Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @bundui/floating-button

Requires @bundui in the registries of your components.json (shadcn adds official directory namespaces automatically).

Usage

usage.tsx
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";import { FloatingButton, FloatingButtonItem } from "@/components/floating-button/floating-button";export default function Example() {  return (    <FloatingButton      triggerContent={<Button size="icon" aria-label="Open actions">+</Button>}    >      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button size="icon" aria-label="Share">S</Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>    </FloatingButton>  );}
  • Use for compact social sharing, contact, support, or quick-action menus.
  • Use when secondary actions should remain hidden until the user activates a single floating trigger.
  • Use in dashboards, product interfaces, or mobile-oriented layouts where vertical space is limited.
  • Use when staggered Motion animations and click-outside dismissal are desirable.

Examples

Social actions

A circular plus trigger reveals branded social action buttons.

social-actions.tsx
import { DribbbleIcon, FacebookIcon, LinkedinIcon, PlusIcon } from "lucide-react";import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";import { FloatingButton, FloatingButtonItem } from "@/components/floating-button/floating-button";export default function SocialFloatingButton() {  return (    <FloatingButton      triggerContent={        <Button size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full" aria-label="Open social links">          <PlusIcon className="size-5" />        </Button>      }    >      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full bg-[#1877f2]" aria-label="Facebook">          <FacebookIcon />        </Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full bg-[#ea4c89]" aria-label="Dribbble">          <DribbbleIcon />        </Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full bg-[#0a66c2]" aria-label="LinkedIn">          <LinkedinIcon />        </Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>    </FloatingButton>  );}

Contact shortcuts

Use links as floating items for contact and support destinations.

contact-shortcuts.tsx
import { Mail, MessageCircle, PlusIcon } from "lucide-react";import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";import { FloatingButton, FloatingButtonItem } from "@/components/floating-button/floating-button";export default function ContactFloatingButton() {  return (    <FloatingButton      triggerContent={        <Button size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full" aria-label="Open contact options">          <PlusIcon className="size-5" />        </Button>      }    >      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button asChild size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full" aria-label="Email support">          <a href="mailto:support@example.com">            <Mail />          </a>        </Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>      <FloatingButtonItem>        <Button asChild size="icon" className="size-12 rounded-full" aria-label="Open live chat">          <a href="/support/chat">            <MessageCircle />          </a>        </Button>      </FloatingButtonItem>    </FloatingButton>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
FloatingButton.classNamestring | undefined—Optional class name. It is declared in the component props type but is not applied to the rendered markup by the source implementation.
FloatingButton.childrenReactNode—Required content rendered as the animated list of floating actions. Typically contains one or more FloatingButtonItem components.
FloatingButton.triggerContentReactNode—Required content rendered inside the clickable trigger container. The source animates this container between 0 and 45 degrees.
FloatingButtonItem.childrenReactNode—Required content rendered inside an animated list item.

Accessibility

  • The component itself renders the trigger as a clickable motion.div rather than a native button, so provide an accessible button element through triggerContent, as shown in the examples.
  • Add an aria-label or visible accessible name to icon-only trigger and action buttons.
  • The source does not expose expanded state, controls, or keyboard interaction on the trigger container; consider wrapping or adapting the component if full keyboard menu behavior is required.
  • Ensure each action has a clear accessible name, especially when its content is icon-only.
  • Clicking outside the trigger closes the menu, but the source does not automatically manage focus when opening or closing.
