Measured entry
hextaui-sheet
sheetminimal-flatmotion on file
A client-side edge sheet built on Radix Dialog, with an overlay, close control, structured header and footer, and placement from any edge. It ships as copy-in registry source rather than a packaged widget, and relies on Tailwind utility classes, Lucide React, and a shadcn-style cn helper backed by clsx and tailwind-merge.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 914ms error during build: [vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "lucide-react" from "<sandbox>re-daf56515b036/src/cut/components/ui/sheet.tsx".
Verdict
A dependable, conventional sheet for Tailwind and Radix stacks. It built and mounted cleanly, stayed within the tested viewports, and produced no reported accessibility violations. The tradeoff is meaningful dependency and styling machinery for a familiar interaction.
Use it if
- You need a modal edit form, settings panel, or compact task flow that enters from a screen edge.
- Your React app already uses Tailwind theme tokens and Radix primitives.
- You want accessible dialog behavior while retaining direct control over the copied component source.
Skip it if
- You need a persistent sidebar rather than a modal surface with an overlay.
- Your design system does not use Tailwind utilities or shadcn-style theme tokens.
- You need swipe, drag, or snap-point interactions, which this component does not provide.
- You want to avoid adding Radix Dialog and Lucide React to a lightweight interface.
Install
| Declared dependencies | @radix-ui/react-dialog, clsx, tailwind-merge |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add Radix Dialog, Lucide React, clsx, and tailwind-merge; provide a compatible cn helper; map the background, foreground, border, ring, and secondary theme tokens; and include the Tailwind animation utilities used by the open and close states.
