Evergreen looks quite nice, but their website isn't responsive and that gives me pause when considering it for my own projects. The components themselves may work fine, but I can't be sure without digging in further. Just something to consider if you're looking at using Evergreen.

This list was posted a few weeks ago, but here is a fairly definitive list of similar UI frameworks: https://element.eleme.io/ https://ant.design/ https://quasar-framework.org/ https://at-ui.github.io/at-ui/ https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric https://vmware.github.io/clarity/ http://appnexus.github.io/lucid/ https://ng-lightning.github.io/ng-lightning/ https://blueprintjs.com/ http://www.jetbrains.org/ring-…

https://grommet.io/ is awesome too.

I've wondered about React, although I haven't used it myself. I know that the new Reddit was written using React components, and it's very slow. Is that a React problem (i.e. is it hard to write fast web apps) or is it a Reddit problem (or both)?

We've been happy with http://react.semantic-ui.com/ so far.

I liked Semantic-UI a lot in terms of looks, but the React aspect of it is separate, so even though it's done by the same people as the core team, it inherently always lags behind a bit in feature completeness. I especially ran into this with transitions and animations, and migrated to Blueprint.js instead, which I was extremely happy with from a feature-completeness perspective, but which I couldn't figure out how to theme.

So far, I'm aware of Material-UI, Grommet, Bootstrap, and this for React. Are there others worth knowing about? This looks good, though it also feels like it leans towards native controls; see Select vs. Select Menu, for instance. Material and Grommet have a unified style thing going on that this doesn't seem to. But this has more controls and seems more mature.

React is fast. If you are not experienced in react you'll make a mess because they work against its principles.

To me the Reddit web app is fast, the show part I think is the server side.

The question is: how many of these will be maintained several years later? Can you build a long term project on these? Or the expectation is that one has to make a new UI anyway every several years to keep up with the changing fashion, so rewrites are inevitable?

If you pick one made by a big company, it should be fine.
