PrimeNg Release Notes

PrimeNG: Something nice about this collection is how you choose the base theme. You are presented with choosing design options that are taken from other popular design frameworks such as Material Design, Bootstrap, Soho, Fluent, Nano, and more. This is done with a visual editor, which is part of the theming options. PrimeNG also has a Figma UI kit, ready-made templates, and a SASS API.

PrimeNG is released under the MIT License https://github.com/primefaces/primeng/blob/master/LICENSE.md

We are thrilled to announce the release of PrimeNG v16, our most exciting update yet! Packed with powerful features and enhancements, this version takes your Angular development experience to new heights. Get ready to explore Angular 16 support, fresh TypeScript types, and comprehensive API documentation, designed to supercharge your UI component development!

The framework itself is open source and on GitHub and is MIT licensed.

We use PrimeNG which MIT licensed. It's great.

HTMX gets all the hype right now, but there are other tools in the same vain, my favorite being Unpoly (https://unpoly.com). Together with Shoelace (https://shoelace.style) you get nice GUIs real fast, without the burden of complicated dependency management and build steps. Also, you don't have to write a lot of JS, just what is needed for small enhancements, as it was meant to be. Some might say the main drawback is the tight coupling to your backend. In my case, this is also the main benefit as it integrates perfectly with the backend framework (Django).

Hello HN,

I'm releasing Hyperdiv (https://hyperdiv.io), a framework for rapidly developing reactive browser UIs in Python, with immediate-mode syntax and using Shoelace (https://shoelace.style) as its built-in component system.

This short coding video will give you a good idea of what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XJKfxaqvGE

I wrote a brief article about the motivation and approach: https://hyperdiv.io/intro.html

Hyperdiv doesn't aim to compete with serious full-stack frameworks. The core aim was to make it easy and fast to prototype apps and build UI-based tools. I was originally motivated by internal tools at work -- feeling the need to quickly put together UI-based tools to share with both technical and non-technical coworkers, without having to stand up and maintain a full internal stack.

This is my first major open source release. I really appreciate your feedback and support. - Marius

For example, all the following design systems can be used without tooling (some of them provide ready-to-use bundles, others can be used through import maps): Google's Material Web, Microsoft's Fluent UI, IBM's Carbon, Adobe's Spectrum, Nordhealth's Nord, Shoelace, etc.

I wonder if https://shoelace.style/ is what @ch33zer is looking for? Web components often seem overlooked in this crazy dash complicated js frameworks.

Here's what this looks like - note that I'm using Shoelace components for styling purposes.

There are lots of open-source design systems built with Lit. Shoelace is a popular component set that you might check out: https://github.com/shoelace-style/shoelace There are many others...

Would it help if we listed more open source projects on our site?

Because of our focus on components and the fact that you really can use just about any libraries and scaffolding for apps, we don't really have an app starter kit, but it's something we've talked about.

Enter Shoelace an undoubtedly witty pin on "Bootstrap", that aims at bringing back direct usable components but by offering web-components by default, but it also offers web-components wrapped in a react component as well. This is at the core of building a framework interoperable component library, 1) use web-components, 2) wrap them in that specific language's syntax.

I'm really excited about all this, and it makes me have some faith in the web again. I think that Lit is a step in the right direction especially the ability to do SSR / SSG and hydrate a web page. Hopefully 🤞 Shoelace can get SSR running, which is currently one hurdle, but I think it is achievable.
