shadcn/ui VS konsta

Check out the beautiful UI crafted by ShadCN over at the deployed version of our app — sign in with Google and get some sweet cards! Plus, the entire project is open source. Grab the code from GitHub.

It’s Headless so you can use it with whatever UI components you have in your project and as with everything in TanStack it’s type-safe! In this example we'll use components from shadcn/ui to build the form but you can really make it work with any UI library.

Shadcn UI

You can access shadcn/UI using the following links. Official Site Github Repo

I build an Angular or React app or smart component that uses the store in an Nx monorepo. I use the Shadcn UI in React apps, and the Shadcn-based spartan/ui in Angular apps, so I can use almost the same app architecture both in Angular and React.

Finally, for our front end, we’re going to be pairing Next.js with the great combination of TailwindCSS and shadcn/ui so we can focus on building the functionality of the app and let them handle making it look awesome!

Shadcn/ui: I've never tried it before but have always wanted to switch from MaterialUI

Honestly the ergonomics of heavily customizable generic component libraries aren't great. Copy and pasting a simple component to make the specific customizations you want helps reduce JS ecosystem churn and dependency pain. Popularity of libraries like shadcn/ui [1] are good acknowledgements of that.

Konsta UI for mobile (https://konstaui.com/)

I've built a small prototype using Chakra UI, but I was wondering if there is a more mobile oriented approach with nav, actionsheet components etc. I have come across https://konstaui.com/ which looks alright, but also seems very new. What do people typically do here? Do they just build a mobile view using traditional libs like Chakra/Tailwind, and make it responsive? Do they bother with components like ActionSheet etc?

Try https://konstaui.com/ , which spawned from https://framework7.io/

I’ve made an mobile app using Nuxt and KonstaUI with Capacitor. You can see it here: HotSpot Voucher Generator.

You can make desktop and web apps with it too, but unfortunately, there’s no SvelteKit support. However, the same author made a different library, called Konsta UI.
