Radix has some great ideas that challenge the way components are usually built. I'd love to use it, but am somewhat burned by how Stitches stopped being maintained due to the changes in React 18. Context: https://github.com/stitchesjs/stitches/discussions/1149#disc...

To be clear, it's not so much that they decided to not spend time, energy and money into maintaining it, but that there's seemingly been very little (if any) interest in letting others maintain it despite several people expressing interest. I'm sure it's scare handing over commit access, but if you're giving it up anyway then why not just do it, see what happens? Instead it's just dead in the water.

I'd happily pay license fees to use Radix and/or Stitches, if that guarantees maintenance. Sadly that's not an option it seems.




is Radix so tied with Stitches? that would be a bummer. I'd rather not tie myself to (another) CSS-in-js solution, both because RSC are looming and because I don't want to pay a runtime cost to apply CSS classes


It's maintained by the same people, and the problem isn't so much whether there's a hard dependency on Stitches, but the way they've essentiellt swept the rug under the feet from anyone using Stitches leaves a bad taste in my mouth and makes me hesitant to use Radix.
