A component library for Tailwind CSS that adds semantic class names like btn and card, so you write less utility-class soup.

Why we recommend it
Tailwind's main complaint is markup bloated with twenty utility classes per element. daisyUI adds a component layer on top without leaving Tailwind, and unlike most component kits it is pure CSS — no JavaScript framework lock-in, so it works with React, Vue, Svelte or plain HTML.
Strengths
- Framework-agnostic because it ships only CSS. Excellent built-in theming, with dozens of ready themes and a straightforward way to define your own. Very actively maintained — roughly 42,000 GitHub stars and commits landing daily.
Keep in mind
- Being CSS-only means no behaviour: dropdowns, modals and comboboxes need your own JavaScript or another library, which surprises people expecting a full component kit. Accessibility is only as good as the markup you write around it — there are no built-in ARIA behaviours like Radix provides. Sites built with default themes tend to look recognisably like daisyUI.
