Who is it for?
Developers building assistant or messaging UIs.
When should I use it?
Chat-style briefs where the send affordance sits inside the composer.
When should I pick something else?
Plain forms with a separate submit row — use `Field` + `Textarea` + `Button`.

Install or copy

This ships on npm only; there is no copy-source brick for it.

You get
Every component from one import, with the theme tokens included. Updates arrive with your package manager.
You need
  • React 19 and Tailwind CSS 4, for example a Next.js app created with the Tailwind option.
  1. Install

    Terminal
    pnpm add @zedtech/zedkit-ui
  2. Load the styles

    Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so the @source line points it at the kit's class names. The path is relative to this file.

    src/app/globals.cssReplace the contents
    @import "tailwindcss";
    @import "@zedtech/zedkit-ui/styles.css";
    @source "../../node_modules/@zedtech/zedkit-ui/src/**/*.{ts,tsx}";
    
  3. Import and render

    src/app/page.tsxReplace the contents
    "use client";
    
    import { PromptInput } from "@zedtech/zedkit-ui";
    
    export default function Page() {
      return (
        <main className="p-8">
          <PromptInput sendLabel="Send" value={text} onChange={(e) => setText(e.target.value)} onSubmit={send} placeholder="Ask anything" aria-label="Message" />
        </main>
      );
    }
    

Package version 1.6.2.

Usage and states

Accessibility

Pass sendLabel (and cancelLabel when using cancel); the field keeps a visible label via aria-label or associated FieldLabel.

Troubleshooting

Send stays disabled — value is trimmed; whitespace-only counts as empty. Field does not grow — use `field-sizing-content` (Tailwind v4) on the consumer stylesheet.
