Using Rating
Silica ships one design system through three paths. They share a class vocabulary but are not interchangeable — pick the one that matches what you are building.
Plain HTML — CSS classes
The Tailwind v4 plugin. Works in any framework or none — Rails, Django, PHP, Go, a static file. This path ships no JavaScript, so Rating is styled but inert: its behavior comes from rating. For that behavior with no framework, use the node-tree path below.
/* in your CSS */
@import "tailwindcss";
@plugin "@wizeworks/silicaui";Root class rating, with 15 modifiers:
.rating.rating-accent.rating-error.rating-info.rating-item.rating-lg.rating-md.rating-neutral.rating-primary.rating-readonly.rating-secondary.rating-sm.rating-success.rating-warning.rating-xl.rating-xs
React
Typed components over those same classes, with behavior and accessibility from Base UI.
npm i @wizeworks/silicaui-reactimport { Rating } from "@wizeworks/silicaui-react";Props
| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| value | number | no | Controlled value (number of filled stars). |
| defaultValue | number | no | Initial value when uncontrolled. |
| onValueChange | (value: number) => void | no | Called with the new rating whenever it changes. |
| onChange | (value: number) => void | no | @deprecated Use onValueChange. onChange is reserved for the native DOM handler on components that wrap a real form element; still honored here so this isn't a breaking change. |
| max | number | no | Number of stars. Default 5. |
| color | RatingColor | no | Accent color for filled stars. Default warning (gold). |
| size | RatingSize | no | Star size. |
| readOnly | boolean | no | Render non-interactive. |
| icon | React.ReactNode | no | Custom star icon (defaults to a filled star). |
| label | string | no | Accessible label for the group. |
Source of the demo above
The exact file that renders the examples above, so it can never drift from them. It imports a few of this site’s own layout helpers (../lib/…), so read it for the component calls rather than copying it whole.

}Vanilla — node tree to HTML
rating — not Base UI-backed in React either (plain JSX-set data-filled), so this ports near 1:1. Build a node tree, project it with toHtml(), and let the zero-dependency runtime hydrate it. This is the path for generated or user-authored documents — a site builder, CMS output, a static export.
npm i @wizeworks/silicaui-html @wizeworks/silicaui-behaviorsimport { atom, toHtml } from "@wizeworks/silicaui-html";
const node = atom("Rating", "rating", { /* props */ });
const markup = toHtml(node);Styling on this path is the class string in the second argument — the same classes as the Plain HTML section above. There is no color prop here; write "rating rating-primary" rather than passing a colour as a prop.

Load @wizeworks/silicaui-behaviors on the page or this markup renders correctly and does nothing.
