SvelteKit UI Libraries

SvelteKit is a refreshing framework and by far the most fun one to work with. My only gripe is that the community is young so it's not as fleshed out as React/Next.js.

With that, the styling/UI libraries are catching up and there's a bunch of cool ones that I've seen. So here's my top 3!

  1. SkeletonUI - This library just works! Integrates seamlessly and offers so much out of the box.

  2. Shadcn - Really nice styling and there's an unofficial port that is pretty good but the quickstart didn't work last time I tried so I just went back to SkeletonUI.

  3. Bits UI - A younger but growing library. Simplifies Melt UI into a more traditional component library.

All in all, you can't go wrong with either but I prefer Skeleton UI. It was what I used to bring my boilerplate to life and with V3 around the corner I can't wait to see how the library grows!

Thanks for sharing. You should provide more info and maybe some screenshots. How do these compare? What are the criteria to pick one of the options?
