with a small footprint.
TypeScript support: Built with TypeScript, offering excellent type checking and developer experience.

Cons

Learning curve: Requires understanding of web components and StencilJS-specific concepts.
Limited ecosystem: Smaller community and fewer ready-made components compared to some framework-specific libraries.
Build complexity: May require additional configuration for optimal integration with some frameworks or build systems.

primeng
11,302

PrimeNG is a comprehensive UI component library for Angular applications, offering a wide range of customizable and feature-rich components.

Code Example

import { ButtonModule } from 'primeng/button';
import { TableModule } from 'primeng/table';

@NgModule({
  imports: [ButtonModule, TableModule]
})

Pros

Extensive component library: PrimeNG offers a vast collection of UI components, covering most common use cases in web development.
Consistent theming: The library provides a robust theming system, allowing for easy customization and consistent styling across components.
Active development: PrimeNG is regularly updated with new features and improvements, ensuring compatibility with the latest Angular versions.

Cons

Learning curve: Due to its extensive feature set, PrimeNG may have a steeper learning curve compared to simpler libraries.
Bundle size: The comprehensive nature of PrimeNG can lead to larger bundle sizes if not properly optimized.
Angular-specific: Unlike some other projects like Storybook or Mitosis, PrimeNG is specifically designed for Angular, limiting its use in other frameworks.
