Ant Design is honestly excellent, we've used it at work for a few smaller React projects and it felt so much better than most of the other alternatives like Material UI

It's very batteries included, you don't even need to use any external form handling library

I use MUI*, but forms there is indeed a pain (you basically have to hook up a third-party forms library and connect it to the "dumb" MUI components).

How does Ant handle it?

*Minor nitpick, just for clarity: The UI framework is called MUI, which is a third-party component framework loosely based off Google's Material UI designs. Google has their own (now-abandoned, I think) Material UI web components, which are a pale shadow of what MUI offers.

MUI is also not necessarily tied to Material (although it typically is). The library can use the same core logic but be styled with different looks (Joy UI, a custom design system, or no styling at all).
