Let's Talk About Framework-Specific UI Component Libraries

• Bootstrap

  530 167,414 9.6 JavaScript

  The most popular HTML, CSS, and JavaScript framework for developing responsive, mobile first projects on the web.

  

As time has moved on, monumental advancements have been made for core web technologies. When we think about interfaces, we tend to focus on visual aspects created using HTML and CSS. However, one would be remiss to overlook the impact Javascript has had on user interaction within then frontend space. Early UI frameworks such as Bootstrap opted to integrate jQuery and use direct DOM manipulation to handle interactive elements such as modals and dialogs. But as you may know, this has fallen out of favor due its less than stellar performance, resulting it it eventually being removed from Bootstrap in 2022. Replaced instead with standard Javascript features.

• skeleton

  37 556 9.7 Svelte

  Discontinued A fully featured UI toolkit for Svelte + Tailwind. [Moved to: https://github.com/skeletonlabs/skeleton] (by Brain-Bones)

  

With the emergence of new frameworks such as Svelte, we might expect to see similar tooling appear to pair with these technologies. In fact, that's where Skeleton comes in - a brand new open-source UI component library that tightly integrates both Svelte and Tailwind. In short, it provides a broad set of Svelte components that can easily be adjusted using Tailwind’s powerful utility class system.

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io sponsored

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  

• Vue.js

  381 206,951 7.7 TypeScript

  This is the repo for Vue 2. For Vue 3, go to https://github.com/vuejs/core

  

These days, UI frameworks tend to make heavy use of modern Javascript and utilize components and reactive patterns to handle real-time interaction. Angular, React, and Vue are now well established as the standard for what we know as modern frontend development. Alongside these, we’ve seen the rise of framework-specific UI libraries that aim to provide a “batteries included” approach to UI, with deep integration of each framework’s unique set of features. This includes Angular Material, Mantine (for React), and Vuetify.

• Tailwind CSS

  1,280 78,370 9.4 TypeScript

  A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.

  jQuery JavaScript Library

• Bulma

  157 48,572 8.4 SCSS

  Modern CSS framework based on Flexbox

Other libraries, such as Bulma, opted for a different approach. They made the decision to forego javascript altogether and focus purely on the the UI “shell” (the HTML and CSS). Leaving the onus on developers to code their own interactive logic or introduce additional third party dependencies to handle interactive elements.

• Angular

  699 94,464 10.0 TypeScript

  Deliver web apps with confidence 🚀
