UI components Reviving
On TutorHero's Everything Index, UI components is reviving on GitHub: 0.25 of every 10,000 new public repos over the last three months (237 a month), +59% vs a year ago. The 12-month forecast says edging up (+16%). By the end of 2032, lines in the same state ended between 0.28x and 4.8x of where they started (median 0.82x).
Since 2019, and the range to 2032
New repos per 10,000 (3-month average, log scale)12-month forecastRange to 2032: middle half and 90% of past similar lines
The range is not a forecast of this line: it is what GitHub lines in the same state (grew its share 15% to 100% in a year) did 1 to 5 years later, 2019 to 2026, applied to today's level. Past 5 years it is stretched, not measured. Checked out of time (learned before 2022, scored after), 71% of outcomes landed inside the 90% range, so read it as wide. Open it in the Everything chart.
Week by week
New public repos with the ui-components tag each week (Monday to Sunday, UTC). The outlined bars, last week included, are still filling in, as tags are often added days after a repo is created, so their height will grow a little. "Against the field" divides the change by what the typical tag did, so a wave that lifts every tag does not count. Hover for the numbers.
Built vs talked about
Each line is its own share (of all new GitHub repos, all Hacker News stories, all English Wikipedia views, all new stars on the repos we track), shown as a share of its own peak, so the timing and shape compare even though the units differ. Hover for the counts. Tap a name to hide or show a line.
What it means
- Worth learning now: UI components is reviving, +59% share of new GitHub repos vs a year ago.
- Start by reading DavidHDev/react-bits (+1.9k stars in 3 months) and MengTo/threeui (+1.5k stars in 3 months).
- People to follow: Gradio, Lucide, Radix.
- Getting crowded: new repos +59% but attention -68%, so each new project competes harder for stars.
- 12.6 new stars per new repo over 3 months, vs 8.50 for the typical trend: more demand per project than most fields.
- The 12-month forecast for its share: +16% (Edging up).
- History: of past GitHub lines that grew its share 15% to 100% in a year, 49% had a smaller share 3 to 5 years later and 13% at least doubled.
- Attention: 0.45% of new stars on the repos we track, -68% in a year.
- Hacker News: 1 stories a month, -60% share in a year.
- Not investment advice: this measures what people build on GitHub, not any company.
- Most-starred tools here lately: DavidHDev/react-bits (organic stars), MengTo/threeui.
- The field is reviving, so expect new tools and fast changes; pin versions.
