Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!

In plain words

Performative-UI is a React component library that implements design tropes commonly found in user interfaces. It provides developers with pre-built components based on familiar design patterns, making it easier to construct interfaces that follow established conventions. The library is designed for developers building React applications who want to leverage standardized UI patterns and components in their projects.

    I made this because building UIs in a lexical medium like code is super annoying. I have to pre-render what I’m making in my head, and then jump between the browser and IDE to test. I was inspired by the developer console in chrome and safari since I end up editing css there because it’s ironically more convenient. Hope it’s useful!

    Looking at websites such as Clerk, I began thinking that design engineers might be some kind of wizards. I wanted to understand how they do it, so I started reverse-engineering their components out of curiosity.

I’d love to hear your feedback

    Hey Hackers! My name is Alex and I’ve been working on this project for the past 8 months with the support of Figma Creator Fund. I’d love to hear your thoughts from your experience working with designers & component libraries. I started out in design and later got into coding, so I understand both sides really well. I did UX Design for 12 years at startups, at my own studio and at Wix, and then worked as a front-end dev at Wix for 2 more years. I've noticed a common problem: most component libraries work great for devs but not so well for designers. In my experience working with big teams,…
