UI-Kit Component Alternatives
A list of alternative components to the ones provided by the UI-Kit
ReadMore
The Collapsible component provides the same show/hide functionality as a dedicated ReadMore component. It allows content to be toggled based on user interaction, which is the core behavior needed for read-more patterns.
This pattern can be implemented by chunking text based on character or word count, and conditionally rendering the "Read more" button based on content length. This approach achieves a similar user experience without needing a dedicated ReadMore component.
Search
Search functionality is a perfect example of <InputGroup> usage, combining input fields with icons, buttons, and other addons.
InputGroup is highly flexible and supports various configurations. Explore additional examples in the detailed documentation.
User
The User component is essentially a combination of an avatar and text content.
<Item> provides a structured way to display an image alongside content, making it an ideal fit for user profiles.

NumberInput
Numeric inputs can be implemented in multiple ways. The first example demonstrates a basic number input, while the second implements manual increment/decrement controls. Both approaches are valid and can be chosen based on your application's specific requirements.
For additional features like validation, error handling, or custom styling,
integrate the input with the <Field/> component to create a more robust and user-friendly number input experience.
Enter the quantity you wish to order (1-10)
Enter the price per unit in dollars
Hero
A hero section is often unique to each application, so there isn't a one-size-fits-all component for it. However, you can easily create hero sections using a combination of layout components, typography, and media elements.
Here are a few variations that can be built using these UI-Kit components:

Unit
For numeric display formatting, use the browsers Intl API.
All examples in this section are based on Intl formatting primitives. See the MDN overview for Intl.NumberFormat.
This approach keeps formatting logic explicit, locale-aware, and easy to test.
Currency
Use style: "currency" with the target currency code.
To check available ISO currency codes, see MDN: Intl.supportedValuesOf("currency").
USD: $1,234.56
EUR: 1.234,56 €
Numbers
Use plain decimal formatting for grouped thousands and controlled precision. For grouping, notation, and precision options, see MDN: digit and notation options.
Grouped: 1,234,567.89
Compact: 1.2M
Metric systems
Use style: "unit" with the metric unit you need.
Length: 42 km
Mass: 12.5 kg
Temperature: 24°C
Volume: 3 L
Percentages
Use style: "percent" and pass decimal input values (for example 0.42 -> 42%).
Completion: 42.7%
Progress: 85%
For form-related use cases, keep the raw numeric value in state and apply Intl formatting only when rendering labels, summaries, or read-only values.
