At first glance, this project looks like it's mostly a widget library built on top of ReactJS. Grommet may have grander ambitions than that (similar to how Qt has lots of non-GUI components such as file access, cryptographic hashes, etc.).

As for why they characterize it as "enterprise", you can look at their examples from http://www.grommet.io/docs/design/showcase

Also look at the blog post: http://blog.grommet.io/2015/11/23/what-is-grommet/

Looking over the widgets, this is not something to write apps like:

- 2D games

- raster graphics such as visualizing a stadium of available seats for customers to choose and buy tickets

... hence the "enterprisey" nature of the UX framework. It has dashboards, datagrids, calendar picker, etc to help you write typical line-of-business apps.

The text font looks very bad at "normal" size on my very typical enterprise corporate Win7 1920x1080 monitor.

It appears to be the Source Sans Pro font, if I remove that everything looks OK.

What's making this look more "enterprise" than any other CSS framework? Agreed that it looks nice, but I don't see how it's geared toward enterprise products.

What is the support for IE? I can't find it. I figure that would be very important if it's going after enterprise companies.

But where's the LCARS interface?
