Confetti

Confetti provides a canvas-based celebration effect powered by canvas-confetti, with both an imperative canvas component and a button wrapper that fires confetti from the button’s center. The canvas component can auto-fire on mount or be controlled through a ref.

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @magicui/confetti

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

Usage

usage.tsx
import { ConfettiButton } from "@/components/ui/confetti"export function Example() {  return <ConfettiButton>Celebrate</ConfettiButton>}
  • Celebrate successful actions such as completing onboarding, purchasing, submitting a form, or reaching a milestone.
  • Add a brief delight moment after a user-visible achievement or reward.
  • Use ConfettiButton for a self-contained celebration CTA centered on the clicked button.
  • Use Confetti when confetti needs to be triggered programmatically from custom UI or application state.

Examples

Celebrate a successful action

Fire confetti after a user completes a meaningful task by using the button wrapper.

celebrate-a-successful-action.tsx
import { ConfettiButton } from "@/components/ui/confetti"export function CompletionAction() {  return <ConfettiButton>Complete setup</ConfettiButton>}

Control confetti with a ref

Prevent automatic firing and trigger the canvas animation from custom application logic.

control-confetti-with-a-ref.tsx
import { useRef } from "react"import { Confetti, type ConfettiRef } from "@/components/ui/confetti"export function ControlledConfetti() {  const confettiRef = useRef<ConfettiRef>(null)  return (    <>      <Confetti ref={confettiRef} manualstart className="pointer-events-none fixed inset-0 z-50 h-full w-full" />      <button type="button" onClick={() => void confettiRef.current?.fire()}>        Claim reward      </button>    </>  )}

Customize particle options

Provide base canvas-confetti options and override them for a particular fire call through the ref.

customize-particle-options.tsx
import { useRef } from "react"import { Confetti, type ConfettiRef } from "@/components/ui/confetti"export function CustomConfetti() {  const confettiRef = useRef<ConfettiRef>(null)  return (    <>      <Confetti        ref={confettiRef}        manualstart        options={{ particleCount: 120, spread: 80, colors: ["#7c3aed", "#06b6d4"] }}        className="pointer-events-none fixed inset-0 h-full w-full"      />      <button type="button" onClick={() => void confettiRef.current?.fire({ angle: 90 })}>        Launch confetti      </button>    </>  )}

Use a custom Button API

Pass props supported by the local Button component while retaining the button-centered confetti behavior.

use-a-custom-button-api.tsx
import { ConfettiButton } from "@/components/ui/confetti"export function RewardButton() {  return (    <ConfettiButton variant="outline" size="lg" options={{ particleCount: 80, spread: 60 }}>      Redeem reward    </ConfettiButton>  )}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
Confetti.refReact.Ref<ConfettiRef>nullOptional ref exposing fire(options?), which invokes the canvas-confetti instance and returns Promise<void> | void.
Confetti.optionsConfettiOptionsundefinedBase canvas-confetti options merged into every fire call; options passed to fire take precedence.
Confetti.globalOptionsGlobalOptions{ resize: true, useWorker: true }Options passed when creating the canvas-confetti instance. The component also supplies resize: true and useWorker: true before applying these values.
Confetti.manualstartbooleanfalseWhen false, fires confetti after mount. When true, suppresses the automatic initial fire so the component can be controlled through its ref.
Confetti.childrenReactNodeundefinedContent rendered after the canvas inside the context provider.
Confetti.classNamestringundefinedCSS class applied to the rendered canvas.
Confetti.canvasPropsReact.ComponentPropsWithRef<"canvas">undefinedAll other standard canvas props, including canvas attributes, event handlers, style, id, and ref-related props supported by the source type. They are spread onto the canvas.
ConfettiButton.optionsConfettiOptions & ConfettiGlobalOptions & { canvas?: HTMLCanvasElement }undefinedcanvas-confetti options accepted by the button wrapper. The animation uses zIndex: 9999 by default and always sets origin to the clicked button’s center.
ConfettiButton.buttonPropsReact.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof Button>undefinedAll non-ref props supported by the local Button component, including its children, styling props, disabled state, className, and event handlers.
ConfettiButton.refReact.Ref<HTMLButtonElement>nullOptional forwarded ref to the underlying Button element.

Accessibility

  • ConfettiButton renders a native Button component with type="button", so it does not submit a surrounding form by default.
  • The wrapper calls the supplied onClick handler first and skips confetti when the event is defaultPrevented, preserving expected event-cancellation behavior.
  • The canvas has no built-in accessible name or decorative semantics. If it is purely visual, pass aria-hidden="true" and ensure it does not obscure interactive content with appropriate pointer-events and positioning.
  • Keep the celebration optional and non-essential: the UI action and success state must remain understandable without animation.
  • Respect reduced-motion preferences in the surrounding application if the celebration could be distracting; this component does not implement reduced-motion handling itself.
  • ConfettiButton does not add a label automatically, so provide meaningful children or an accessible label through the supported Button props.
