Top 5 UI Libraries for React in 2026

Component Libraries Save Time

1. Shadcn UI

Shadcn isn't a traditional library you install via npm. You copy and paste the code directly into your project. This gives you complete ownership and customizability over the components.

2. Radix UI

Radix provides unstyled, accessible "primitives". You use them to build your own design system without worrying about complex WAI-ARIA accessibility standards.

3. Mantine

A massive library with hundreds of hooks and components. If you need to build a complex dashboard rapidly, Mantine is unbeatable.
