# Component families

This section groups VegaUI components by product decision area rather than by export name. Use these pages when the first question is "what kind of control or pattern do I need?" instead of "how do I use component X?".

## Families

- [Selection controls](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/selection-controls/)
- [Overlays](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/overlays/)
- [Date inputs](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/date-inputs/)
- [Text inputs](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/text-inputs/)
- [Data displays](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/data-displays/)
- [Layout primitives](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/layout-primitives/)
- [Status and feedback](https://vega-ui.dev/docs/families/status-feedback/)

## How To Use This Section

- Start here when several components look similar but solve different UX problems.
- Use the linked component pages for final API, anatomy, accessibility, and troubleshooting details.
- Treat family docs as navigation and decision aids, not as replacements for per-component docs.
