What UI components would you like to see in a component library?

Hi everyone,
I'm currently developing a UI component library that will be available for all major frameworks (React, Vue, Angular etc), and using the latest Web Component technology.

I've developed over 30 components, but am just wondering what UI components you find most useful when developing your forms and websites. Or if there is a particular component you'd like to be included in a library, be sure to let me know below.

I'd love to have your thoughts on this, it would mean a lot! Thanks so much! :D

    Flowbite https://flowbite.com/#components and DaisyUI https://daisyui.com/components/ have a nice set of components. They are a nice start.

    I would want unstyled option with the ability to paste in Tailwind classes easily to a config file.

    For me personally, forms are where I always seem to lose my momentum when designing. They're the ultimate decision fatigue - underline input only? Round inputs? sSquare inputs? Dropdown or multi-select? real-time validation or only on submission?

    Best practices are probably largely the same for forms across different types of products, so it's almost like I'd rather have something more pre-built so that I don't have to make all of those decisions for a set of components that often don't need to be customized too much.

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts, it's much appreciated! I definitely feel the same when creating forms. Usually I'd just prefer to have a pre-built solution right out-of-the-box so that I can integrate it into my website quickly rather than worry about the design aspects of each individual form input haha
