  • nextui

    🚀 Beautiful, fast and modern React UI library.

    Something like NextUI would work, i.e. a “New Gen” UI framework. It’s Tailwind based AND it works in both .astro and .tsx files. Amazing!

  • nanostores

    A tiny (286 bytes) state manager for React/RN/Preact/Vue/Svelte with many atomic tree-shakable stores

    In its docs, Astro recommends nanostores, but I’ve used effector in the past. And LOVED IT. So I’ve used it for this project as well.

  • storybook

    Storybook is the industry standard workshop for building, documenting, and testing UI components in isolation

    Astro has no runtime. This means no unit tests. This also means no Storybook for your Astro components (although, they’re working on it!)

  • mantine

    A fully featured React components library

    Here’s another mentality shift for you. If you were thinking in a providers pattern, you need to snap out of it. You can no longer store your theme in a provider. No more RadixUI or MantineUI for you.

  • roadmap

    Ideas, suggestions, and formal RFC proposals for the Astro project. (by withastro)

    Nonetheless, the Astro team is already thinking and working on the build engine. So it will only become better.

  • effector-react

    Business logic with ease ☄️

    In its docs, Astro recommends nanostores, but I’ve used effector in the past. And LOVED IT. So I’ve used it for this project as well.
