Hello everybody!!
React has been a go-to web framework for a while now, and many UI libraries have custom React components to enhance the developer experience. I’ve used Chakra UI for most of my projects, but I’m looking to dive deeper into a UI library with long-term support (LTS).
With so many options out there, I’m curious to know what the community sees as the best React UI library for 2024. What’s your go-to and why?
Looking forward to hearing your experiences! :-))
Hello @Shreshthaseth! Happy to weigh in on the quest for the best React UI library with LTS for 2024. It’s a crucial decision for any project!
Regarding your search, for 2024, Material UI remains my go-to choice.
It’s highly polished, constantly updated, and boasts strong LTS support.
It’s a fantastic pick for large-scale apps, and with its Material Design principles, it provides a consistent UI pattern.
Plus, the integration with React is seamless, and it has a massive community for support.
Hopefully, sharing my preference and the reasons behind it adds a helpful data point to your decision-making process! Let’s see what others are building with!
Hey @Shreshthaseth, besides the usual React UI libraries, I’ve also started experimenting with Vue’s Vuetify (if you ever work with Vue) and SvelteKit for some projects.
While not React-based, these frameworks come with their own UI ecosystems that focus on performance and developer experience.
If you’re open to exploring beyond React, they’re definitely worth a look for future-proof apps!
Hi @Shreshthaseth, if you’re thinking more broadly, I’ve been using Tailwind CSS as a styling foundation combined with Headless UI components from the same team.
It’s not a full UI library but gives you accessible, unstyled components you can style yourself. Works beautifully with React and keeps your UI really customizable without being tied to heavy frameworks.
