Measured entry

8bitcn-quest-log

accordionskeuomorphismmotion on file

A client-side retro quest tracker that sorts active entries first, presents status badges, and expands descriptions inside a fixed-height scroll area. It ships as a shadcn registry block composed from 8bit card, accordion, badge, and scroll-area wrappers, with Radix primitives, Tailwind utilities, a cn helper, retro CSS, and a hosted display font.

Verdict

A focused, characterful quest accordion with sensible status ordering and a clean verified mount in the prepared harness. It needs a shadcn-style setup, and the compact overflow requires attention before mobile use. Choose it for game-flavored interfaces, not as a neutral drop-in task list.

Use it if

  • You are building a game dashboard or themed task list where quest status and expandable descriptions fit the product language.
  • Your app already uses shadcn conventions, Tailwind utilities, path aliases, and compatible card, badge, and accordion primitives.
  • You want active quests promoted automatically while completed, failed, and pending items remain available in one scrollable panel.

Skip it if

  • The panel must fit narrow mobile containers without layout tuning, since the verified compact render overflows horizontally.
  • You need a standalone component with minimal framework coupling or do not want to adopt shadcn-style source files and aliases.
  • Your interface cannot depend on a remotely hosted retro font or the pixel-game styling conflicts with the rest of the product.
  • You need configurable sorting, labels, or panel height without editing the component source.

In a non-shadcn project, add Tailwind, the cn utility and path aliases, the base card, badge, and accordion components, the Radix accordion and scroll-area packages, class composition dependencies, the 8bit wrapper files, and the retro stylesheet. Also allow or self-host the imported display font, then adjust the compact layout to prevent horizontal overflow.
