Request

Replace the UI framework used in components/log-viewer-webui/client from Joy UI to Ant Design (Antd). Joy UI is currently in beta and its development is officially on hold. The official recommendation is to prefer Material UI for new projects to ensure ongoing support. However, Material UI’s design language is not appealing, thus Ant Design is suggested as a viable and more aesthetically pleasing alternative.

Ant Design has gained significant popularity recently, providing a wide array of advanced and fully free components, unlike MUI, which charges for certain advanced features (MUI X components). This transition will ensure ongoing support, modern aesthetics, and cost-effective scalability.

Possible implementation

• Gradually replace Joy UI components with Ant Design components, ensuring minimal disruption and incremental validation.
• Adjust styling and theming to align with the Ant Design system to maintain visual consistency across the application.
