Alert

A React component in Beamline's Feedback category, in the free sample.

A message that stays until it is dealt with: what happened, what to do, an action; danger and warning are announced; dismissing folds its height away.

Use it for

  • Persistent problems or notices on a page: failing webhook, expiring card, maintenance.

Not for

  • Brief results of an action (toast).
  • Field errors (under the field).

Anatomy

  • wrap (folds on dismiss)
  • alert (m-surface; tone tint composed over the role's fill)
  • icon (tone colour)
  • title
  • body
  • actions
  • dismiss (ghost icon Button sm)

States

  • shown
  • folding away

Keyboard

  • Dismiss is a button

Motion

Dismiss folds the height to zero and fades over --pui-duration-standard, then unmounts; reduced motion is instant. Nothing moves at rest.

More in Feedback

  • Announcement bar: A banner across the top for news and offers: messages take turns, a countdown ticks, and dismissing folds it away and can remember it.
  • Empty state: What a place will hold and the first step to fill it, instead of a blank; a compact size for panels and filtered tables.
  • Notification centre: Updates that wait to be read: a bell with the unread count opens All / Unread, new and earlier groups, and per item mark read or dismiss.
  • Progress: How much of a known task is done, or a moving bar when the length is unknown, with an optional label and value.
  • Skeleton: Holds the shape of content while it loads, then crossfades into it, so nothing jumps.
  • Spinner: A ring that spins while work runs and closes into a drawn check or cross when it ends.
  • Usage meter: An allowance and what fills it: one bar split by source, the room left, a warning near the limit and the overflow in its own red well past a notch at the…
