One thing you get for free moving to Base UI from Radix is speed. I benchmarked the areas that most affect perf (opening a dialog on a big page, mounting lots of selects, opening big menus, sweeping over menu items etc.) In each of the six scenarios, Base UI was the fastest.
Starting today, we are making @base_ui the default component library in shadcn/ui. First, a bit of history. When shadcn/ui launched in 2023, it was built on Radix. At the time, nothing else came close. Headless. Accessible. Composable. Fast forward a few years and the team who built Radix are building something new: Base UI.

Whether it's a Slider, Menu, or Data Grid, Base UI will always elevate the UX and unlock the craft.

Huge moment for Base UI. 2.5 years of extremely hard work from a small, obsessive team. shadcn/ui has shaped how a generation builds React apps. Now, we have a chance to raise both the floor and the ceiling for UI quality across the web. Excited to see how far we can take it.

designing a color system with adhd: - you learn orange/red is called vermillion - spend 30 mins down that rabbit hole - remember vermillion by slipknot and put it on - notice 17,362 a11y issues in spotify - spend 4 hours exploring ways to solve them in base ui - close laptop

Today we're releasing a new set of components for building chat interfaces. We've taken the patterns we build every day, rethought the abstractions behind them, and turned them into components you can compose and customize. We're starting with the conversation layer: streaming, scrolling, messages, bubbles, attachments, and markers.
