Usage

usage.tsx

import { useState } from "react";import {  ListGroup,  ListHeader,  ListItem,  ListItems,  ListProvider,  type DragEndEvent,} from "@/components/kibo-ui/list";export function TaskList() {  const [items, setItems] = useState([    { id: "task-1", name: "Design dashboard", parent: "todo" },    { id: "task-2", name: "Review pull request", parent: "done" },  ]);  const handleDragEnd = ({ active, over }: DragEndEvent) => {    if (!over || active.id === over.id) return;    setItems((current) =>      current.map((item) =>        item.id === active.id ? { ...item, parent: String(over.id) } : item      )    );  };  return (    <ListProvider onDragEnd={handleDragEnd} className="min-h-96">      <div className="grid grid-cols-2 gap-4">        <ListGroup id="todo">          <ListHeader name="To do" color="#f59e0b" />          <ListItems>            {items              .filter((item) => item.parent === "todo")              .map((item, index) => (                <ListItem                  key={item.id}                  id={item.id}                  name={item.name}                  index={index}                  parent={item.parent}                />              ))}          </ListItems>        </ListGroup>        <ListGroup id="done">          <ListHeader name="Done" color="#22c55e" />          <ListItems>            {items              .filter((item) => item.parent === "done")              .map((item, index) => (                <ListItem                  key={item.id}                  id={item.id}                  name={item.name}                  index={index}                  parent={item.parent}                />              ))}          </ListItems>        </ListGroup>      </div>    </ListProvider>  );}

Use for task, feature, issue, or project lists grouped by status.
Use when items need to be dragged between status groups.
Use for lightweight kanban-style layouts without a full board abstraction.
Use when list item content needs to be replaced with custom React nodes.

Examples

Grouped task list

Render status groups with the built-in colored header and default item presentation.

grouped-task-list.tsx

import {  ListGroup,  ListHeader,  ListItem,  ListItems,  ListProvider,  type DragEndEvent,} from "@/components/kibo-ui/list";const handleDragEnd = (event: DragEndEvent) => {  console.log(event.active.id, event.over?.id);};export function GroupedTasks() {  return (    <ListProvider onDragEnd={handleDragEnd}>      <ListGroup id="backlog">        <ListHeader name="Backlog" color="#64748b" />        <ListItems>          <ListItem            id="task-1"            name="Write release notes"            index={0}            parent="backlog"          />        </ListItems>      </ListGroup>    </ListProvider>  );}

Custom list item content

Replace the default item name with custom React content while retaining draggable behavior.

custom-list-item-content.tsx

import {  ListGroup,  ListHeader,  ListItem,  ListItems,  ListProvider,} from "@/components/kibo-ui/list";export function CustomItems() {  return (    <ListProvider onDragEnd={() => undefined}>      <ListGroup id="review">        <ListHeader name="In review" color="#8b5cf6" />        <ListItems>          <ListItem id="feature-1" name="Search" index={0} parent="review">            <div className="flex w-full items-center justify-between">              <span className="font-medium">Search</span>              <span className="text-muted-foreground text-xs">High priority</span>            </div>          </ListItem>        </ListItems>      </ListGroup>    </ListProvider>  );}
