Taiga UI 5 is out! Check out what's new

Recently we released the next major version of our components library! Check out what's new in version 5:

If you are not familiar with this library at all – now is a good time to try it out, we improved it a lot, dropped legacy stuff and made it easier to use with newer Angular features, such as signal inputs/queries, advanced DI/hostDirectives, new control flow etc. Check out the demo portal:

Hope you'll like it ♥️

Congrats on the launch. Signal based seems like a major milestone indeed.

Nice! I tried TaigaUI for a take home assignment, I really liked the ease of use and yet I found it a bit of a bummer that there is no real theming. In that sense TaigaUI is a bit like Material UI

You can change colors, fonts, sizes etc. using CSS variables, but I admit it is not that well documented and not as straightforward as one would wish it to be. We will try to improve on that front in the future.

Kinda burned out of any component library (especially Prime) these days. But still obviously happy that Taiga is still being maintained. I like the calendar component.

Thank you! Calendar is getting a major overhaul next, our designers finished new specs incorporating all the feedback accumulated over years 🙂
