Popover

Anchored panel (trigger + content) that stays while the reader looks, then closes on Escape or outside click.

beta@zedtech/zedkit-ui

Who is it for?: Developers showing a small panel next to a button without leaving the page.
When should I use it?: For filters, a short form, or extra context that must stay on screen.
When should I pick something else?: For a list of actions — use the action menu. For a task that needs full attention — use a dialog.

Use it

Simple

import { Button, Heading, Popover, PopoverContent, PopoverTrigger, Text } from "@zedtech/zedkit-ui";
<Popover>
  <PopoverTrigger asChild><Button variant="outline">Filters</Button></PopoverTrigger>
  <PopoverContent aria-label="Filters">
    <Heading level={3}>Filters</Heading>
    <Text>Status: open invoices only.</Text>
  </PopoverContent>
</Popover>

Kit not installed yet?

This ships on npm only; there is no copy-source brick for it.

You get

Every component from one import, with the theme tokens included. Updates arrive with your package manager.

You need

React 19 and Tailwind CSS 4, for example a Next.js app created with the Tailwind option.

Install

Terminal

pnpm add @zedtech/zedkit-ui @fontsource-variable/inter @fontsource-variable/space-grotesk

Load the styles

Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so the @source line points it at the kit's class names. The path is relative to this file.

src/app/globals.cssReplace the contents

@import "tailwindcss";
@import "@zedtech/zedkit-ui/styles.css";
@source "../../node_modules/@zedtech/zedkit-ui/src/**/*.{ts,tsx}";
@source not "../../node_modules/@zedtech/zedkit-ui/src/**/*.test.*";

Pick a look

Set data-identity="glass" on <html> so the finished app matches the site. Fresh app: replace src/app/layout.tsx. Existing app: merge, and keep ThemeProvider and other providers.

src/app/layout.tsxReplace the contents

import "./globals.css";
import "./fonts";

export default function RootLayout({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <html lang="en" data-identity="glass">
      <body>{children}</body>
    </html>
  );
}

Load the fonts
The Glass look uses Inter and Space Grotesk; these imports self-host them.
src/app/fonts.tsCreate the file
```
import "@fontsource-variable/inter";
import "@fontsource-variable/space-grotesk";
```

Import and render

src/app/page.tsxReplace the contents

import { Button, Heading, Popover, PopoverContent, PopoverTrigger, Text } from "@zedtech/zedkit-ui";

export default function Page() {
  return (
    <main className="px-page-gutter py-section-sm">
      <Popover>
        <PopoverTrigger asChild><Button variant="outline">Filters</Button></PopoverTrigger>
        <PopoverContent aria-label="Filters">
          <Heading level={3}>Filters</Heading>
          <Text>Status: open invoices only.</Text>
        </PopoverContent>
      </Popover>
    </main>
  );
}

Package version 2.0.1.

Props

Prop

Type

Accessibility

Content is role="dialog". Give it a name (aria-label or a heading). Focus is not trapped (unlike Dialog). Escape and outside click dismiss.

Drawer

Slide-in panels from any edge: right-side detail on desktop, bottom sheet on mobile; size sm, md or lg.

DropdownMenu

Action menu (trigger + items) with keyboard and axe coverage. Not a form select.
