Show HN: Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes

jrflo

That ascii lava lamp effect is low key really cool

tfitz237

These all look very professional for (basically) a parody library

MisterKent

Now I can produce slop without AI.

igurss

Nice UI quality

erdaltoprak

It's very fun and way too polished, thanks!

imafish

I heard you like AI slop...

wg0

Man... That's satire on a whole another level. What a technical and deep sense of humor.

heldrida

Spot on "AI Native".

ajpaulson

Lmao!!! Awesome

staminade

Very funny. Although ironic that this whole library was built with AI.

smhanov

It needs a purple gradient mode.

padolsey

The most extreme virtue-signal is to go completely browser-default and have no styling whatsoever. Like lowercasing because your pinky can't be arsed to reach for the shift-key even though you've a billion dollars in series A.

jtbayly

I could see actually using this…

Brajeshwar

Many a true word is spoken in jest.

yosef123

This needs an additional subscriptions service tier, that's even more performative and even more AI

cmrdporcupine

NGL I'm going to steal/borrow/leach all sorts of these for my product. When in Rome!

kardianos

Savage and accurate. 100%.

marknutter

Yawn. This is just bootstrap all over again. So what if people who don't have design skills can now create pleasant looking websites?

avaer

I've worked on several projects where people looked at the site, which was simple and straight to the point, and people would straight up tell me they didn't take it seriously because it didn't have these performative UI things on it. It's like when a Youtuber's audience complains about how they're constantly asking you to subscribe. The reason it happens is because the statistics say it works.

utopiah

Neat, opened an issue there for a finicky bit of code that'd help me quite a bit. /s
