How about posting link to frameworks only when they release a significant new version?
Uikit – A lightweight and modular front-end framework

I dunno. A different domain would be like if I called my new bluegrass band, Uikit. This name does sort of confuse. Although I don't know how more generic you can get then, "User Interface Kit", although the capitalization of Uikit is a little awkward.
Not that generic – Apple uses "kit" as a suffix for most of their frameworks, and I don't know any other large frameworks that do that (could be wrong on this, of course, but it does seem an "Apple thing" at this point).
I can think of 2 much older examples of 'kit', as a part of toolkit, in a UI framework name:
* GTK
* Tk of Perl/Tk

#23I'll probably skip on UiKit. In a cursory, five-minute tryout of various components I found three errors (using latest Chrome on OSX, version 54.0.2840.98).
Here's a description of the problems I found: http://imgur.com/a/XSo5T
The point here isn't to nitpick. But I've found three problems after the most basic review. That doesn't give me much confidence in quality of the codebase. If I commit to using this in a large project, spending 40+ hours with UiKit, how many more problems will I find? (And, ultimately have to fix).

NeXTSTEP (macOS and iOS's predecessor) predates Tk's the use of the term kit by 3 years and GTK's by almost 10.
