Best UI LIbrary for your next React Native App

I had built multiple apps in React Native for my personal as well as Freelancing projects. I had also tried many UI libraries for React native, to get started fast and for consistent UI.

I had checked UI Kitten after some time but after I had used
UI kitten, I became a fan of this library. It has most of the components you will need, for example, Input, Card, Button, etc. It also supports the Light and Dark theme. It is the library that has its Icon Module and all the Icons are awesome. The app looks good in both the light theme and dark theme.

To create a new React Native app using Kitten UI, you just need to run the below command, it will create a new React Native app with the UI kitten as the template

npx react-native init MyApp --template @ui-kitten/template-js
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In the next post, I will try to explain, how to add UI-kitten to an already created project.

“It is the library that has its Icon Module” huh? All the popular ui frameworks have an icon module and most/all support the major font icon libraries. Basically you could swap ui-kitten for any of the other frameworks and this article would have the same meaning. Why is it the “best” for your next project other than “all the icons are awesome”
