To build accessible React UI components with consistent theming, you integrate Radix Primitives for unstyled headless components and wrap them with Radix Themes for a cohesive 12-step color scale styling layer.

Accessible UI primitives are headless, unstyled components like Dialog and Popover that handle ARIA compliance and keyboard interaction. You need them when building React dashboards or forms requiring strict accessibility standards without lock-in styling.

To integrate Radix Themes with headless primitives in a React application, you wrap your component tree with the Theme provider, import the required CSS, and compose Radix Primitives inside the styled Theme components to ensure proper styling and accessibility.

Yes, Radix UI works with existing React dashboards and forms requiring ARIA compliance by providing unstyled primitives that manage keyboard navigation and focus trapping, which you can style using the Radix Themes layer or custom CSS.

The best way to style headless React components for design-system consistency is applying Radix Themes, which provides a styled component layer utilizing 12-step color scales to enforce cohesive visual design across all UI primitives.

Your Radix Themes setup loses styling or accessibility in React dialogs if you omit the required CSS imports, fail to wrap the application in the Theme component, or incorrectly nest the @radix-ui/react-* primitives outside the theme provider.
