atlasdb VS @blueprintjs/core

Disclaimer that I left in 2014, but at that time they didn’t lean into their reputation at all. With that said, I’d guess that they’re leaning into it and capitalizing on it because any press is good press.

They were actually incredibly open with what they actually did technically, and a lot of who they worked with it’s just that nobody seemed to care at the time. They had tech talks showing the full system architecture on YouTube that didn’t get more than 10k or so views. A quick search indicates that a lot of those are gone now (maybe just outdated) and the channel is more marketing heavy now, but just as low trafficed.

They also open source a lot of their core technologies. The main database they used was “AtlasDB”, a relational layer on top of Cassandra. It’s open sourced and actively developed, and again, nobody seems to care, with it at a measly 700ish stars - https://github.com/palantir/atlasdb

People just like a good boogie man story, and after 2 decades of being labeled as such eventually you just stop trying to fight it I guess.

Blueprint : A collection of components for building data-intensive interfaces for desktops. It specifically states that it is not designed to work for mobile. It is most likely better for building internal tools, dashboards, and Electron apps. Blueprint is one of the few libs in this list that has a Date Picker component.

Blueprint is a React-based UI toolkit for the web. It is optimised for building complex, data-dense web interfaces for desktop applications that run in modern browsers and IE11. (Source: Blueprint GitHub)

Blueprint is a UI toolkit for React that is designed to build data-rich interfaces for web applications. The core Blueprint NPM package contains 30+ common and unique React components like Button, Card, Menu, Form Group, File Input, etc.

Blueprintjs seem to not work in SSR. https://github.com/palantir/blueprint/issues/131

Maybe https://blueprintjs.com/ for you, although last time I checked it did not have explicit mobile or tablet support. (They don’t aim to break mobile or tablet but they don’t endeavour to support it.)

There are other libraries as well like tailwind, and component libraries like Semantic UI, React Bootstrap, Ant Design, Chakra UI, BluePrint, Material UI, etc., which you can try out.

I figured I'd get some downvotes mentioning PLTR here. ;-)

GPalantir is definitely being more open with their demo now, so there are some good ones on their youtube channel.

You can skim through.

I'm impressed by how polished everything looks. As a person who does UX / product design, their working software looks better than most designer's portfolio mockups.

I'm impressed by how fast and snappy everything works or feels.

I'm impressed by how rich and custom tailored their UI component library is.

I'm impressed by how focused and tailored their UI for job at hand.

I'm impressed by how every single page in their application looks beautiful, not just a handful.

They actually have all their React UI library published as opensource here. https://blueprintjs.com/

If there's anyone from pltr reading this, good job. Your design people are amazing.
