Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @magicui/dock-demo-3

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

Usage

usage.tsx
import DockDemo from "@/registry/example/dock-demo-3"export default function Example() {  return <DockDemo />}
  • Use as a compact launcher for frequently accessed applications or services.
  • Use when demonstrating a magnifying MacOS-style navigation dock.
  • Use as a visual starting point for a desktop-inspired toolbar with branded icons.
  • Use in demos or landing pages where animated icon navigation is appropriate.

Examples

Standalone dock demo

Render the complete four-icon dock example.

standalone-dock-demo.tsx
import DockDemo from "@/registry/example/dock-demo-3"export default function Example() {  return <DockDemo />}

Centered showcase

Place the dock in a centered presentation area.

centered-showcase.tsx
import DockDemo from "@/registry/example/dock-demo-3"export default function Example() {  return (    <main className="flex min-h-[240px] items-center justify-center">      <DockDemo />    </main>  )}

Accessibility

  • The exported DockDemo component accepts no props.
  • The example's SVG icons do not define accessible names, visible labels, or aria-label attributes; provide accessible labels and appropriate link or button semantics when adapting the icons into an interactive launcher.
  • The icon graphics use currentColor or fixed brand colors, so verify sufficient contrast against the dock background in both light and dark themes.
  • The dock is a client component and its hover magnification should be tested with keyboard and other non-pointer input when used for actionable navigation.
