Hi HN. I'm one of the creators of MUI. The whole team is very excited to be sharing the results of the last two years of our work!

The last time we were on HN was 7 years ago with https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8582439! Back then, the community got hooked up in the integration of two shiny new trends: React and Material Design. A lot has changed in the React community since then.

In v5, we have focused on improving the customization experience, making the components as flexible as possible. You can find the following improvements:

- We have a new rebrand that distinguishes ourselves from Material Design: https://mui.com/blog/material-ui-is-now-mui/.

- We have moved from JSS to emotion, using the styled-components API as a primitive. This was a highly requested change from the community: https://github.com/mui-org/material-ui/issues/6115

- We have introduced styling props, and a sx prop: https://mui.com/system/basics/

- We have a growing set of alpha unstyled components, e.g. https://mui.com/components/autocomplete/#useautocomplete

- We have incorporated a company, sustaining over 10 people.

- We have introduced an advanced data grid: https://mui.com/components/data-grid/demo/

Thanks!
