  • Collect a score or review rating, such as a 1–5 star rating.
  • Show an interactive rating with optional half-star selection and hover preview.
  • Display a non-editable rating by setting the root to read-only.
  • Include a rating value in a form using the root’s `name` prop.

Examples

Basic rating

An uncontrolled five-item rating that starts at zero.

basic-rating.tsx
import { Rating, RatingItem } from "@/components/ui/rating";export function BasicRating() {  return (    <Rating aria-label="Rate this item">      {Array.from({ length: 5 }, (_, index) => (        <RatingItem key={index} />      ))}    </Rating>  );}

Controlled half-step rating

A controlled rating with half-star selection and the option to clear the current value.

controlled-half-step-rating.tsx
import { useState } from "react";import { Rating, RatingItem } from "@/components/ui/rating";export function HalfStepRating() {  const [value, setValue] = useState(3.5);  return (    <Rating      aria-label="Rate this item"      value={value}      onValueChange={setValue}      step={0.5}      clearable    >      {Array.from({ length: 5 }, (_, index) => (        <RatingItem key={index} />      ))}    </Rating>  );}

Read-only rating with size variant

A non-interactive display of a four-out-of-five rating using the small item size.

read-only-rating-with-size-variant.tsx
import { Rating, RatingItem } from "@/components/ui/rating";export function AverageRating() {  return (    <Rating aria-label="Average rating" value={4} readOnly size="sm">      {Array.from({ length: 5 }, (_, index) => (        <RatingItem key={index} />      ))}    </Rating>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
valuenumber—Controlled rating value. When provided, the root synchronizes its internal value with this prop.

activationMode"automatic" | "manual""automatic"In automatic mode, keyboard focus can select an item. In manual mode, activate the focused item with Enter or Space.
dir"ltr" | "rtl"Direction contextText direction. Used for direction-aware keyboard navigation and half-step pointer selection.
orientation"horizontal" | "vertical""horizontal"Item arrangement and corresponding arrow-key navigation axis.
size"default" | "sm" | "lg""default"Sets item dimensions to 5, 4, or 6 Tailwind size units, respectively.
asChildbooleanfalseRender the root through Radix Slot, merging its props with its child.
step0.5 | 11Rating increment. Half-step mode supports half-item pointer selection and stepwise arrow-key value changes.
clearablebooleanfalseWhen enabled, activating the currently selected value clears the rating to zero.
disabledbooleanfalseDisables the rating and its items.
readOnlybooleanfalsePrevents rating value and hover-preview changes while retaining the rendered rating.
requiredbooleanfalsePassed to the visually hidden form input.
namestring—Name for the visually hidden form input used to submit the rating value.
Rating native div propsReact.ComponentProps<"div">—The root accepts standard div props, including `className`, ARIA attributes, event handlers, and a ref. Root role, orientation, direction, and generated or supplied ID are set by the component.
indexnumberAutomatically assignedZero-based item index. The displayed item value is `index + 1`; if omitted, the item receives an index based on its instance.
RatingItem native button propsOmit<React.ComponentProps<"button">, "children">—Each item accepts standard button props, including `disabled`, `className`, ARIA attributes, event handlers, and a ref. The component sets its own radio role, type, item ID, checked state, and tab index.
RatingItem asChildbooleanfalseRender the item through Radix Slot, merging its props with its child.
RatingItem childrenReact.ReactNode | ((dataState: "full" | "partial" | "empty") => React.ReactNode)Star IconPlaceholderCustom item content, or a render function receiving the item’s fill state. If omitted, the item renders an `IconPlaceholder` configured with star icon names.

Accessibility

  • The root exposes a `radiogroup` role, and each item exposes a `radio` role with checked state and set-position metadata.
  • Provide an accessible name with an `aria-label` or `aria-labelledby` on the root.
  • Arrow keys navigate items; Home and End move to the first and last item. In horizontal orientation, Up and Down are ignored; in vertical orientation, Left and Right are ignored. Left and Right navigation is direction-aware in RTL.
  • With `activationMode="manual"`, use Enter or Space to activate the focused item. In automatic mode, keyboard focus can change the value.
  • Items participate in roving tab focus. Disabled items are excluded from navigation; the root’s `disabled` prop disables all items.
  • The root includes a visually hidden input for form submission when it is inside a form or is not attached to a form. Set `name` to submit its value.
