# Pre-built UI vs. React-based Browser SDK

Choosing how to integrate Whereby depends on how much control you need over the experience. Most teams can get up and running quickly using our pre-built UI, while the React-based Browser SDK is available for more advanced, fully customized use cases.

### Choose the right approach

{% columns %}
{% column %}
**🚀 Pre-built UI (Recommended)**

Fastest way to add video calls to your product using our ready-made interface.

* Minimal setup required
* Built-in UI and user experience
* Customize with attributes & parameters
  {% endcolumn %}

{% column %}
**🛠 React-based Browser SDK**

Flexible toolkit for building a fully custom video experience using React.

* Requires more development effort
* Full control over UI and workflows
* Compose your own interface and logic
  {% endcolumn %}
  {% endcolumns %}

***

### Compare the options

* Start with the **pre-built UI** if your goal is to launch quickly and meet standard video calling needs.
* Choose the **React-based Browser SDK** if you have specific customization requirements that go beyond the pre-built experience.
* In most cases, teams find that the **pre-built UI** meets their needs, especially with the available configuration options, without requiring a fully custom implementation.
