HeroUI (formerly NextUI) is an open-source React UI component library built on Tailwind CSS v4 and React Aria Components, offering accessible, fully typed, customizable components for web, plus a React Native variant for mobile. It includes an official CLI, MCP packages for AI coding agents, and machine-readable documentation.

Use cases

  • build accessible react ui components
  • styled react component library with tailwind
  • react native ui component library
  • customize a design system in react
  • dark mode theming for react app
  • accessible forms and modals in react

When to choose

  • you want polished, accessible React components out of the box with Tailwind CSS v4
  • you need both web (React) and mobile (React Native) components from one ecosystem
  • you want fully typed APIs, tree-shaking, and deep component customization
  • you use AI coding assistants and want MCP/llms.txt documentation support

When to avoid

  • you need a headless/unstyled primitives library rather than pre-styled components
  • your project uses Tailwind v3 or React versions older than 19 without migration effort
  • you prefer copy-paste component sources (e.g., shadcn/ui style) over a maintained dependency
  • you need frameworks other than React/React Native
