Verdict

Useful for expressive single-choice fields in an existing shadcn codebase, but it is not ready to adopt unchanged: the trigger has an accessibility failure and the wide render was blank. It needs a shadcn-style setup, and the bare project does not mount.

Use it if

  • You need a compact mood, status, sentiment, or category picker with color and emoji cues.
  • Your app already has shadcn Select, path aliases, the cn utility, and Tailwind styles in place.
  • An uncontrolled initial selection and an on-change callback fit your form state model.

Skip it if

  • You need an accessible release without first fixing the trigger's missing discernible name.
  • You need reliable rendering across wide layouts before investigating the blank desktop result.
  • You need a fully controlled value prop rather than the component's default-value-only API.
  • You want a standalone package that works without shadcn aliases and local UI primitives.

In a non-shadcn project, add the shadcn Select primitive, a compatible cn utility, the components and lib path aliases, Tailwind configuration and styles, plus the Radix UI, clsx, and tailwind-merge dependencies. Then give the trigger an accessible name and verify wide-layout rendering.
