Chakra

Chakra is a modern, accessible, and modular React component library designed for building user interfaces quickly and efficiently. It provides a set of customizable, composable components with built-in accessibility features and a theming system based on design tokens. It emphasizes developer experience with features like style props and a responsive design system out of the box.

Also known as: Chakra UI, Chakra-UI, ChakraUI, Chakra Framework, Chakra React

Why learn Chakra?

Developers should learn Chakra when building React applications that require fast UI development with consistent design and strong accessibility standards, such as dashboards, admin panels, or consumer-facing web apps. It is particularly useful for teams needing a design system without extensive custom CSS, as it reduces boilerplate and ensures WCAG compliance.
