The project is Lume, working towards a 1.0 release. Lume provides a set of HTML elements for 3D rendering, built on three.js for rendering, with a system for defining new custom HTML elements with reactivity and templating powered by Solid.js.

This is awesome. We could totally turn this into a playable untap.in competitor using websockets and a framework like React/Solid or LUME

With that said, the situation looks different when looking at third-party tools. There are still some interesting libraries like Solid wrapper around Heroicons or Lume - a toolkit for interactive 2D and 3D experiences, but that’s about it. Still, with an already good first-party collection and numerous framework-independent tools, developing production-ready apps with Solid shouldn’t be a problem.

I'm actually working on a rather large Solid project right now and will post it in our community when it's live. There are a lot of really neat things built on Solid, checkout Lume (https://github.com/lume/lume) which uses Solid for it's elements and even an IDE https://www.glue.codes/.

While I write documentation for LUME, a 3D HTML toolkit, I will be posting demos that I create for the docs. I am posting one demo per day all 2021.

I'd argue SolidJS ecosystem is ready. For UI kits, there's Kobalte, SUID, Bootstrap, for forms there's Felte and Modular Forms, for animations there's Motion One and Solid Transition Group, for tables there's AG-Grid and TanStack Table, for hooks/utilities/Browser API wrappers there's Solid Primitives. You can also easily use existing vanilla js packages because SolidJS doesn't rerender.

With regards to third-party libraries, Solid does not have a lot yet, but it does have first-party libraries. Its first-party libraries are the equivalent of other popular libraries in other JavaScript libraries, such as Solid App Router for routing, Solid Testing Library for writing component tests, and Solid Transition Group for animations.

Solid has an impressive collection of first-party tools developed by its creator - Ryan Carniato - and other contributors. There you’ll find Solid equivalents of some popular libraries from other ecosystems, like Solid Transition Group, Solid Refresh (for Hot Module Reloading - HMR), Solid App Router, and more!
