What Hacker News says

2 sources
@jxom went on to create bumbag and in that repo recommends Chakra as an alternative for these unmaintained libraries. See top of readme: https://github.com/jxom/bumbag-ui So not sure what controversy you're trying to stir. Fannypack didn't have dark mode, Accordions, Alerts, Breadcrumbs, responsive containers, and a whole slew of components that Chakra had. In fact if you look at the Avatar component from Chakra 5 yrs ago vs the Fannypack Avatar you'll see the code is completely different. https://github.com/segunadebayo/chakra-ui/blob/master/src/Av... https://github.com/jxom/fannypack/blob/c7046c5f58cc68ee756be... The most likely story is he was just using Fannypack's docs as a reference for how to format his own.
