Measured entry
tripled-native-avatar-expand-shadcnui
avatarminimal-flatmotion on file
A client-side React avatar button that expands on click to reveal a name, with size variants, initials fallback, tap feedback, and reduced-motion handling. It ships as shadcn registry source and depends on Framer Motion, shadcn Avatar primitives, Tailwind classes and theme tokens, plus the project's cn utility.

Verdict
A focused, accessible interaction that builds and mounts cleanly across the tested layouts. It is a good fit inside an existing shadcn stack, but the animation dependency is substantial for the effect and the default missing-image path requests a placeholder asset, which can create console noise unless supplied or changed.
Use it if
- You want an avatar to disclose a short identity label only after interaction.
- Your interface already uses shadcn Avatar primitives, Tailwind theme tokens, and Framer Motion.
- You need initials fallback and user motion preferences handled in the component.
Skip it if
- Names must remain visible without a click, such as in dense member lists or approval flows.
- You want to avoid the animation dependency for a small avatar interaction.
- Your design system does not provide shadcn-compatible Avatar primitives, Tailwind tokens, or a cn helper.
- A missing image must not trigger a request for a placeholder asset.
Install
| Declared dependencies | framer-motion, react, radix-ui, clsx, tailwind-merge |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | builds and mounts without the shadcn-style helpers |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add Framer Motion, a Radix-based Avatar implementation, Tailwind styles and the expected theme tokens, and a cn helper backed by clsx and tailwind-merge. Configure the import alias or rewrite the imports. Also provide the placeholder asset or change the missing-image behavior.
