Top SolidJS UI Libraries
Top 5 Projects Compared
TanStack/table is a headless UI library for building powerful tables and datagrids in React, Vue, and Solid.
Code Example
import { useTable } from '@tanstack/react-table'
const table = useTable({ columns, data })
return <table>{/* Render your table structure using table.getHeaderGroups() and table.getRowModel().rows */}</table>
Pros
- Offers more advanced table features like sorting, filtering, and pagination compared to kobaltedev/kobalte
- Provides a more flexible and customizable solution for tables than stefan-karger/solid-ui
- Supports multiple frameworks (React, Vue, Solid) unlike the other projects
Cons
- Has a steeper learning curve compared to simpler table solutions like stefan-karger/solid-ui
- Lacks built-in virtualization, which is the primary focus of TanStack/virtual
- May be overkill for simple table needs, where kobaltedev/kobalte or stefan-karger/solid-ui might suffice
TanStack/virtual is a headless UI library for efficiently rendering large lists and tables with virtualization.
Code Example
import { useVirtual } from '@tanstack/react-virtual'
const virtual = useVirtual({
size: 10000,
parentRef: parentRef,
estimateSize: () => 35,
})
Pros
- Highly performant for rendering large datasets compared to TanStack/table and kobaltedev/kobalte
- Framework-agnostic, unlike stefan-karger/solid-ui which is Solid.js specific
- More focused on virtualization than TanStack/table, which is a full-featured table library
Cons
- Less feature-rich for table functionality compared to TanStack/table
- Requires more manual setup and configuration than kobaltedev/kobalte's pre-built components
- Lacks the comprehensive UI component set offered by stefan-karger/solid-ui
Kobalte is a UI toolkit for building accessible web applications using SolidJS.
Code Example
import { Button } from "@kobalte/core";
<Button onClick={() => console.log("Clicked!")}>
Click me
</Button>
Pros
- Focuses specifically on accessibility, making it easier to create inclusive web applications
- Built for SolidJS, providing seamless integration with the framework's reactivity model
- Offers a comprehensive set of pre-built, customizable UI components
Cons
- Limited to SolidJS, unlike TanStack libraries which are framework-agnostic
- Lacks advanced data handling capabilities compared to TanStack Table
- May have a steeper learning curve for developers not familiar with SolidJS compared to more generic libraries
stefan-karger/solid-ui is a collection of UI components and utilities for SolidJS applications.
Code Example
import { Button } from '@stefan-karger/solid-ui';
<Button variant="primary" onClick={() => console.log('Clicked!')}>
Click me
</Button>
Pros
- Specifically designed for SolidJS, providing optimized components for the framework
- Offers a comprehensive set of UI components, reducing the need for multiple libraries
- Provides a consistent design language across components, improving UI coherence
Cons
- Less mature and potentially less stable compared to more established libraries like TanStack/table
- May have a smaller community and fewer resources compared to more popular projects like kobaltedev/kobalte
- Lacks the specialized focus of TanStack/virtual for virtualization or TanStack/table for advanced table functionality
