- Ease of Styling: Chakra UI contains a set of layout components like
BoxandStackthat make it easy to style your components by passing props. Learn more - Flexible & composable: Chakra UI components are built on top of a React UI Primitive for endless composability.
- Accessible. Chakra UI components follow the WAI-ARIA guidelines specifications
and have the right
aria-*attributes. - Dark Mode 😍: Most components in Chakra UI are dark mode compatible.
To use Chakra UI components, all you need to do is install the
@chakra-ui/react package and its peer dependencies:
# with Yarn
$ yarn add @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react@^11 @emotion/styled@^11 framer-motion@^6
# with npm
$ npm i @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react@^11 @emotion/styled@^11 framer-motion@^6
# with pnpm
$ pnpm add @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react@^11 @emotion/styled@^11 framer-motion@^6
# with Bun
$ bun add @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react@^11 @emotion/styled@^11 framer-motion@^6To start using the components, please follow these steps:
- Wrap your application with the
ChakraProviderprovided by @chakra-ui/react.
import { ChakraProvider } from "@chakra-ui/react"
// Do this at the root of your application
function App({ children }) {
return <ChakraProvider>{children}</ChakraProvider>
}Optionally, you can wrap your application with the ColorModeProvider so you
can toggle between light and dark mode within your app.
- Now you can start using components like so!:
import { Button } from "@chakra-ui/react"
function Example() {
return <Button>I just consumed some ⚡️Chakra!</Button>

People throw React component libraries and design systems at me regularly. This might be the best one I've seen. The APIs are simple but composable and the accessibility on the couple components I looked is complete.
