Reactjs-popup VS react-admin

2. Reactjs-popup

React-Admin: As the name suggests, this component library is targeted at building administrator interfaces for B2B (business-to-business), for example, managing users in your system. It is based on Material design and has a neat feature where you can let it “guess” your list views by providing a sample API endpoint for your data.

- We want a solution that creates CRUD (create, read, update, delete) quickly and requires minimal effort. - We want to be able to create some sort of complex interface if the task requires it. - We make cool, beautiful projects, so we want a visually pleasing solution. - We want the solution to be independent of the language on the back-end, because, for example, we started with PHP, Laravel, but over time node.js, Go appeared in the stack. In short, we want fast, beautiful and custom. We've had time to poke at various off-the-shelf solutions that we've been advised. They're good, but: - they are created specifically for some frameworks / languages like laravel, node.js - they can only generate CRUDs with a rigidly defined structure, where you can't implement or customize anything of your own. - they can't be styled Here's what we've been looking at Control Panels for Laravel: https://demo.backpackforlaravel.com/admin/dashboard Not a very pretty solution in our opinion. And the promo page has nice screenshots, not the demo "well such". https://orchid.software/en/ Not particularly functional, but neatly done https://nova.laravel.com They have a beautiful, but rigidly set strutkrua, you can not create castmon interfaces, stylize them. Just do CRUD and that's it. And it's paid https://filamentphp.com/ Analog to Nova, with essentially the same problems. For node.js: https://adminjs.co Nice promo, and the demo is way behind As standalone dashboards: https://strapi.io/ Very cool, but for other purposes. It's more of an entity builder with an interface and API https://pocketbase.io/ Similarly, it's an entity builder with an interface and API https://directus.io/ This is a backend builder. https://filamentphp.com/It is purely for php, you can't customize styles, you can't create your own interfaces. It is possible to create only tables and forms by template, and we remember that we want flexibility, independence from the language and the ability to create their own interfaces and customize them https://flatlogic.com This is also more of a backend builder. Direct competitors: https://github.com/refinedev/refine https://marmelab.com/react-admin/is probably the best solution that is currently on the market, they have been developing for a long time, they are our favorite. To the disadvantages we considered the following points: quite an old project, and somewhere the technology is already outdated, unsympathetic interface, old UI libraries. Huge documentation, it’s simply to create CRUD but hard to work without immersion. After all this there is only one conclusion: you need to do it yourself....

react-admin ;)

Libraries and frameworks fill that gap. React-query, react-hook-form, react-router, MUI, and emotion use useEffect so that you don't have to. React-admin builds up on these libraries, and exposes higher-level components and hooks to let you build complex, declarative React apps free of useEffect.

You may say: "That declarative syntax works for simple cases, but I often have to use useEffect and I see no way around it". Well, we've built many React apps (including an e-commerce admin and a CRM) that don't call useEffect even once. So yes, it's possible.

Something you might be interested in as well, if you just want a low effort (crud) interface: Refine or React Admin . These usually don't "click" that well for frontend devs, but I found them easier to understand for backend devs, who usually don't mind following their opinionated natures. Which frontend devs are notoriously resistent too .

Look into React admin maybe. I've used it a few times and it's been a breeze creating a full crud UI quickly.

You might want to check out React Admin (https://marmelab.com/react-admin/). It provides a way to quickly create a full-featured admin interface for your API. You can use your existing API endpoints and data structures to generate a UI that includes everything from data grids and forms to filters and charts. It also has built-in support for common features like authentication, pagination, and data validation.
