Preline UI is an open-source UI component library based on Tailwind CSS, designed for modern website and application development. It offers components, blocks, templates, JavaScript plugins, a theme system, framework integration guides, and a free Figma Design System. The main text indicates it includes 1584+ components and examples, 640+ free components, and 944 Free & Pro Blocks, of which 220+ are free.
Preline positions itself not as a full application framework, but as a UI acceleration layer for Tailwind CSS projects. Its components cover common UI elements like buttons, cards, forms, navigation, Modal, Dropdown, Tabs, Datepicker, Advanced Select, Datatables, Charts, Maps, and WYSIWYG. It supports HTML, JavaScript, and TypeScript, and integrates into environments using Tailwind CSS such as React, Vue, Next.js, Nuxt, Angular, Svelte, SolidJS, Qwik, and Laravel. It's worth noting that Preline Pro does not provide framework-specific source code for React/Vue; instead, it provides HTML, Tailwind CSS, and JavaScript patterns, requiring developers to adapt them themselves.
The free version is open-source and can be installed via npm i preline; it supports auto-initialization, non-auto manual initialization, and importing by plugin via preline/plugins/*. The documentation includes installation, framework guides, JavaScript, accessibility, theming, dark mode, component index, and changelog. The update logs frequently mention fixes for accessibility, Dropdown, Scrollspy, Overlay, and Advanced Select, indicating a fine-grained level of maintenance.
Open Source is free, supporting unlimited projects and developers; Pro is $249 for a single developer, unlimited projects, lifetime access, and free updates; Team is $459 for up to 15 developers; Enterprise is custom-priced, includes SLA and priority support, and allows discussion of redistribution under specific licenses. Pro is generally non-refundable, and General Support primarily covers accounts, billing, licensing, and product access, excluding technical debugging or custom implementation.
Pros include a highly usable free version, native Tailwind integration, framework agnosticism, clear theming capabilities, and a one-time purchase for Pro. Cons include the lack of framework-specific source code in Pro, no Pro Figma files, limited technical support, and strict redistribution restrictions. It is suitable for indie developers and small to medium teams familiar with Tailwind CSS who want to quickly build marketing pages, admin dashboards, e-commerce, or business application interfaces.
