Final Thoughts
I think this project will glorify web developers specially from field of react can build Windows design system hybrid or native apps with ease. It provides a responsive design flow to support a broad field of devices.

I'm really sorry, this already exists: github.com/microsoft/fluentui :(
Hey! Don't you think saying such things is demotivating? Many (mainly beginners) programmers won't do side-projects because of thinking "it already exists so why should I do it?". Meanwhile, we have multiple applications for listening to music, web browsers, games even frameworks and libraries doing basically the same things. And developers of them didn't think "don't do this new music app, there are plenty of such in the market".
The best approach is: I know there are many things like my project but how can I make mine better than others? What can I improve, do in a different way? Innovative?
Do not kill creativity!
I visited this repo and I liked the interface but what i think is our react-windows-ui follows different approach isn't it? and one more thing @myzel394 i've seen that codepen snack and i like to implement it in my project thanks for the suggestion :)
Yes you are correct. I didn't really look at the fluent UI design repo - it is indeed different from yours. Thanks for your effort :)
Thanks for your support @myzel394 :)
BTW what browsers are you targeting? Thought about making a pr for thir feature with css variables.
Ps: I think you should add you eslintcache to gitignore
I specially test chrome ,opera and mozilla before publishing the package , i am using .eslintcache for pushing the gh-pages branch ...
You can try the demo on any browser expect IE. if you find any bug please ping me from an issue.
I think the feature with css you said have been linked with this.

Damn :(
Great UI library! Do make sure to post about it on Reddit.
Thankyou soo much @ceoshikhar for you suggestion, surely i'll consider this 😊
Hey Vivek!
This looks awesome! There's a very similar project I just want you to know about - react-uwp.com
Hey Rashil ,
Thanks for sharing this link I checked this project the best part is i loved the hover effect they used in their project :)
Thanks for your Support!
Yes, it's pretty sweet, and it was the only Fluent-like library when I was developing my project DYSTuss. Check it out, it's fully responsive and very much like Windows 10.
Now whenever I develop a new project, I'll make sure to check out your library first.
Hey Rashil,
I visited your project and was pretty awesome for introvert like me to do stuff anonymously, I feel blessed if you use react-windows-ui in your project :)
Thankyou for your support.
This looks stunning. I have spread the words, hope you get a deserved recognition :)
Hey @khangnd ,
