Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, react-jsonschema-form
provides support for several UI frameworks like Material-UI, Ant Design, and Bootstrap. However, it lacks support for Mantine UI, a popular, modern React component library that offers a range of customizable components and hooks. Developers who use Mantine UI in their projects do not have an easy way to leverage react-jsonschema-form
to render forms styled with Mantine components. This results in inconsistent UI experiences and the additional overhead of manually integrating Mantine components with react-jsonschema-form
.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see react-jsonschema-form
support Mantine UI out of the box. This would involve creating a new theme package or core library extension that utilizes Mantine's form components such as TextInput
, Select
, Checkbox
, Switch
, etc., and ties them into the form generation logic of react-jsonschema-form
. Ideally, this solution would:
- Provide wrappers for Mantine UI components that fit into the
react-jsonschema-form
widget system. - Offer seamless integration with existing Mantine themes and styles, allowing developers to maintain consistent design language across their applications.
- Ensure compatibility with Mantine's styling solution (e.g., styles and themes) and its utility hooks.
- Include comprehensive documentation and examples to help developers quickly integrate Mantine UI with
react-jsonschema-form
.
Describe alternatives you've considered
-
Custom Implementation: Manually wrapping Mantine components with custom widgets to use them within
react-jsonschema-form
. This approach is possible but requires significant effort, which can be repetitive across different projects. Moreover, it lacks the maintenance and updates provided by a core or officially supported package. -
Using Another Supported UI Library: Switching to another UI library that
react-jsonschema-form
already supports (e.g., Material-UI or Ant Design). However, this is not ideal for developers committed to using Mantine due to its design philosophy, component availability, or theming capabilities. -
Community-Maintained Package: Creating a community-maintained package that integrates Mantine UI with
react-jsonschema-form
. While this could work, it would lack the benefits of official support, and maintenance could become an issue over time.
Adding support for Mantine UI directly in react-jsonschema-form
would provide a better developer experience, reduce duplication of effort, and foster a more inclusive ecosystem that supports a wider range of popular UI libraries.
