Key Takeaways

Complete guide to building beautiful UI with Chakra UI. Covers Components, Theming, Dark Mode, accessibility, and TypeScript with practical examples.

Real-World Experience: Sharing experience of adopting Chakra UI, where UI development speed improved 3x and accessibility was automatically guaranteed.

Introduction: “UI Development is Slow”

Real-World Problem Scenarios

Scenario 1: Need to build components from scratch
Takes too long. Chakra UI provides 50+ components. Scenario 2: Can’t consider accessibility
Manual implementation is difficult. Chakra UI guarantees it automatically. Scenario 3: Need dark mode
Direct implementation is complex. Chakra UI has it built-in.

1. What is Chakra UI?

Core Features

Chakra UI is a React component library. Key Advantages:

  • 50+ Components: Ready to use
  • Accessibility: WAI-ARIA compliant
  • Theming: Full customization
  • Dark Mode: Built-in
  • TypeScript: Perfect support

2. Installation and Setup

Installation

npm install @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react @emotion/styled framer-motion

Provider Setup

import { ChakraProvider } from '@chakra-ui/react';
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
  return (
    <ChakraProvider>
      <Component {...pageProps} />
    </ChakraProvider>
  );
}

3. Basic Components

import { Button, Box, Text, Heading, Stack } from '@chakra-ui/react';
export default function Home() {
  return (
    <Box p={8}>
      <Heading mb={4}>Welcome to Chakra UI</Heading>
      <Text mb={4}>Build accessible React apps with speed</Text>
      <Stack direction="row" spacing={4}>
        <Button colorScheme="blue">Primary</Button>
        <Button colorScheme="green">Secondary</Button>
        <Button variant="outline">Outline</Button>
      </Stack>
    </Box>
  );
}

4. Layout

import { Box, Flex, Grid, GridItem, Container, Stack } from '@chakra-ui/react';
export default function Layout() {
  return (
    <Container maxW="container.xl">
      <Flex justify="space-between" align="center" mb={8}>
        <Box>Logo</Box>
        <Stack direction="row" spacing={4}>
          <Box>Home</Box>
          <Box>About</Box>
        </Stack>
      </Flex>
      <Grid templateColumns="repeat(3, 1fr)" gap={6}>
        <GridItem>Card 1</GridItem>
        <GridItem>Card 2</GridItem>
        <GridItem>Card 3</GridItem>
      </Grid>
    </Container>
  );
}

5. Form

import {
  FormControl,
  FormLabel,
  FormErrorMessage,
  Input,
  Button,
  VStack,
} from '@chakra-ui/react';
import { useForm } from 'react-hook-form';
interface FormData {
  email: string;
  password: string;
}
export default function LoginForm() {
  const { register, handleSubmit, formState: { errors } } = useForm<FormData>();
  const onSubmit = (data: FormData) => {
    console.log(data);
  };
  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <VStack spacing={4}>
        <FormControl isInvalid={!!errors.email}>
          <FormLabel>Email</FormLabel>
          <Input {...register('email', { required: 'Email is required' })} />
          <FormErrorMessage>{errors.email?.message}</FormErrorMessage>
        </FormControl>
        <FormControl isInvalid={!!errors.password}>
          <FormLabel>Password</FormLabel>
          <Input
            type="password"
            {...register('password', { required: 'Password is required' })}
          />
          <FormErrorMessage>{errors.password?.message}</FormErrorMessage>
        </FormControl>
        <Button type="submit" colorScheme="blue" width="full">
          Submit
        </Button>
      </VStack>
    </form>
  );
}

6. Theming

import { extendTheme, ChakraProvider } from '@chakra-ui/react';
const theme = extendTheme({
  colors: {
    brand: {
      50: '#e3f2fd',
      100: '#bbdefb',
      500: '#2196f3',
      900: '#0d47a1',
    },
  },
  fonts: {
    heading: 'Georgia, serif',
    body: 'Arial, sans-serif',
  },
  components: {
    Button: {
      baseStyle: {
        fontWeight: 'bold',
      },
      variants: {
        solid: {
          bg: 'brand.500',
          color: 'white',
        },
      },
    },
  },
});
export default function App() {
  return (
    <ChakraProvider theme={theme}>
      {/* Components */}
    </ChakraProvider>
  );
}

7. Dark Mode

import { Button, useColorMode, useColorModeValue } from '@chakra-ui/react';
export default function DarkModeToggle() {
  const { colorMode, toggleColorMode } = useColorMode();
  const bg = useColorModeValue('white', 'gray.800');
  const color = useColorModeValue('black', 'white');
  return (
    <Box bg={bg} color={color} p={8}>
      <Button onClick={toggleColorMode}>
        Toggle {colorMode === 'light' ? 'Dark' : 'Light'}
      </Button>
    </Box>
  );
}

8. Responsive

import { Box, Text } from '@chakra-ui/react';
export default function Responsive() {
  return (
    <Box
      width={{ base: '100%', md: '50%', lg: '25%' }}
      p={{ base: 4, md: 6, lg: 8 }}
    >
      <Text fontSize={{ base: 'md', md: 'lg', lg: 'xl' }}>
        Responsive Text
      </Text>
    </Box>
  );
}
