tripled-context-menu-shadcnui

dropdownminimal-flatmotion on file

A client-side React context-menu demo shipped as a shadcn registry component. It opens a motion-animated action list at the pointer, with hardcoded Lucide icons and shortcuts. Its styling assumes Tailwind utilities and theme variables, while animation comes from Framer Motion.

Verdict

A clean, working visual starter for a bespoke context menu, but still a demo rather than a complete interaction primitive. Use it when you are prepared to add behavior, accessibility, and edge-aware positioning yourself.

Use it if

  • You need a compact right-click menu prototype with animated entry and dismissal behavior.
  • Your React project already uses Tailwind theme tokens, Framer Motion, and Lucide icons.
  • You plan to replace the sample actions with your own handlers and application state.

Skip it if

  • You need production-ready keyboard navigation, focus management, or established menu semantics.
  • The menu must reposition itself near viewport edges instead of following the pointer without collision handling.
  • You want configurable items, nested menus, or working actions without rewriting the component.
  • You want to avoid adding an animation library for a small contextual control.

In a non-shadcn project, add React, Framer Motion, Lucide React, a Tailwind utility setup, and definitions for the card background, foreground, and accent theme variables. Copy the client component into your source tree; the declared button registry dependency is not used by its source.
