  1. panda

    🐼 Universal, Type-Safe, CSS-in-JS Framework for Design Systems ⚡️

    PandaCSS also gets a special mention as a new addition to the list of zero-runtime CSS-in-JS libraries. It takes API inspiration from some all the major favorites and maintained by the ChakraUI team, who I'd consider trusted at this point.

  3. vanilla-extract

    Zero-runtime Stylesheets-in-TypeScript

    Vanilla Extract is my current choice for the next greenfield project. I would also recommend checking out how and why this team integrated it with Tailwind.

  4. linaria

    Zero-runtime CSS in JS library

    https://github.com/vanilla-extract-css/vanilla-extract and https://github.com/callstack/linaria

  5. styled-system

    ⬢ Style props for rapid UI development

    Then we started using Chakra, which has style props based on Styled System. I'm quite happy with them after about a year.

  6. shadcn/ui

    A set of beautifully-designed, accessible components and a code distribution platform. Works with your favorite frameworks. Open Source. Open Code.
