MUI Component vs React Bootstrap

Question

I'm developing an app using react js. I just want to ask your opinion. Is it redundant to use MUI Component and React Bootstrap at the same time?

Answer 1

There's nothing stopping you from using both MUI and Bootstrap in your project but either one should be able to meet all your design requirements.

But in choosing both you would have to keep in mind two very different approaches to design. The MUI implementation varies quite a bit from React Bootstrap. Not sure what you are going for here, but in a very general sense I would stick with one for my project/purpose.

(Personally I prefer MUI)

Answer 2

I think both libraries are great, but generally the approach is to pick one to keep less dependencies in your package.json file. You have to keep single approach when it comes to styling for two reasons:

• Consistency
• Whoever reads your codebase will be able to comprehend easily.

P.S: I prefer MUI, you can customize your own design system by overriding MUI default theme
