Vanilla HTML components for Dash
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No, unless maintaining a legacy Dash application that explicitly imports from this package. New projects should use HTML components from the main Dash package instead. The package is abandoned, archived, and superseded; installing it introduces a maintenance liability without providing functionality unavailable elsewhere.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- This package is abandoned and maintained only for backward compatibility; new Dash projects should use components from the main Dash package instead.
- Low install friction with no runtime dependencies.
- However, the package is abandoned as of 2021-09-03 and its repository is archived; development moved to the main Dash repository in Dash 2.

What it is and what it does
dash-html-components provides a set of Python wrapper classes for standard HTML elements, allowing developers to construct web interfaces declaratively within Dash applications. Each HTML tag (div, span, button, etc.) becomes a Python object that can be configured with attributes and nested children, making it possible to build dynamic web UIs without writing raw HTML.
As of Dash 2, this package is no longer actively developed—its functionality has been integrated into the main Dash repository. This package persists solely for backward compatibility with older Dash applications that import from it directly. New projects should use the HTML components available in the core Dash package instead.
Use it for
- Building legacy Dash applications that were written before Dash 2 and still import directly from dash-html-components.
- Maintaining existing codebases that depend on this package without refactoring to use the main Dash components.
- Understanding how Dash wraps HTML elements as Python objects for declarative UI construction.
