Chakra UI offers a set of simple, composable React UI components designed to help developers quickly build user interfaces. Its components are designed to be modular, easy to understand and use.
Emphasizing Accessibility
Chakra UI places accessibility as one of its core design principles. All components adhere to WAI-ARIA standards, with built-in keyboard navigation, focus management, and appropriate ARIA attributes, ensuring a good experience for users of assistive technologies.
Highly Customizable
The library provides powerful styling customization capabilities. It is based on Styled System, allowing users to pass CSS styles directly via props or configure global and local customizations through themes. Developers can easily modify component colors, spacing, fonts, sizes, etc.
Out-of-the-Box Dark Mode
Chakra UI comes with excellent out-of-the-box support for Dark Mode, enabling easy switching of application color themes without additional configuration, adapting to user preferences.
Flexible Layout Components
Chakra UI provides a range of flexible layout components, such as Box and Flex, which serve as foundational building blocks to help developers quickly construct complex layout structures.
Powerful Theming Capabilities
Beyond style customization, Chakra UI's theming functionality allows developers to define and extend their own design systems. Color modes, breakpoints, typography, and default component styles can all be customized.
Easy to Learn and Use
Chakra UI's API is intuitively designed, and its documentation is clear. Coupled with its emphasis on developer experience, it offers a gentle learning curve, allowing developers to get started quickly.
Automated Responsive Design
Components inherently possess responsive capabilities. Users can easily define style behaviors for different screen sizes using array or object syntax in props.
