Usage
usage.tsx
import { DottedMap } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"import type { Marker } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"const markers: Marker[] = [ { lat: 37.5665, lng: 126.978, size: 0.3 }, { lat: 40.7128, lng: -74.006, size: 0.3, pulse: false },]export default function Component() { return ( <div className="relative h-[500px] w-full overflow-hidden rounded-lg border"> <div className="to-background absolute inset-0 bg-radial from-transparent to-200%" /> <DottedMap markers={markers} pulse /> </div> )}- Use as a starting point for location-based dashboards or analytics views.
- Use to visualize offices, customers, events, or other geographic points.
- Use when you want animated map markers with a decorative dark or themed background.
- Use as a reference for combining DottedMap with a responsive container and visual overlay.
Examples
Pulse-enabled locations
Display multiple animated locations on a responsive map.
pulse-enabled-locations.tsx
import { DottedMap } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"import type { Marker } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"const markers: Marker[] = [ { lat: 51.5072, lng: -0.1276, size: 0.3 }, { lat: 35.6762, lng: 139.6503, size: 0.3 },]export default function Component() { return <DottedMap markers={markers} pulse />}Static location markers
Use per-marker pulse control to keep selected locations static.
static-location-markers.tsx
import { DottedMap } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"import type { Marker } from "@/registry/magicui/dotted-map"const markers: Marker[] = [ { lat: 48.8566, lng: 2.3522, size: 0.3, pulse: false }, { lat: -33.8688, lng: 151.2093, size: 0.3, pulse: false },]export default function Component() { return <DottedMap markers={markers} pulse />}API reference
PropTypeDefaultDescription
markersMarker[]nullArray of geographic markers passed to the DottedMap component. Each marker can specify latitude, longitude, size, and pulse behavior.
pulsebooleannullEnables the map's pulse animation. Individual markers can override this behavior with their own pulse value.
Accessibility
- The example does not provide an accessible name or text alternative for the visual map; add an accessible label or nearby descriptive text when the map conveys information.
- Ensure location data is also available in a non-visual format, such as a list or table, for screen-reader users.
- Do not rely on pulse animation alone to communicate status or importance.
- Respect reduced-motion preferences when adding or wrapping animated map usage in a production interface.
