  • Introduce a product, service, or campaign with a prominent centered headline.
  • Show a short announcement or category label above the headline using badges.
  • Present one or more calls to action beneath the hero copy.
  • Add custom content after the built-in actions using the children slot.

Examples

Product introduction

A headline, supporting copy, status badge, and two navigation actions.

product-introduction.tsx
import Hero1 from "@/components/ui/8bit/blocks/hero1";export function ProductHero() {  return (    <Hero1      title="Build something brilliant"      subtitle="A toolkit for your next big idea"      description="Explore practical tools for bringing your project to life."      badges={[{ label: "NEW", variant: "secondary" }]}      actions={[        { label: "Get started", href: "/start" },        { label: "Learn more", href: "/about", variant: "outline" },      ]}    />  );}

Limited-time promotion

A concise promotional hero with a destructive badge and a single link action.

limited-time-promotion.tsx
import Hero1 from "@/components/ui/8bit/blocks/hero1";export function SaleHero() {  return (    <Hero1      title="The weekend sale"      description="Save on selected items through Sunday."      badges={[{ label: "LIMITED TIME", variant: "destructive" }]}      actions={[{ label: "Shop now", href: "/sale" }]}    />  );}

Button action with custom content

An action without an href renders as a button; children appear after the actions.

button-action-with-custom-content.tsx
import Hero1 from "@/components/ui/8bit/blocks/hero1";export function CommunityHero() {  return (    <Hero1      title="Join the community"      actions={[{ label: "Sign up", onClick: () => console.log("Sign up") }]}    >      <p>Meet other makers and share what you are building.</p>    </Hero1>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
titlestring—Required hero heading, rendered as an h1.
subtitlestring—Optional short line rendered below the title.
descriptionstring—Optional supporting paragraph rendered below the subtitle.
badgesHeroBadge[][]Optional badges displayed above the title. Each item has a required label: string and an optional variant: "default" | "destructive" | "outline" | "secondary".
actionsHeroAction[][]Optional actions displayed below the description. Each item has a required label: string and optional href: string, onClick: () => void, and variant: "default" | "destructive" | "ghost" | "outline" | "secondary". When href is truthy, the action renders as a Next.js Link and onClick is not passed to it; otherwise it renders as a button.
childrenReactNode—Optional custom content rendered after the actions.
classNamestring—Optional additional class name for the outer section.

Accessibility

  • The title is rendered as an h1; use the component for the page’s primary heading and maintain a logical heading hierarchy around it.
  • The scanline overlay is decorative and marked aria-hidden="true".
  • Actions with href render as links; actions without href render as buttons. Use labels that clearly describe their destination or effect.
  • Check theme contrast for the title, supporting text, badges, and action controls, especially when customizing the section with className.
  • Provide meaningful accessible semantics for any custom content passed through children.
