Examples
Default centered demo
The registry example with the toggle centered in a padded container.
default-centered-demo.tsx
import { AnimatedThemeToggler } from "@/registry/magicui/animated-theme-toggler"export default function ThemeToggleDemo() { return ( <div className="flex justify-center p-6"> <AnimatedThemeToggler /> </div> )}Header placement
Places the same control at the end of a simple application header.
header-placement.tsx
import { AnimatedThemeToggler } from "@/registry/magicui/animated-theme-toggler"export default function HeaderThemeToggle() { return ( <header className="flex items-center justify-between border-b p-4"> <span className="font-semibold">Acme</span> <AnimatedThemeToggler /> </header> )}Settings row
Uses the toggle as the control in a theme settings row.
settings-row.tsx
import { AnimatedThemeToggler } from "@/registry/magicui/animated-theme-toggler"export default function ThemeSetting() { return ( <div className="flex items-center justify-between rounded-lg border p-4"> <div> <p className="font-medium">Appearance</p> <p className="text-muted-foreground text-sm">Switch between light and dark mode.</p> </div> <AnimatedThemeToggler /> </div> )}Accessibility
- The demo itself adds no label, keyboard handler, or ARIA attributes; those behaviors come from AnimatedThemeToggler.
- Verify that the rendered toggle has an accessible name, such as an aria-label or visible text, in the installed dependency version.
- Keep the control keyboard accessible and preserve a visible focus indicator when placing it in a custom layout.
- Theme changes should not be communicated by color alone; the toggle’s icon or accessible name should identify its purpose and state.
