A rather unfortunate name for a piece of software I must notice.

It can be also linked to something positive, e.g. "tremor of excitement"

Why you think they have greek roots? GitHub organization's location is set to Switzerland, and linked Twitter users are based in Switzerland, Austria and England. Of course, that doesn't say if there is greek roots or not, just wondering how you arrived at the conclusion.

If you want to quickly assess the quality of component libraries like these, especially in terms of accessibility, just take a quick look at their Select/Dropdown implementation.

Their variant breaks all keyboard navigation features and doesn't respond as expected to keyboard only input. If they want to up their game, they should address this before moving out of beta.

GP doesn't say anything about Greek roots?

Anyway, the footer of the website says "Built in Athens, Vienna and London." so there's definitely a link with Greece.

Looks nice. Only real issue I have with it is that it's not very extensible using tailwind classes for something that's built on tailwind

It seems like you have to install tailwind so you should be able to customize it with your own config. (Haven’t tried it though)

What I’m confused about is the change of the api from tailwind, the whole `maxWidth=“max-w-sm”` seems repetitive and a worse abstraction.

They definitely did, but the comment has been edited since then. This is why you always quote what you reply to, my bad :)

Thanks, I missed the footer of the page and just went by the GitHub page.

This looks really good! I'm definitely going to use it. I'm curious what the purpose of it is though.

It doesn't seem to be made purely out of the goodness of the creator's hearts, but it's not monetized in any way and I'm struggling to think about how it could be monetized.

At first I thought of the Tailwind model, but there are already ready-made blocks and components on their website for free.

The documentation is from another world .

Why is that? Looks like any other documentation for any other random library. What exactly stands out to you here? Great to see extensive documentation of course, but "from another world"? Might want to qualify that statement a bit at least :)
