Its react-aria-components vs radix-ui, not shadcn. Radix UI is what powers shadcn and it is also focused on accessibility.

shadcn/ui uses Radix UI mostly, but it also uses components created by shadcn himself along with other ones like Sonner. The only main difference is that all of them are styled with Tailwind and have the same aesthetic.

@@joshtriedcoding I found your content maybe a week ago and I love how professional is your presentation of content

I've been using React Aria for nearly a year now and love it. The new RAC library is just awesome. Especially love the button component - as simple as it is.

We use RAC at work. And I must say it is far better than what we think. The integration with tailwind is just awesome

What everyone misses about this library is that is breaks everything down into hooks for interaction, state and accessibility. The components are awesome but if you need a component to act a different way in your design system it's hard in most UI libraries to alter it. This one gets around that issue by making so that you can build your own with their hooks and alter it in anyway with your own state. It's roll your own + use ours. Truly one of the best react specific libraries out there. Definitely needs better docs as they don't do it justice.

I think the contrast failure in PageSpeed Insights is a false positive. The error in PageSpeed Insights seem to be a runtime failure in axe-core: "axe-core Error: wf[r] is not a function." If you test the page within the browser using Lighthouse, aXe DevTools, or Accessibility Insights, all of which use axe-core under the hood, no contrast errors are reported.

probably because of performance,since all the styles are calculated at runtime

it's good? Not sure. I am honestly disappointed by it. But it's understandable for a v1.0.0. I've been using it in the past two weeks and I saw two big issues with it: 1. in a Nextjs 13/14 app server components, it loads the entire 40+ components even if you use only a simple button. In client components, it doesn't split correctly the modules per page. 2. The onPress even is pressing twice on mobile Android devices if you have a button under the button you press (using conditional rendering to render the 2nd button after the first one is pressed. This like a show/hide component).

Why did you mention not using styled-component 😢

to be honest, I had huge expectations from this lib, but when I wanted to use some of these components I found that it's not that easy to do it. Maybe it's just me, but the lack of well explained examples is a big issue here

Advantage is that someone spent hundreds/thousands of hours programming all UX, accessibility and workarounds for bugs on certain platforms like iOS Safari for example. They can also offer utilities for handling gestures which can be tricky for something like drag and drop maybe because that API sucks in HTML5. That way you don't have to think about that and can use a component that works great, but can apply your styles to it to align it with the "brand design" for example. I love this trend of unstyled components because it means I can stop re-inventing the wheel by re-implementing some common components each time I work on a new project, but can adapt the components to visually fit with the design of the app.

Nevermind, found the answer. For styled-components, the browser downloads the CSS first and then deduces it using javascript before inserting it into a page. This means a user must download all the javascript before opening the application, which hampers the performance of your application.

Why not styled components? Because they do not work server side? or because you have to import a another library? Would love to learn the reason :)

TL;DR Comment is super long, but please don't use styled-components on new projects. There are just better solutions out there these days. If you have to use it on an existing project, then just keep using them. I know I'm not Josh, but I can give my reasons why not to use SCs. They have a runtime cost because they run JS at runtime for their styles. This means there is an additional cost to run styled-components on user's machines and as far as I know can also invalidate a lot of work browsers do regarding optimizing and caching CSS. But don't quote me on that CSS browser engine stuff because that is really complicated. Now as far as server side rendering and react server components are considered, styled-components also complicate things there. css-in-js solutions that have a runtime cost are generally not recommended by the React team ever since public talk about React 18 were started. Those are objective reasons. Why inject your styles through JS when we have CSS files already that browsers can optimize and that we can cache independently of JS logic. Now for my subjective reasons, I think SCs have horrible DX. I've worked with styled-components about 6 months and personally it was the worst experience I had writing CSS and I've been working as a frontend dev roughly for 7 years now so I tried a decent number of CSS styling solutions so far. I worked with SCs about a year ago. With SCs, every little style needs to be a component. You need to center some text? Well create a component and add text-align: center. Oh you need to center an element? Create a component and add flex and items center to it. It's just exhausting that you cannot easily see styling and it took me a lot of effort to parse multiple styled components to wrap my head around what is actually going on in styles, especially if dynamic values were done through props. And don't even get me started on parsing styles in your head if there is inheritance involved where one component extends some other. I know some of the reason for this complexity was just many devs working on the project at the same time and you inevitably do end up with some spaghetti code, but some of it was just the API of the library. I did like the fact styles are scoped and also Typescript and autocomplete for all tokens we had in the design system. I think that was phenomenal, but everything else sucked, at least for me. Could you create a Flex component and use that when you need flex? Yes. Could you do it for a text-align center component? Yes, but it's tedious compared to writing div className="flex items-center". Using Tailwind for this example, but this could be some custom utility classes if you want that. Or even if you had a custom class here, you can just open a CSS file and look at style there without too much abstraction. If starting a new project, I wouldn't recommend styled-component just out of objective reasons listed in my comment and especially because of my experience with it, but I do know some people like using them. As with everything, someone will love using it, someone not. To be honest, if you want scoped styles in your components, just rather use CSS Modules with your design tokens defined as CSS variables and just write modern CSS like that. You will at least be writing regular CSS and not camelCase properties all the time and you will stick closer to "native" solution. If you don't mind Tailwind, just use that because that has a well defined API and onboarding devs is definitely easier for Tailwind compared to any custom CSS that is written either with vanilla CSS or something like styled-components. If you don't like Tailwind, just use CSS then with some good CSS methodology for structuring your CSS. Era of runtime css in js solutions is on the decline (which I think is good) and we have realized what mistake that actually was. There are better solutions out there so please explore them! Or just use native features and write vanilla CSS because native features always outlive abstractions such as SCs. I didn't jump heavily on the css in js hype train and I'm really happy about that because all projects I've worked on that use regular CSS or CSS Modules are just CSS in the end. Anyone can jump into them and if they know CSS can work on them. I also don't need to potentially rewrite them or refactor them to work with newer features like Nextjs App Router because they are just using regular old CSS. Many times, it's just better to stick with what's "boring" and tested and not just jump on every hype train. One less dependency to worry about in the end is also just nice. This comment was super long, but hopefully it gives you some perspective from a fellow dev.

Why not to use styled-component, can anyone provide some context for this?

There is just no reason to use styled-components anymore, at least not on new projects when there are better solutions. If you are using then on a big existing project, of course you aren't going to rewrite everything so just continue using them, but for new projects there are better options.
