## What it is
Boron is a React component library providing a collection of animated modal dialogs. It offers several modal styles (e.g., DropModal) with configurable backdrop, keyboard, and callback behavior.

## Use cases
- show animated modal dialogs in a react app
- add a drop-in modal component with backdrop to react
- close modal on escape key or backdrop click in react
- customize modal and backdrop styles via css props
- get callback when modal is hidden and why

## When to choose
- you are on React 0.12-0.14 era and need simple animated modals
- you want a lightweight modal with show/hide/toggle methods and hide-source callbacks

## When to avoid
- you use modern React (16+) since the library targets React 0.12-0.14 and is unmaintained
- you need accessible, actively maintained modal solutions
- you need features like portals, focus trapping, or SSR support

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: browser
