# Yail

[![lint-and-test-pr](https://github.com/Programmer-Network/yail/actions/workflows/ci.yaml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/Programmer-Network/yail/actions/workflows/ci.yaml)



## 🎨Yail's [Storybook](https://yail.programmer.network)

_Yail_ is the official UI library of
[Programmer Network](https://programmer.network), crafted for developers who
prioritize simplicity and efficiency. Embracing a minimalist approach, _Yail_ is
now open-sourced to share its straightforward and effective design ethos with
the broader community. Here’s what makes _Yail_ stand out:

- **Minimalistic Design**: _Yail_ focuses on the essentials to deliver a
user-friendly experience free from unnecessary complexity.
- **Tailored with Tailwind-CSS**: Integrating Tailwind-CSS, _Yail_ offers
intuitive styling options, enabling you to create visually appealing web
projects effortlessly.
- **Ease of Maintenance**: We prioritize hassle-free maintenance, making _Yail_
as easy to manage as it is to implement.

Originally developed for [Programmer Network](https://programmer.network), we
decided to open source _Yail_ due to the growing interest from the community.
Whether you're working on small-scale projects or large applications, _Yail_
provides the tools for building elegant, responsive, and accessible UIs with
minimal overhead.

For an in-depth look at what _Yail_ offers, the Storybook is a good starting
point. It documents the current set of UI components and their usage patterns.
You can visit our [🖌️Storybook](https://yail.programmer.network) to review the
implemented features and components.

Yail is _yet another interface library_ used by
[Programmer Network 💻🤓](https://programmer.network).
