Akaza UI has released v0.0.6-alpha, adding new Date, Time, and Calendar primitives alongside a number of bug fixes.

This library has an interesting approach: it’s a headless UI library built specifically for Vue 3 and Nuxt, but unlike most existing options in the space, it uses slots and single-file component (SFC) templates instead of a nested subcomponent tree structure.

What does that mean?

If you’ve used Radix or other React-style headless libraries, you’re probably familiar with their common pattern: every component is split into a bunch of separate subcomponents like Root, Trigger, Content, Item, and so on, resulting in deep nesting. This works perfectly fine in React, because JSX’s composability is naturally suited for this pattern. But it always feels awkward when ported directly to Vue.

Akaza UI’s solution? It uses named slots.

```vue

Accessible behavior, your styles.

```

This isn’t just a port of a React component library to Vue — it’s built for Vue from scratch. v-model, named scoped slots, UI props — all of these are native Vue patterns used natively.

Core features:

- **Fully accessible**: Built following WAI-ARIA patterns, with keyboard navigation, focus management, and screen reader support out of the box

- **Completely unstyled**: Zero default styles, works seamlessly with plain CSS, Tailwind, or any design system you use

- **Native Vue Slots API**: Uses slots instead of nested subcomponents, no Radix-style boilerplate required

- **Headless and flexible**: All states and behaviors are exposed via slots and props — you control the markup, Akaza UI handles the logic

- **Lightweight**: No runtime bloat, every component is self-contained with minimal dependencies

- **TypeScript-first**: Slot props, component props, and emits are all fully typed, with autocompletion available everywhere

The official website has a complete form demo that shows how native validation, server-side errors, disabled groups, custom controls, and nested fields work together in a real-world workflow.

This release is still an alpha, but the core approach is correct. The Vue ecosystem needs more libraries built by people who actually understand Vue, not just direct ports of React tools.
