MaterialUI? Is it shit?

A brand new code base. Old codebase (old employees) used MaterialUI, locking in a lot of the styling and layout in their grids.

I'm trying to identify the pros/cons that can come from experience using the framework.

Some questions to spark discussion:

Anyone used this in production for a period of time?

Did it hold up? Did the designers hate it?

How was mixing this with SASS etc.

Cheers

question

react

materialui

poke a hole in it

    @moghir2004 Just want to clarify.

    Is this a knock on React in general? Or is a knock on the materialUI React package?

    I’m certainly leaning toward just using a material CSS (SASS on our side).

    React however, is the devil we are going to be dancing with in this situation. I’m pretty ok with it.

    Material Ui is pretty heavy library every component you import adds up to it. I would advise you to use it wisely.

    MaterializeCSS is pretty great CSS only alternative.

    But be careful with materializeCSS, i got issue with dynamics forms, particulary with select.. for the rest it does the job well.
    @makarand it's not css only, a js file and jquery are needed i think

    Yeah for some special items like date picker or model. For everything else its css only.
