Drawer
A panel that slides in from the edge of the screen.
View as MarkdownNote: Drawer is in preview for a temporary period and receives breaking changes in minor versions. DrawerPreview will be renamed to Drawer when it exits preview.
Anatomy
Import the component and assemble its parts:
import { DrawerPreview as Drawer } from '@base-ui/react/drawer';
<Drawer.Provider>
<Drawer.IndentBackground />
<Drawer.Indent>
<Drawer.Root>
<Drawer.Trigger />
<Drawer.Portal>
<Drawer.Backdrop />
<Drawer.Viewport>
<Drawer.Popup>
<Drawer.Content>
<Drawer.Title />
<Drawer.Description />
<Drawer.Close />
</Drawer.Content>
</Drawer.Popup>
</Drawer.Viewport>
</Drawer.Portal>
</Drawer.Root>
</Drawer.Indent>
</Drawer.Provider>Drawer supports swipe gestures to dismiss. Set swipeDirection to control which direction dismisses the drawer. <Drawer.Content> allows text selection of its children without swipe interference when using a mouse pointer.
Examples
State
By default, Drawer is an uncontrolled component that manages its own state.
<Drawer.Root>
<Drawer.Trigger>Open</Drawer.Trigger>
<Drawer.Portal>
<Drawer.Viewport>
<Drawer.Popup>
<Drawer.Content>
<Drawer.Title>Example drawer</Drawer.Title>
<Drawer.Close>Close</Drawer.Close>
</Drawer.Content>
</Drawer.Popup>
</Drawer.Viewport>
</Drawer.Portal>
</Drawer.Root>Use open and onOpenChange props if you need to access or control the state of the drawer.
const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
return (
<Drawer.Root open={open} onOpenChange={setOpen}>
<Drawer.Trigger>Open</Drawer.Trigger>
<Drawer.Portal>
<Drawer.Viewport>
<Drawer.Popup>
<Drawer.Content>
<Drawer.Title>Example drawer</Drawer.Title>
<Drawer.Close>Close</Drawer.Close>
</Drawer.Content>
</Drawer.Popup>
</Drawer.Viewport>
</Drawer.Portal>
</Drawer.Root>
);Position
Positioning is handled by your styles. swipeDirection defaults to "down" for bottom sheets. Use "up", "left", or "right" for other drawer positions.
<Drawer.Root swipeDirection="right">Nested drawers
Use the [data-nested-drawer-open] selector and the --nested-drawers CSS variable to style drawers when a nested drawer is open.
This demo stacks nested drawers using a constant peek so the frontmost drawer stays anchored to the bottom while the ones behind it are scaled down and lifted. It also uses the --drawer-height and --drawer-frontmost-height CSS variables to handle varying drawer heights.
Snap points
Use snapPoints to snap a bottom sheet drawer to preset heights. Numbers between 0 and 1 represent fractions of the viewport height, and numbers greater than 1 are treated as pixel values. String values support px and rem units (for example, '148px' or '30rem').
const snapPoints = ['148px', 1];
const [snapPoint, setSnapPoint] = React.useState<Drawer.Root.SnapPoint | null>(snapPoints[0]);
<Drawer.Root snapPoints={snapPoints} snapPoint={snapPoint} onSnapPointChange={setSnapPoint}>
{/* ... */}
</Drawer.Root>Apply the snap point offset in your styles when using vertical drawers:
.DrawerPopup {
transform: translateY(calc(var(--drawer-snap-point-offset) + var(--drawer-swipe-movement-y)));
}By default, the drawer can skip snap points when swiping quickly. Specify the snapToSequentialPoints prop to disable velocity-based skipping so the snap target is determined by drag distance (you can still drag past multiple points).
Indent effect
Scale the background down when any drawer opens by wrapping your app in <Drawer.Provider> and use <Drawer.IndentBackground> + <Drawer.Indent> at the top of your tree. Any <Drawer.Root> within the provider notifies it when it mounts, which activates the indent parts (they receive [data-active] state attributes).
Non-modal
Set modal={false} to opt out of focus trapping and disablePointerDismissal to keep the drawer open on outside clicks.
Mobile navigation
You can build a full-screen mobile navigation sheet using Drawer parts, including a flick-to-dismiss from the top gesture.
Action sheet with separate destructive action
This demo builds an action sheet with a grouped list of actions plus a separate destructive action button.
