MaterialUI: Paper or Card title - reactjs

Designing a React application, what I want is having the title of a Card or Paper on the top border with some indention from left side, like this:
I searched a lot and couldn't find a generic way to do so. Should I create a customised component or there's way for this?

I don't know exactly what you want it to look like, but you can achieve something like that by using the fieldset and legend elements.
It might look like this:
<fieldset>
<legend>Current</legend>
// Content within border.
</fieldset>
Result:
This approach is used by Material-UI for the "Outlined" variant of TextField (demo here). The code that handles this aspect is the NotchedOutline component (source here).
You can also fairly easily do something yourself via a position attribute to move a title element up over the border. This would actually allow you to use one of those material-ui components to provide most of the styles, and then just move the title on to the border.

Replicate MUI paper background image

I'm working with Material-UI on my NextJS project, and wanted to know if is there a way to replicate the paper background-image on other components ? It will allow me to make some other components the exact same colors as Paper, because this background-image affect the color with a lighter effect.
EDIT: this effect seems to only occurs on dark mode
Thanks
Some components like Card, Dialog, Menu (and more) already use Paper as an inner component, then they get its style. The best way to add it to your components is to just use Paper as a surface.
You can also add variants to Mui components - for example, you add paper variant to TextField, and there add the styles.
A simpler way (but not complete) is to directly add the Mui-Paper className to another component (it is not complete because there are other styles except Mui-Paper. To achieve the elevation background-image effect you mantioned, you should add .MuiPaper-elevation{props.elevation} className.

React Dropdown dynamic buttons with material UI

I am trying to copy the parts inside black circles on the image below for training React and Material UI. My problem is that I am struggling a bit with which Material UI components to use... Any help or examples that looks like this are happily accepted!
There are some components from material-ui for composing the UI like what you asked for. You need to compose these components by yourself.
For components inside the long black circle, they can be from selects https://mui.com/components/selects/. You can find different styles from this link.
For components inside another circle. They are buttons, text_fields, chips, and cards. Which can be found from
https://mui.com/components/buttons/ https://mui.com/components/text-fields/ https://mui.com/components/chips/ https://mui.com/components/cards/
Can't give an answer for the part of Minerva Obj Name without knowing how it is interacted.

How do you even use ant design's ConfigProvider in React?

I see in the antd docs, there is option to use ConfigProvider, where I can customize some styles or some behaviors.
In my case I want to customize outline style of elements(when I focus on input, it gives blue outline ring, so I just wanna make it green).
I wrapped my whole App inside ConfigProvider. But I can't find any example of code of actual customizing.
Any help will be appreciated :)

react-data-grid: Sortable column header. What dictates which side of the text does the sort icon render on?

I've built out a react data grid. I've added the sortable optional feature and on my system is working with the sort icon(s) rendering to the right of the header text, which is how I'd prefer it.
Others in my group have pulled my code when they run it the sort icon is rendered to the left of the header text (I'm assuming somehow inserting the pull-left style to the icon span).
I can find no information that outlines how exactly this can be controlled, or why it would work differently from one system another.
Hopefully someone is still using this component that can shed some light on this.
You should be able to target the icon and override with CSS. If you inspect the element in Dev tools, it will tell you the classname of the icon. Use CSS to move its position.

Finite Icon Colors in Draftail Editor

I am trying to implement a finite number of colors (like square icons) on the Draftail editor itself. What will be the best way to approach this?
It should be similar to how Microsoft Word displays the font color or something along those lines.
Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if it's the best approach but here is what I came up with:
https://gist.github.com/benoitvogel/46022124d46de03ed2078603fb24ca97
This defines a new inline style which encloses the selected text between <span class="mycustomclass"></span> (change feature_name according to the CSS class you want to use).
Then, you just have to define the corresponding .mycustomstyle CSS class in your frontend as usual:
.mycustomstyle {
color: purple;
}
You can also modify control['style'] to change the way this style will be displayed in the editor.
You will get 1 icon/label per CSS class, so it's not really like in Word as you won't get a proper selector. I haven't tried it myself, but according to Wagtail docs icon can reference SVG, so you might be able to display color squares instead of labels.
Hope it fits your needs.
