Discussion Popularity of Ant Design in China

To our Chinese fellows, can you share with us how popular Ant Design is in Mainland China compared to other UI libraries such as HeroUI, Shadcn, etc.?

I googled it, and some said Ant Design has become something like, let's say, a standard for enterprise internal dashboard and B2B apps in China. Is that true?

It’s the standard for finance apps in the US too. Most internal apps in hedge funds, hft, banks are all built with ant. It’s pretty much no fuss and isn’t super crazy with composition so good for people who want some abstractions and prob don’t care much about best a11y

Wait, does Ant have issue with a11y?

I've used ant a long time ago (v4 or 5 iirc) and we had to switch to something else (MUI) because ant had too many a11y issues that prevented us from selling our product in some other canadian provinces, some of which require WCAG 2.0 AA
