Requires a React project already configured with StyleX, components are added individually via the registry rather than a package install.

in plain english

This is a collection of React user interface components built to work with StyleX, a CSS-in-JavaScript styling system. The core idea is borrowed from the approach popularized by shadcn/ui: rather than installing a component library as a package that you import and cannot easily change, you copy the source code of each component you need directly into your own project. Once the code is in your project, it is yours to read and modify freely. The components are built on two underlying technologies. StyleX handles the visual styling, and Base UI handles the accessible behavior, meaning components like dialogs, menus, and form inputs follow accessibility standards from the start. The combination gives teams a starting point for a design system they control entirely, without being tied to the decisions of an external library. The library covers the common categories a web application needs: layout components (Box, Stack, Grid, Container), form inputs (Button, Input, Select, Checkbox, Switch), overlay elements (Dialog, Drawer, Popover, Tooltip), navigation patterns (Tabs, Accordion, Breadcrumb), and display components (Avatar, Badge, Card, Alert, Skeleton). Components are described as type-safe, responsive by default, and available with theming support. The distribution model is called registry-first. Components are added to your project individually through a registry rather than as a single bulk package install. This lets teams add only what they need, allows them to modify implementations freely, and prevents the project from depending on a library version they do not control. The README describes this as a way to scale a design system across multiple products without vendor lock-in.

prompt 1
How do I add a Dialog component from Blenx UI to my React and StyleX project using the registry-first approach?
prompt 2
Show me how to customize the Button component from Blenx UI after copying it into my project: change its color tokens and add a loading state.
prompt 3
I'm building a design system with Blenx UI and StyleX. Walk me through setting up theming so light and dark mode tokens work across all components.
prompt 4
Help me create a page layout in React using Blenx UI's Box, Stack, and Grid components with StyleX styling.
prompt 5
Compare Blenx UI's copy-and-own model to installing shadcn/ui. When would I pick one over the other for a TypeScript React project?
