Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @magicui/animated-list-demo

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

Usage

usage.tsx
import AnimatedListDemo from "@/registry/magicui/animated-list-demo"export default function Example() {  return <AnimatedListDemo />}
  • Show an activity feed, notification stream, or recent-events panel with staggered entrance animations.
  • Use as a visual example or starting point for combining AnimatedList with custom notification content.
  • Place in dashboards, product updates, payment activity, or user-event interfaces where a compact animated feed is useful.

Examples

Dashboard activity panel

Adds spacing and a constrained width around the animated notification feed.

dashboard-activity-panel.tsx
import AnimatedListDemo from "@/registry/magicui/animated-list-demo"export default function ActivityPanel() {  return <AnimatedListDemo className="mx-auto max-w-2xl" />}

Full-width section

Uses the component as the content of a larger page section.

full-width-section.tsx
import AnimatedListDemo from "@/registry/magicui/animated-list-demo"export default function UpdatesSection() {  return (    <section className="w-full py-10">      <h2 className="mb-4 text-2xl font-semibold">Recent activity</h2>      <AnimatedListDemo className="rounded-xl border" />    </section>  )}

Centered compact presentation

Centers the demo and limits its width for a marketing or documentation layout.

centered-compact-presentation.tsx
import AnimatedListDemo from "@/registry/magicui/animated-list-demo"export default function NotificationPreview() {  return (    <div className="flex justify-center">      <AnimatedListDemo className="max-w-md" />    </div>  )}

API reference

classNamestringnullOptional CSS class name merged onto the outer 500px-tall container using cn().

Accessibility

  • The component renders notification content as figure elements, with visible text for each notification name, time, and description.
  • Emoji icons are rendered as visible text inside spans and are not assigned an explicit accessible label; provide accessible alternatives if the emoji conveys essential information.
  • The source does not include an explicit reduced-motion implementation. Consider adding motion-reduction handling in the AnimatedList implementation or surrounding application styles.
  • The source does not add ARIA live-region behavior, so dynamically animated notifications are not automatically announced by assistive technologies.
  • Hover scaling is visual only and does not provide essential information exclusively through hover.
