Any plans for better Radix or ShadCN like support?

Feature Description

This is the big elephant in the room, that Angular needs to (with urgency!) catch up on, despite the faster signals performance. Here is what A.I. says repeatedly about the component and styling system in Angular (this is not me, but a popular LLM's opinion):

React has a much richer ecosystem of polished, accessible UI component libraries:

• Radix UI provides unstyled, accessible primitives with excellent composition patterns
• Shadcn/UI offers beautiful, customizable components built on Radix primitives
• Headless UI, Chakra UI, Material UI, and many others provide different approaches to component design

Angular's component library options are more limited and often less polished:

• Angular Material is the official library but can feel dated and inflexible
• PrimeNG and NG-Bootstrap exist but don't match the developer experience of modern React libraries
• Many Angular libraries feel more heavyweight and less customizable

The Tradeoff

This creates a genuine tradeoff for developers:

Angular: Better performance architecture with signals, but weaker component ecosystem

React: More comprehensive and modern component libraries, but less efficient rendering approachReact's Component Library Advantage React has a much richer ecosystem of polished, accessible UI component libraries: Radix UI provides unstyled, accessible primitives with excellent composition patterns Shadcn/UI offers beautiful, customizable components built on Radix primitives Headless UI, Chakra UI, Material UI, and many others provide different approaches to component design
