Chip

Chips are small pieces of metadata: the tags on a blog post, the status of a build, the categories on a page. They are inline by default, so a row of them wants a stack with wrap.

Basic chip

staticvitezero-runtime
stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
  chip('static'),
  chip('vite'),
  chip('zero-runtime'),
)

Colors

primaryneutralsuccesswarningdanger
stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
  chip({ color: 'primary' }, 'primary'),
  chip({ color: 'neutral' }, 'neutral'),
  chip({ color: 'success' }, 'success'),
  chip({ color: 'warning' }, 'warning'),
  chip({ color: 'danger' }, 'danger'),
)

Variants

    chip({ variant: 'soft', color: 'primary' }, 'soft'),
    chip({ variant: 'soft', color: 'success' }, 'soft'),
    chip({ variant: 'soft', color: 'danger' }, 'soft'),
  ),
  stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
    chip({ variant: 'outline', color: 'primary' }, 'outline'),
    chip({ variant: 'outline', color: 'success' }, 'outline'),
    chip({ variant: 'outline', color: 'danger' }, 'outline'),
  ),
  stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
    chip({ variant: 'solid', color: 'primary' }, 'solid'),
    chip({ variant: 'solid', color: 'success' }, 'solid'),
    chip({ variant: 'solid', color: 'danger' }, 'solid'),
  ),
)

Sizes

smallmediumlarge
stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', align: 'center', wrap: true },
  chip({ size: 'sm' }, 'small'),
  chip({ size: 'md' }, 'medium'),
  chip({ size: 'lg' }, 'large'),
)

Status dot

A dot in front turns a chip into a status. Colour alone is not enough to carry meaning, so keep the word.

Build passedQueuedFailedSkipped
stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
  chip({ color: 'success', dot: true }, 'Build passed'),
  chip({ color: 'warning', dot: true }, 'Queued'),
  chip({ color: 'danger', dot: true }, 'Failed'),
  chip({ color: 'neutral', dot: true }, 'Skipped'),
)

Give a chip an href and it renders an anchor — the usual shape for a tag list, where each tag is a page.

stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
  chip({ href: '/docs/routing', color: 'primary' }, 'routing'),
  chip({ href: '/docs/data', color: 'primary' }, 'data'),
  chip({ href: '/docs/islands', color: 'primary' }, 'islands'),
)

As a button

as changes the element, for a filter that toggles rather than navigates.

stack({ direction: 'row', gap: 'sm', wrap: true },
  chip({ as: 'button', variant: 'solid', color: 'primary', 'aria-pressed': 'true' }, 'All'),
  chip({ as: 'button', variant: 'outline', color: 'neutral', 'aria-pressed': 'false' }, 'Guides'),
  chip({ as: 'button', variant: 'outline', color: 'neutral', 'aria-pressed': 'false' }, 'Examples'),
)

In a table

PageStatus
/ok
/docsok
/blog/[slug]failed
table({
  striped: true,
  columns: [
    { key: 'page', header: 'Page' },
    { header: 'Status', align: 'end', render: (row) =>
      chip({ size: 'sm', dot: true, color: row.ok ? 'success' : 'danger' }, row.ok ? 'ok' : 'failed') },
  ],
  rows: [
    { page: '/', ok: true },
    { page: '/docs', ok: true },
    { page: '/blog/[slug]', ok: false },
  ],
})
