What is daisyUI?

daisyUI is a free, open-source plugin for Tailwind CSS that adds ready-made component classes such as buttons, cards, modals and menus. It works with any framework, includes dozens of built-in themes you can switch or customise, and keeps your markup much shorter than raw utility classes.

Pros: what daisyUI does well

  • Shorter, cleaner markup
  • Many themes out of the box
  • Works with any framework

Cons: where it falls short

  • Requires Tailwind CSS
  • Less flexible than hand-built components

Who daisyUI is for

Developers who use Tailwind CSS and want ready components without heavy JavaScript.

Who can skip it

People who do not build websites or use a different CSS approach.
