## What it is
A collection of over 25 standalone Stimulus controllers (published as individual npm packages) that provide common frontend behaviors like clipboard copy, dropdowns, carousels, and form auto-submit. The controllers are UI-agnostic, battle-tested, well-documented, and designed to be extended via inheritance.

## Use cases
- add copy-to-clipboard button to my rails app
- select all checkboxes with one click
- auto-submit forms when a field changes
- render chart.js charts with stimulus
- count characters in a textarea with countdown
- add a carousel to my server-rendered site
- toggle password visibility in a form
- animate a number counting up when scrolled into view

## When to choose
- you use Stimulus with Rails or Hotwire and need common interactive behaviors without writing controllers yourself
- you want unstyled, UI-agnostic components that work with any CSS framework
- you prefer small, individually installable packages over a monolithic component library
- you want controllers you can subclass and customize

## When to avoid
- you use React, Vue, or another SPA framework instead of Stimulus
- you need fully styled, ready-made UI components out of the box
- you don't use a build tool or import maps compatible with npm packages
