PrimeNG 6.0.0 Released

Well, it is PrimeTime! PrimeNG 6.0.0 is now available featuring the all-new mighty TreeTable, PrimeIcons, maximizable Dialogs and various enhancements to improve the overall quality of the library. As a coincidence, PrimeNG has reached 2.5M downloads so let’s celebrate it with a new major release.

PrimeIcons

PrimeIcons is the new official font-icon library from PrimeTek to be shared between the PrimeNG, PrimeReact and other future Prime UI Suites. With 6.0.0 PrimeNG components now internally use PrimeIcons library. Previous releases depend on font-awesome, with 6.0 there is no such dependency. Visit PrimeIcons documentation for more information.

Maximizable Dialog

Dialog gets a new maximizable property to enable toggling between full screen mode of its content. See the live demo for details.

Theme Designer API

Designer API is a SASS based theme engine to create PrimeNG themes easily featuring over 500 variables, a demo application and a base sample theme. Whether you have your own style guide or just need a custom theme, Designer API is the right tool to design and bring them to existence. Visit the designer homepage for more information.
