## What it is
PrimeNG is a comprehensive open-source UI component library for Angular, offering dozens of feature-rich components such as data tables, dialogs, charts, and form controls with multiple theming options. The original GitHub repository has been archived, with active development continuing under the PrimeUI umbrella.

## Use cases
- build admin dashboards with data tables in Angular
- add charts and data visualization to an Angular app
- create styled dialogs, menus, and form components in Angular
- apply consistent theming across an Angular application
- find a complete Angular UI component suite
- build responsive web applications with prebuilt Angular components

## When to choose
- you are building an Angular application and need a large, mature set of UI components out of the box
- you want powerful data table and data grid functionality in Angular
- you need flexible theming (Aura, Material, Lara, Nora) and headless/styled component layers
- you are fine using the MIT-licensed releases, which remain available forever

## When to avoid
- you need active development, new features, or bug fixes - the repo is archived and development moved to PrimeUI (which may involve licensing)
- you are using React, Vue, or another framework instead of Angular
- you want a lightweight, minimal component set rather than a full suite
- you require a strictly MIT-licensed future version going forward

- function: ui-components, charts, templating, theme
