What is the current plan regarding Base UI?

[abdullahkhansk]

I noticed Plate currently uses Radix UI in several places. Since Base UI is becoming a strong unstyled/headless alternative, I wanted to ask whether there is any plan to move from Radix UI to Base UI in the future.

A few reasons I am asking:

Base UI feels closer to the “unstyled but accessible primitives” model.
It may give more control over styling and composition.
Some teams are already considering Base UI as a replacement for Radix in new design systems.

Is Plate planning to keep Radix as the main primitive layer, support Base UI as an alternative, or gradually move toward Base UI?

I would be interested to know the direction so we can make better decisions when building custom Plate components and design-system integrations.

It will be supported. Note that our components depend on shadcn components, so you could replace those with the base ones.
