About Base UI
Base UI gives React teams unstyled components for building accessible interfaces and design systems, without prescribing how the finished UI should look. Its composable parts let teams supply their own styling while using prebuilt interaction and accessibility behavior.

Key Features
Teams choose the components they need and provide the visual layer themselves. The library covers everyday controls as well as more involved menus and popups:
Styling freedom
Add your own visuals with Tailwind, CSS Modules, CSS-in-JS, or plain CSS; Base UI bundles no CSS.
Composable components
Assemble and customize component parts to match your design system.
Search and selection
Use Combobox and Autocomplete for interactive options and text entry.
Menus and dialogs
Build popups with behaviors such as nested dialogs and hover-triggered menus.
Worth Knowing
Check framework compatibility before adopting it:
- React-only: Base UI supports React 17 and newer; it is not a cross-framework component library. [1]
Who It's For
Best for design-system teams, React frontend engineers, and product teams building custom-styled web apps.
Not a fit for teams building with Vue, Svelte, Angular, or without React: Base UI is a React library. [1]
