Introduction
Beautiful React Native components. Copy. Paste. Ship.
AniUI is a collection of 89 re-usable components for React Native, built with NativeWind or Uniwind (Tailwind CSS for React Native), rn-primitives for accessibility, and strict TypeScript. Inspired by shadcn/ui, these are not installed as npm dependencies — they are source files you copy into your project and own completely.
Architecture#
┌─ AniUI Design Layer (NativeWind or Uniwind styling)
├─ rn-primitives (headless behaviour + accessibility)
└─ React Native Core (View, Text, Pressable)
Why AniUI?#
- You own the code. Components are source files, not black-box packages.
- NativeWind + Uniwind. Tailwind CSS classes — choose your styling engine. No StyleSheet.create() anywhere.
- rn-primitives for complex components. Dialog, Popover, Select, DropdownMenu get proper focus trapping, positioning, and ARIA semantics.
- Mobile-first. Built for iOS and Android. Period.
- Accessible. Every interactive component has proper accessibility roles, keyboard navigation, and screen reader support.
- Dark mode. CSS variable-based theming works out of the box.
- One command setup.
