"The most fundamental change in v6 is the migration from Less to SCSS with CSS variables as the primary theming interface. Updating theme values is now as simple as overriding variables at runtime - no rebuilds or tooling tweaks required. Consult the CSS Variables guide for the full variable list, and try the Palette tool to fine-tune brand colors visually. Additional Style Improvements Logical properties: margin-inline-start etc. replace physical properties for native RTL support."
"v6 includes first-class support for AI-assisted workflows, making it easier for tools like Cursor or Windsurf to reason about RSuite APIs. LLMs.txt Following the llms.txt standard, the docs site now exposes /llms.txt, a machine-readable index optimized for large language models. AI tools can retrieve up-to-date component APIs, usage notes, and examples, reducing hallucinations. MCP Server The official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets AI agents read RSuite knowledge directly: Real-time retrieval of component docs and props."
RSuite v6 replaces Less with SCSS and adopts CSS variables as the primary theming interface, enabling runtime theme overrides without rebuilds. Logical CSS properties and rem units improve native RTL support and responsive, accessible scaling. Documentation and tooling gain AI-first features including an /llms.txt machine-readable index and an MCP server for real-time retrieval of component docs and props. The MCP server provides context-aware suggestions and reduces errors by grounding answers in first-party docs. New layout primitives like Box and Center expose spacing, color, and layout props in JSX for composable UIs. The release emphasizes stability while supporting modern UI needs.
