About this project

Lumen UI was an ambitious headless component library focused on accessibility-first primitives. The maintainer stepped away after a career change, but the architecture is solid and ~60% of components are production ready. It needs someone to finish the remaining primitives, ship docs, and cut a stable release.

Why it was abandoned

Maintainer changed careers and lost bandwidth. The last commit was 14 months ago.
