Measured entry
originui-file-30
A compact React file picker that pairs a generated label ID with a native file input. It ships as a shadcn registry component, pulling in the registry's Input and Label wrappers, Tailwind theme utilities, a class-merging helper, and Radix UI for the label primitive.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 1.60s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/components/ui/label.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A sensible small primitive for an existing Origin UI or shadcn-style codebase. It builds and mounts in the prepared harness, but needs a shadcn-style setup in a bare app, and its muted file text needs a contrast review before production use.
Use it if
- You already use shadcn-style aliases, theme tokens, and shared UI primitives.
- You want a labeled native file control with a restrained, consistent treatment.
- You prefer browser-native file selection behavior over a custom drop zone.
Skip it if
- You need drag and drop, previews, progress, validation feedback, or multi-file management.
- Your design system cannot absorb its Tailwind tokens and shared Input and Label wrappers.
- You need to ship without first correcting the detected text contrast issue.
Install
| Declared dependencies | radix-ui |
|---|---|
| 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 the Input and Label wrappers, Radix UI, the class-merging utility, matching Tailwind theme tokens, and compatible import aliases. Adjust the muted file-text color to meet your contrast target.
