buefy is a lightweight library that brings the power of Bulma's CSS framework to Vue.js applications. It provides a set of Vue.js components that are styled using Bulma's CSS classes, allowing developers to easily create beautiful and responsive user interfaces. While buefy offers a convenient way to integrate Bulma with Vue.js, there are other UI component libraries in the Vue.js ecosystem that provide similar solutions. Here are a few alternatives:

• element-ui is a popular UI component library for Vue.js applications. It offers a wide range of components and features that are designed to help developers build elegant and functional user interfaces.
• quasar is a comprehensive Vue.js framework that provides a set of high-quality components, directives, and plugins for building responsive and performant applications.
• vuetify is a material design component framework for Vue.js. It offers a wide selection of pre-built components and utilities that follow Google's Material Design guidelines.
