Material-UI vs DevExtreme: What are the differences?

Developers describe Material-UI as "React components for faster and easier web development". It is a comprehensive guide for visual, motion, and interaction design across platforms and devices. On the other hand, DevExtreme is detailed as "HTML5 JavaScript Component Suite for Responsive Web Development". From Angular and React, to ASP.NET Core or Vue, it includes a comprehensive collection of high-performance and responsive UI widgets for use in traditional web and next-gen mobile applications. The suite ships with a feature-complete data grid, interactive charts widgets, data editors, and much more.

Material-UI and DevExtreme can be categorized as "UI Components" tools.

Some of the features offered by Material-UI are:

  • Tables
  • Forms
  • Snackbars

On the other hand, DevExtreme provides the following key features:

  • A Feature-Complete HTML5 JavaScript Data Grid Widget
  • Client-Side Widget Optimized for Multi-Dimensional Data Analysis
  • Collection of High-Performance Data Visualization Widgets

Material-UI and DevExtreme are both open source tools. Material-UI with 50.7K GitHub stars and 12.1K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than DevExtreme with 1.09K GitHub stars and 285 GitHub forks.

Fonts and typography are fun. Material Design is a framework (developed by Google) that basically geeks out on how to assemble your typographical elements together into a design language. If you're into fonts and typography, it's fantastic. It provides a theming engine, reusable components, and can pull different user interfaces together under a common design paradigm. I'd highly recommend looking into Borries Schwesinger's book "The Form Book" if you're going to be working with Material UI or are otherwise new to component design.
