Measured entry

hextaui-empty

chartminimal-flat

A composable React empty-state primitive with separate media, header, title, description, and content slots. It ships as TypeScript source through a shadcn registry and relies on React, Tailwind theme utilities, class-variance-authority, and a cn helper backed by clsx and tailwind-merge.

Verdict

A solid, small-scope empty-state primitive that builds, mounts, and passes the automated accessibility scan. The supplied demo overflows on a narrow screen because of its fixed-width wrapper, and bare use needs a shadcn-style setup. Choose it for its slot structure, not for the mislabeled chart category.

Use it if

  • You need a reusable empty state for dashboards, lists, or first-run screens.
  • Your product already uses shadcn conventions and Tailwind theme tokens.
  • You want independently styleable slots for an icon, explanatory copy, and an action.

Skip it if

  • You need a chart component; this queue entry is an empty-state layout despite its assigned pattern.
  • Your mobile layout cannot tolerate adjusting the fixed-width demo wrapper that caused narrow-screen overflow.
  • You need built-in heading or status semantics instead of adding accessible roles and elements at the call site.

Providerno provider required in the harness

In a non-shadcn project, add React, Tailwind CSS, class-variance-authority, clsx, and tailwind-merge. Define compatible muted and foreground theme tokens, then replace the aliased utils import or provide a matching cn helper and path alias. Remove or make the demo wrapper width responsive for narrow screens.
