Fold is a React based UI component library built specifically for developers building SaaS products or internal dashboards. Early Access is the first release of Fold Pro, which gives developers access to premium components built on top of Fold.
I started working on Fold about a year and a half ago to scratch my own itch of building a modern UI component library, with zero runtime dependencies (other than React). I’ve simply seen too many frontend stacks built on a house of cards, where managing dependencies & build pipelines becomes a full time job.
The open source core of Fold [1] launched about 6 months ago and finally, the first set of Pro components have just launched. The initial set of components include a Kanban Board, Todo List, Calendar, Data Grid, CSV Importer and Date Picker - with a few others on the way. You can check out the roadmap [2] to see what’s planned.
The overall vision of Fold is to deliver a great DX and to enable small (and big) teams & indies to deliver high quality product experiences, quickly and without spending a large amount of money.
What’s next?
There's a lot planned in terms of next steps, but getting Pro as stable as possible and improving the documentation are top priorities. Early Access will finish up with mobile support, when Fold Pro will go into a more regular release cadence.
