Source & props

Edit on GitHub ↗

Prop types and inline documentation are included below. This is repository source; the installer rewrites shared imports for your project.

"use client";

import { useId } from "react";
import { cn } from "../lib/cn";
import { useLocale } from "../lib/use-locale";

export interface SliderProps {
  value: number;
  min?: number;
  max?: number;
  step?: number;
  label: string;
  onChange: (value: number) => void;
  className?: string;
}

/**
 * A native range input. The direction the thumb moves for "increase" already
 * flips correctly under `dir="rtl"` in every real browser — a from-scratch
 * custom slider has to reimplement that by hand and reliably gets it
 * backwards on the first attempt.

export function Slider({ value, min = 0, max = 100, step = 1, label, onChange, className }: SliderProps) {
  const id = useId();
  const { locale } = useLocale();
