The best Tailwind CSS component kits (2024)

Tailwind CSS has a huge impact in the world of web development and one of the reasons is the huge amount of Tailwind component kits. Many Tailwind UI kits have been specifically created for different purposes, from app dashboards to marketing sites. In this article, I'll go through ten notable Tailwind CSS UI kits.

We'll be diving into their components, compatibility with frameworks, and if the kits offer just components or also entire templates.

Flowbite

Flowbite is a comprehensive UI component kit based on Tailwind CSS. They have an open-sourced free library, as well as a pro version for developers and designers. It offers extensive support for many major frameworks such as React, Vue.js, and Angular.

One standout feature of Flowbite is its Figma library, helping developers and designers collaborate with much more ease. If you need a good component kit for your project, especially when you're working with a designer or working on a big project, Flowbite is a great choice!

It also offers a selection of customizable themes with preconfigured color schemes. Last but not least, they have the option to minimize the amount of Tailwind classes significantly by grouping them, much like bootstrap does (unfortunately it won't be compatible with Tailscan, though).
