hey! Great job on this, dashersw. I‘ve believed for a while now that the compile time dependency analyzer approach is the only good way for frameworks like this. Really neat choices on the API surface as well – so simple! Launching with a headless UI lib is smart. will try both in a side project soon! thanks and cheers!

Thank you! Honestly I tried building a replica of shadcn but that didn't prove to be viable. I thought it would be very difficult for developers to adopt without a first-party UI library so built one on top of Zag.js. And I expect a lot of AI-assisted coding sessions to happen with Gea so I also baked in enough AI skills to enable assistants, as well as migration guides for React. Hopefully these will help onboarding early adopters. Please let us know when you give Gea a try!