Detached triggers
A drawer can be controlled by a trigger located either inside or outside the <Drawer.Root> component. For simple, one-off interactions, place the <Drawer.Trigger> inside <Drawer.Root>.
However, if defining the drawer’s content next to its trigger is not practical, you can use a detached trigger. This involves placing the <Drawer.Trigger> outside of <Drawer.Root> and linking them with a handle created by the Drawer.createHandle() function.
const demoDrawer = Drawer.createHandle();
<Drawer.Trigger handle={demoDrawer}>Open</Drawer.Trigger>
<Drawer.Root handle={demoDrawer}>
...
</Drawer.Root>The drawer can render different content depending on which trigger opened it. This is achieved by passing a payload to the <Drawer.Trigger> and using the function-as-a-child pattern in <Drawer.Root>.
const demoDrawer = Drawer.createHandle<{ title: string }>();
<Drawer.Trigger handle={demoDrawer} payload={{ title: 'Profile' }}>
Profile
</Drawer.Trigger>
<Drawer.Trigger handle={demoDrawer} payload={{ title: 'Settings' }}>
Settings
</Drawer.Trigger>
<Drawer.Root handle={demoDrawer}>
{({ payload }) => (
<Drawer.Portal>
<Drawer.Popup>
<Drawer.Content>
<Drawer.Title>{payload?.title}</Drawer.Title>
</Drawer.Content>
</Drawer.Popup>
</Drawer.Portal>
)}
</Drawer.Root>Stacking and animations
Use CSS transitions or animations to animate drawer opening, closing, swipe interactions, and nested stacking. The data-starting-style attribute is applied when a drawer starts to open, and data-ending-style is applied when it starts to close.
The --nested-drawers CSS variable can be used to determine stack depth. The frontmost drawer has index 0.
.DrawerPopup {
--stack-step: 0.05;
--stack-scale: calc(1 - (var(--nested-drawers) * var(--stack-step)));
transform: translateY(var(--drawer-swipe-movement-y)) scale(var(--stack-scale));
}When stacked drawers have varying heights, use the --drawer-height and --drawer-frontmost-height variables to keep collapsed drawers aligned with the frontmost one.
.DrawerPopup {
--bleed: 3rem;
--stack-height: max(
0px,
calc(var(--drawer-frontmost-height, var(--drawer-height)) - var(--bleed))
);
height: var(--drawer-height, auto);
}
.DrawerPopup[data-nested-drawer-open] {
height: calc(var(--stack-height) + var(--bleed));
overflow: hidden;
}The data-nested-drawer-open attribute marks drawers behind the frontmost drawer. Use it with data-nested-drawer-swiping to dim or hide parent drawer content while keeping it visible during nested swipe interactions.
.DrawerContent {
transition: opacity 300ms;
}
.DrawerPopup[data-nested-drawer-open] .DrawerContent {
opacity: 0;
}
.DrawerPopup[data-nested-drawer-open][data-nested-drawer-swiping] .DrawerContent {
opacity: 1;
}The --drawer-swipe-movement-x, --drawer-swipe-movement-y, and --drawer-snap-point-offset CSS variables can be used to create smooth drag and snap offsets:
.DrawerPopup[data-swipe-direction='right'] {
transform: translateX(var(--drawer-swipe-movement-x));
}
.DrawerPopup[data-swipe-direction='down'] {
transform: translateY(calc(var(--drawer-snap-point-offset) + var(--drawer-swipe-movement-y)));
}The data-swipe-direction attribute can be used with data-ending-style to animate directional dismissal:
.DrawerPopup[data-ending-style][data-swipe-direction='right'] {
transform: translateX(100%);
}
.DrawerPopup[data-ending-style][data-swipe-direction='down'] {
transform: translateY(100%);
}Use --drawer-swipe-progress to fade the backdrop as the drawer is swiped, and --drawer-swipe-strength to scale release transition durations based on swipe velocity.
.DrawerBackdrop {
--backdrop-opacity: 0.2;
opacity: calc(var(--backdrop-opacity) * (1 - var(--drawer-swipe-progress)));
}
.DrawerPopup[data-ending-style],
.DrawerBackdrop[data-ending-style] {
transition-duration: calc(var(--drawer-swipe-strength) * 400ms);
}
.DrawerPopup[data-swiping],
.DrawerBackdrop[data-swiping] {
transition-duration: 0ms;
