A collection of libraries and tools that help you build adaptive, accessible, and robust user experiences.

← Design and interface

In simple English

Building buttons and menus that work for everyone is hard. This project gives you ready-made parts for your web app. It handles keyboard navigation and screen readers for you automatically. You do not pay anything to use it. It takes time to learn how to style the pieces to match your brand.

What it is

A collection of React (a JavaScript library for building user interfaces) libraries and tools. It includes pre-styled interface elements, unstyled behavior hooks, and internationalization helpers.

What it is good for

Solo builders who want to create web applications that work well on touch screens, support screen readers, and handle dozens of languages without building every component from scratch.
