The following design principles guide the development of NLUX:

• Intuitive ― Interactions enabled by NLUX should be intuitive. Usage should unfold naturally without obstacles or friction. No teaching or thinking should be required to use UI built with NLUX.

• Performance ― NLUX should be as fast as possible. Fast to load, fast to render and update, fast to respond to user input. To achieve that, we should avoid unnecessary work, optimize for performance, minimize bundle size, and not depend on external libraries.

• Accessibility ― UI built with NLUX should be accessible to everyone. It should be usable by people with disabilities, on various devices, in various environments, and using various input methods (keyboard, touch, voice).

• DX ― NLUX recognizes developers as first-class citizens. The library should enable an optimal DX (developer experience). It should be effortless to use, easy to understand, and simple to extend. Stellar documentation should be provided. The feature roadmap should evolve aligning to developer needs voiced.

Our mission is to enable developers to build outstanding LLM front-ends and applications, cross platforms, with a focus on performance and usability.
