Welcome! This roadmap shows what we're building for Object UI and when you can expect it. We're committed to transparency, so you can plan your projects around our releases.
Last Updated: January 2026 · Updated Monthly
Object UI makes building beautiful, performant interfaces as simple as writing JSON. No deep expertise in React, design systems, or CSS required—just describe what you want, and we handle the rest.
"From JSON to world-class UI in minutes"
We're building this for developers who want to:
- ⚡ Build faster: Stop writing repetitive UI code
- 🎨 Look better: Get professional designs out of the box
- 📱 Work everywhere: One codebase for web, mobile, and beyond
- 🤝 Collaborate easily: Real-time editing and version control built-in
Faster Development
- Create complete CRUD interfaces in minutes, not days
- Pre-built components that just work
- AI helps you write the JSON schema
Better Performance
- 3x faster page loads than traditional low-code platforms
- 6x smaller bundle sizes (< 50KB vs 300KB+)
- Built on modern React 18+ with automatic optimizations
Easy to Learn
- If you know React, you already know most of Object UI
- Full TypeScript support with autocomplete
- Works with your existing tools and workflows
Full Control
- Extend or customize any component
- Use as much or as little as you need
- Export to standard React code anytime
✅ Schema-Driven Rendering Write JSON, get beautiful UI instantly:
{
"type": "form",
"title": "Contact Us",
"body": [
{ "type": "input", "name": "email", "label": "Your Email" },
{ "type": "textarea", "name": "message", "label": "Message" }
]
}✅ 20+ Production-Ready Components Everything you need to build real applications:
- Forms: Input, Select, Checkbox, Radio, DatePicker, File Upload
- Data: Table, List, Card, Tree View
- Layout: Grid, Flex, Container, Tabs
- Feedback: Alerts, Toasts, Dialogs, Loading States
✅ Expression System Make your UI dynamic with simple expressions:
// Show/hide based on conditions
visibleOn: "${user.role === 'admin'}"
// Format data on the fly
value: "${formatDate(createdAt, 'MMM DD')}"✅ Documentation & Examples

This is where it gets exciting! Build UIs without writing any code.
🎨 Drag-and-Drop Canvas
- Drag components from the palette
- See exactly what you're building
- Edit properties with a visual panel
- Arrange layouts visually
🎨 AI-Powered Just describe what you want:
"Create a user profile page with avatar, bio, and recent activity"
The AI generates the complete schema for you. Edit visually or tweak the JSON.
🎨 Real-Time Collaboration
- Work with your team like in Google Docs
- See cursor positions and changes live
- Comment on specific components
- No more "sending updated files"
🎨 Version Control
- Built-in Git integration
- Create branches for experiments
- Review changes before merging
- Rollback anytime
What this means for you: Non-developers can build UIs. Designers and developers collaborate in real-time. Everyone moves faster.

Here's what we're dreaming about for 2027 and beyond:
Use Object UI with Vue, Svelte, or any framework
React (2026) → Vue (2027) → Svelte (2027)
One schema, truly everywhere:
- ✅ Web (responsive)
- 📱 Mobile (React Native)
- 💻 Desktop (Electron)
- 🎯 Mini Programs (WeChat, Alipay)
- Generate entire applications from descriptions
- Automatically optimize for performance
- Smart accessibility improvements
- Design suggestions based on best practices
- WebGL component library
- VR/AR interface building
- 3D data visualizations
March 2026 for the core features. We have a preview available now that you can evaluate.
Yes! The core will always be MIT licensed. We may offer paid enterprise features, but the community edition will be powerful on its own.
We're focused on:
- Modern tech stack (React 18, Tailwind, TypeScript)
- Developer-first experience
- Performance (3x faster, 6x smaller)
- True modularity (use what you need)
Absolutely! Object UI is designed to integrate seamlessly. Use it for one page or your entire app.
Tell us! Open a GitHub issue. For custom features, we can discuss enterprise support.
Yes. We're committed to backward compatibility. Your schemas will keep working as we add features.
Want to know when new features launch? Here's how to stay in the loop:
