Avatar

Live preview

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @sc1m/avatar

This also merges the token layer and installs src/lib/cn.ts plus @base-ui/react. For the manual route — prerequisites, components.json, and app-level setup — see Installation.

Usage

import { Avatar, AvatarImage, AvatarFallback } from "@/components/ui/avatar";

Composition

Every part is a separate export. Avatar owns state; the rest are presentational and must appear in this order.

Avatar└── AvatarFallback

Example

The preview above, with its source. This is the demo module verbatim, so the code and the thing it renders cannot drift apart.

<Avatar>
  <AvatarFallback>MR</AvatarFallback>
</Avatar>

API reference

Each part forwards every prop of its Base UI counterpart; the tables list the ones declared on the part itself. See Base UI's reference for the inherited element props.

AvatarImage

AvatarFallback

Accessibility

Behaviour, focus management, and ARIA wiring come from Base UI's Avatar — see its reference for the full keyboard map.

Design tokens

The component reads semantic tokens only — no raw colour, radius, or duration appears in its source. Override the token, not the component.

Source

src/components/ui/avatar/avatar.tsx — no next/* imports, so it drops into any React 19 + Tailwind v4 app.
