Pick the right library for a given frontend task from a curated
by emilkowalskiFree
Description
pick-ui-library is an agent skill that recommends a library for a frontend task from a curated, opinionated list. It covers tasks such as numbers, OTP inputs, charts, command menus, virtualised lists, drag and drop, and UI primitives. When you describe a task, it matches the task rather than the library you named, recommends one library, and says in a sentence what it is for. It checks your project's package file first, so if the project already uses a listed library it keeps that, and if it uses a competitor it flags the choice without changing the dependency unless you ask. It does not present a menu of options when the list has a clear answer. If the task is not covered by the list, it says so and recommends from general knowledge, making clear it has left the curated list. Use it when you need to choose a dependency for a specific UI need, such as toasts or a date picker, and want one opinionated answer. It is part of the emilkowalski/skills repository on GitHub, which has about 46,200 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 160,300 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk.…
