ReactShadow (npm: react-shadow) is a small React library for creating Shadow DOM roots declaratively via components like root.div, giving full style encapsulation within React apps. It supports styled-components and emotion integration so their styles are scoped to the shadow boundary.

Use cases

  • encapsulate styles in react components with shadow dom
  • prevent css leaking between react components
  • use styled-components inside shadow dom
  • build isolated embeddable react widgets
  • scope css to a component boundary in react

When to choose

  • you need true style isolation in a React app
  • you're building embeddable widgets that must not clash with host page CSS
  • you want declarative Shadow DOM without leaving JSX

When to avoid

  • you only need CSS modules or scoped class names rather than real encapsulation
  • your app must support very old browsers without Shadow DOM
  • you don't use React
