Question 1

How do I add a templUI component to my Go project?

Accepted Answer

Use the templUI CLI to copy components into your project directory, then integrate them into your templ files. Refer to the quickstart repository for step-by-step guidance on setup and customization.

Question 2

templUI or shadcn/ui for building Go apps?

Accepted Answer

templUI is native to templ and Go, offering server-side rendering and code ownership, while shadcn/ui is React-based. Choose templUI for pure Go backends with templ, and shadcn/ui if you're using React on the frontend with a Go API.

Question 3

Does templUI support dark mode or themes out of the box?

Accepted Answer

No, templUI focuses on unstyled components with Tailwind CSS, so themes and dark mode require custom implementation using Tailwind's utility classes or additional CSS work.

Question 4

Can I use templUI without Tailwind CSS?

Accepted Answer

No, templUI components are built with Tailwind CSS classes, so using them necessitates a Tailwind setup. For other CSS frameworks, you'd need to rewrite the styles, which defeats the purpose of rapid integration.

Question 5

Is templUI suitable for large-scale enterprise applications?

Accepted Answer

It can be, but the manual component management and limited ecosystem might scale poorly without strict processes. Consider it for teams comfortable with customizing and maintaining their own component library.

Question 6

What happens if templUI updates its components?

Accepted Answer

You must manually copy the new versions into your codebase, which can be error-prone. It's recommended to review changes in the documentation or GitHub repository before integrating updates to avoid breaking your customizations.
