Mofo UI
Mozilla Foundation's React component library. The peanut butter to mofo-bootstrap's jelly.
Overview
Mofo-ui is an innovative library of React UI components developed specifically for the Mozilla Foundation’s various hubs. It aims to enhance user interface development by providing reusable components that fit seamlessly with the projects under the Mozilla umbrella. While it is designed to complement mofo-bootstrap, it also stands alone, allowing developers to integrate it easily with standard Bootstrap versions or utilize it independently without any CSS framework.
This flexibility makes mofo-ui a compelling choice for developers looking to streamline their UI development process. The ease of installation and use means that anyone can get started quickly, building visually appealing and functional applications while standing on the shoulders of Mozilla’s solid foundation.

- Bootstrap
Bootstrap is the most popular CSS Framework for developing responsive and mobile-first websites.
- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Webpack
Webpack is a popular open-source module bundler for JavaScript applications that bundles and optimizes the code and its dependencies for production-ready deployment. It can also be used to transform other types of assets such as CSS, images, and fonts.
