For all the comments asking what's the difference between this and Bootstrap, Ant, jQuery UI, React, Vue and friends:

Interfaces built with FAST adapt to your design system and can be used with any modern UI Framework by leveraging industry standard _Web Components_.

The important word here is Web Components, which are like React or Vue components but using only standard HTML and JavaScript (no frameworks).

I guess you could even add Bootstrap on top of Fast.
