Both Emotion and Styled-Components are popular tools that let you write CSS directly in your JavaScript code, which is known as CSS-in-JS. They help developers create reusable styled components and manage styles in React applications without separate CSS files. These libraries solve similar problems but have different approaches to performance and syntax.
Both libraries support CSS-in-JS, but emotion has more features like source maps, label prefixing, and auto vendor prefixing. styled-components has better support for server-side rendering.
Both libraries have excellent TypeScript support, with emotion having more comprehensive type definitions.
Both libraries support all modern browsers, including Internet Explorer 11.
emotion has no dependencies, while styled-components depends on hoist-non-react-statics and react-is.
Both libraries have excellent performance, with emotion being slightly faster in some benchmarks.
Both libraries are compatible with React, Angular, and Vue.js, but styled-components is more popular in the React ecosystem.
styled-components has a more active community, with more contributors and issues closed in the last month.
Both libraries have excellent documentation, but styled-components has more tutorials and guides.
Both libraries are actively maintained, with regular updates and releases.

Both libraries are excellent choices for CSS-in-JS, but styled-components is more popular and has better support for server-side rendering.
A CSS-in-JS library that works like styled-components but compiles your styles to real CSS files at build time. This means better performance because there's no runtime styling overhead.
Perfect alternative if you like styled-components syntax but want better performance. It's basically styled-components without the performance downsides of runtime styling.
CSS-in-JSA modern CSS-in-JS library that focuses on performance and developer experience. It lets you write styles with JavaScript objects and supports themes and variants out of the box.
Great choice if you want something more modern than styled-components with better performance and an amazing developer experience. It's like styled-components 2.0.
CSS-in-JSA CSS-in-TypeScript library that lets you write styles in TypeScript files that get compiled to real CSS at build time. Provides great type safety and performance.
Perfect for TypeScript projects where you want full type safety for your styles. It's like emotion/styled-components but with better TypeScript support and build-time CSS generation.
CSS-in-JSA utility-first CSS framework that lets you style elements using pre-built classes. Instead of writing CSS, you add classes directly to your HTML elements like 'bg-blue-500' or 'p-4'.
While it's a different approach from emotion/styled-components, it's become super popular for styling React apps. It's easier to learn for beginners and makes it simple to create consistent designs without writing CSS-in-JS.
