## What it is
ZUI 3 is an open-source HTML5 front-end UI component library offering rich CSS utility classes (built on Tailwind CSS) and powerful JavaScript components built with Preact. It is framework-agnostic, usable natively in any web application via ESM imports or direct browser script tags, with flexible theming through CSS variables and dark mode support.

## Use cases
- build responsive web UIs with prebuilt components
- add dark mode and custom themes to a web app
- use CSS utility classes without a JS framework
- add dropdowns, tooltips, dialogs, and data tables to a website
- create a themed component library for an internal web application
- style forms, navigation, cards, and tables quickly

## When to choose
- you want a framework-agnostic UI library usable in any web app
- you need both CSS utility classes and interactive JS components
- you want flexible theming with CSS variables and dark mode
- you prefer on-demand loading and customizable bundled builds

## When to avoid
- you are committed to a framework-specific ecosystem like React or Vue with its own component libraries
- you need a full application framework rather than a UI component library
- you require a very large community ecosystem and third-party plugins
