πŸš€ Just launched: React PDF – A developer-first PDF viewer for React & Next.js

Hey Indie Hackers! πŸ‘‹ I launched a couple of months back React PDF, a PDF viewer built specifically for React developers.

Why I built it:

I was frustrated with existing PDF Viewer solutions for React. They were missing key features, hard to customize or too expensive. I wanted something fast, native to the React ecosystem and reasonably priced.

What it does:

  • 🧩 Built with React β€” No iframes, full control using React Context and hooks

  • ⚑ High-performance rendering β€” Handles large documents with virtual scroll & lazy loading

  • 🧰 Customizable UI β€” Control toolbars, layout, zoom levels, side panels, and themes

  • πŸ“± Responsive design β€” Works great on desktop and mobile with smart UI adaptation

  • 🌐 Multi-language support β€” Built-in i18n with ability to add custom languages

  • πŸ“Ž Production ready β€” Fully documented, well-tested, and actively maintained

If you’re building something in React or Next.js and need a solid PDF viewer, check it out: https://www.react-pdf.dev

Happy to hear feedback, bug reports, or ideas for improvements.

Thanks all!
