Measured entry

hextaui-separator

cardminimal-flat

A client-side React wrapper for Radix Separator that renders horizontal or vertical dividing lines. It ships as a shadcn registry item, uses a shared cn utility backed by clsx and tailwind-merge, and relies on Tailwind utility classes plus the project's border color token.

Verdict

It builds and mounts in both configured and bare projects, and its horizontal and vertical modes render correctly. Still, the critical ARIA finding needs investigation before adoption. The narrow overflow comes from the demo's fixed-width card rather than the separator itself.

Use it if

  • You already use Radix primitives and want a small separator API consistent with that stack.
  • You need both horizontal dividers and vertical dividers inside height-constrained flex layouts.
  • Your project already has Tailwind, a border color token, and a shared cn helper.

Skip it if

  • Your accessibility gate rejects the observed unsupported ARIA attribute on rendered separators.
  • You want a dependency-free divider that can be expressed with a native element or a border utility.
  • You do not want to carry Radix and shadcn-style utility conventions for such a small primitive.
  • You need the supplied fixed-width demo card to fit narrow screens without adapting its layout.

In a non-shadcn project, add Radix Separator, clsx, and tailwind-merge; provide the aliased cn helper; configure Tailwind; and define the border color token used by the component. Preserve the client-component directive where the framework requires it.
