Introduction

corvu is a collection of open source UI primitives for SolidJS that are unstyled, accessible and aim to be highly customizable while providing a delightful developer experience.

FeaturesSection titled Features

UnstyledSection titled Unstyled

Primitives do not provide any styling, allowing you to bring your own and style them according to your preferences or style guidelines. You can use Tailwind CSS, any CSS-in-JS library or plain old CSS to style it. We provide plugins for TailwindCSS and UnoCSS that make it easy to style components based on their current state. Read more in Styling.

UnopinionatedSection titled Unopinionated

corvu allows you to customize almost every aspect of all primitives while providing great defaults. There is an API section for every primitive describing all the available props and their default values. Read more in State.

corvu also provides a set of utilities like createFocusTrap, createPreventScroll and createPresence that can be used to build your own accessible primitives.

AccessibleSection titled Accessible

All primitives have been developed with accessibility in mind. They strictly adhere to the WAI-ARIA guidelines and take care of all the complex stuff like aria attributes, focus management and keyboard interactions. The documentation describes the accessibility features implemented for each primitive and how to change them according to your needs.

SSRSection titled SSR

corvu provides a solid export for SSR and works out of the box with SolidStart.
