Theming: All controls support SCSS-based theming through CSS variables, making it easy to customize the appearance to match your brand.
Composition API: Controls are built using Vue 3's Composition API for better code organization and reusability.
Internationalization: Built-in i18n support with English and Chinese out of the box, and easy extension for additional languages.
