## What it is
Orbit is Kiwi.com's open-source design system, with this repo providing its React component library (@kiwicom/orbit-components). It offers themed, accessible UI components built with styled-components for building consistent web products.

## Use cases
- build consistent react ui components
- implement a design system in react
- theme a react app with a design token system
- find accessible react components styled with styled-components
- quickly prototype web ui with prebuilt components

## When to choose
- you want a mature, themed React component library with design tokens
- you're building Kiwi.com-style products or like its design language
- you need styled-components-based components with theming via OrbitProvider

## When to avoid
- you need a headless/unstyled component library
- your project doesn't use React or styled-components
- you want a framework-agnostic web components solution

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: ui-components, frontend-framework, theme
- domain: web-development, frontend, web-design, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: design-system, react-components, styled-components, typescript, storybook, kiwicom, web-server, nodejs
