Vision for SUIR?

[PaulAtST]

Hi, long story short I stared with a google searching how to update the font awesome icon set in Semantic UI React, and came across the issues talking about how Semantic UI React might move forwards since the Semantic UI repo is no longer updated.

This got me wondering is there a vision for how Semantic UI React will eventually move forward? Such as fork the Semantic UI project, support the Fomantic UI, make a Fomantic UI React project, or maybe another path I haven't found people talking about?

This is a great UI toolkit, and I feel like creating a vision for it would help people contribute.

I would also love to know what's going on with this project. It seems that SUIR v3 efforts have been stalled for awhile (#4233). Do we all need to move on? 😢

Agree. This is a really great project and the work that has been put in to this is really impressive. Despite looking at newer and more active alternatives, I haven't been able to find anything as overall appealing to me as SUIR.

Would be a great loss if it slowly dies.

Any news about this?
We have been using fomantic-ui with semantic-ui-react for 4 years now.
But looks like there is no future for semantic-ui project and owner of it has toxic attitude against fomantic:
Semantic-Org/Semantic-UI#7078 (comment)

We are missing all the new things from Fomantic and have to start planning shifting away from the framework to something else if this does not get sorted.

Fomantic-ui is still quite compatible with semantic-ui-react so forking it to fomantic-ui-react would be a straightforward thing and then could start slowly adding support for new features from fomantic.

ps. Thanks for maintaining this repo, too bad the base library is not maintained.

@jkytomak it would be great to push SUIR to v3 (see #4409) and fork to be FUIR as FUI is not fully compatible with SUI anymore. However, at this point I personally don't have capacity and, let's be honest, enough motivation to push it forward 😢
