marquee
A composable marquee built on `react-fast-marquee`, with a full-width clipped viewport, scrolling content, optional edge fades, and spaced items. It exports separate wrapper, content, fade, and item components for flexible layouts.
Installed with shadcn add · 3 workarounds (recipe written by a coding agent) · theme from registry.json

Requires @kibo-ui in the registries of your components.json (shadcn adds official directory namespaces automatically).
Usage
usage.tsx
import { Marquee, MarqueeContent, MarqueeItem } from "@/components/kibo-ui/marquee";<Marquee> <MarqueeContent> <MarqueeItem>Item one</MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem>Item two</MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem>Item three</MarqueeItem> </MarqueeContent></Marquee>- Show logos, partner brands, testimonials, announcements, or compact lists in a continuously scrolling horizontal row.
- Use for secondary or ambient content where users do not need to inspect every item immediately.
- Add edge fades when the marquee should visually blend into the surrounding background.
- Compose with custom children and classes when the default item spacing or animation behavior needs adjustment.
Examples
Logo strip with edge fades
Displays a continuously scrolling row of brand marks with decorative fades at both edges.
logo-strip-with-edge-fades.tsx
import { Marquee, MarqueeContent, MarqueeFade, MarqueeItem } from "@/components/kibo-ui/marquee";<Marquee> <MarqueeFade side="left" aria-hidden="true" /> <MarqueeContent speed={40}> <MarqueeItem><img src="/logos/acme.svg" alt="Acme" /></MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem><img src="/logos/vertex.svg" alt="Vertex" /></MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem><img src="/logos/nova.svg" alt="Nova" /></MarqueeItem> </MarqueeContent> <MarqueeFade side="right" aria-hidden="true" /></Marquee>Paused announcement marquee
Uses a slower marquee that pauses when hovered or clicked.
paused-announcement-marquee.tsx
import { Marquee, MarqueeContent, MarqueeItem } from "@/components/kibo-ui/marquee";<Marquee aria-label="Latest announcements"> <MarqueeContent speed={25} pauseOnHover pauseOnClick> <MarqueeItem>Free shipping on orders over $50</MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem>New arrivals are now available</MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem>Members receive early access</MarqueeItem> </MarqueeContent></Marquee>Right-to-left testimonial row
Scrolls testimonial cards in the opposite direction and stops after a fixed number of loops.
right-to-left-testimonial-row.tsx
import { Marquee, MarqueeContent, MarqueeItem } from "@/components/kibo-ui/marquee";<Marquee> <MarqueeContent direction="right" loop={2} autoFill={false}> <MarqueeItem className="w-72 rounded-lg border p-4">“Beautifully simple.”</MarqueeItem> <MarqueeItem className="w-72 rounded-lg border p-4">“A smooth experience.”</MarqueeItem> </MarqueeContent></Marquee>API reference
PropTypeDefaultDescription
MarqueeHTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>nullOuter viewport wrapper. Applies `relative w-full overflow-hidden` by default; supports all standard HTML div attributes, including `className`, `children`, and event handlers.
MarqueeContentFastMarqueePropsnullScrolling content component backed by `react-fast-marquee`. Supports the library's marquee props, including `children`, `style`, `className`, `play`, `pauseOnHover`, `pauseOnClick`, `direction` (`"left"` or `"right"`), `speed`, `delay`, `loop`, `gradient`, `gradientColor`, `gradientWidth`, `autoFill`, `onFinish`, `onCycleComplete`, and `onMount`. This wrapper defaults `loop` to `0`, `autoFill` to `true`, and `pauseOnHover` to `true`.
MarqueeFadeHTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement> & { side: "left" | "right" }nullAn absolute edge gradient overlay. `side` is required and selects the left or right fade; standard HTML div attributes and `className` are also supported. Uses `w-24` and a background-colored transparent gradient by default.
MarqueeItemHTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>nullIndividual item wrapper. Supports all standard HTML div attributes and applies `mx-2 flex-shrink-0 object-contain` by default.
Accessibility
- The components do not add ARIA roles, labels, or announcements automatically; provide an accessible label or surrounding semantic context when the marquee conveys meaningful information.
- Use meaningful `alt` text for informative images inside `MarqueeItem`; use empty alt text for decorative images.
- Do not rely on hover alone to pause important content. Enable `pauseOnClick` or provide an external control using the `play` prop when users need keyboard-accessible motion control.
- Consider honoring `prefers-reduced-motion` by rendering `MarqueeContent` with `play={false}` or otherwise disabling animation for users who request reduced motion.
- Mark purely decorative `MarqueeFade` elements with `aria-hidden="true"` so they are ignored by assistive technologies.
- Because `autoFill` can duplicate content to fill the row, avoid placing unique interactive controls inside a continuously duplicated marquee unless their duplicated behavior is intentional.
