Scrollable Tags Scroll Area for Ark UI

A Technologies heading over one row of badges, from React and Next.js onward, in a panel that scrolls sideways.

Technologies heads a bordered panel. Inside, badges sit on one line, starting with React, Next.js, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS. The line scrolls sideways.

Keep tags on one scrolling line when wrapping would break a filter row. A Toggle Group fits if each tag is a control. In React, Ark UI does not choose which badges appear.

FAQ

Why do the badges stay on one line?

ScrollArea has whitespace-nowrap, and the inner row is flex w-max gap-2. w-max sizes the row to the badges, so the extra width scrolls. The frame is w-full, inside a max-w-md column.

What does each tag look like?

A Badge with variant secondary. There are twenty names, from React through CI/CD. p-4 on the row insets the first and last badge from the border.

Where is the sideways bar?

Both bars are already rendered. The wide row scrolls on the inline axis without a second ScrollBar.

Does the Technologies heading scroll?

No. The h3 is before ScrollArea, with font-semibold text-sm. Only the badge row is inside the area.

How do I change the space between badges?

gap-2 is on the flex row. Use gap-1 for a tighter row or gap-3 for a wider one. The badges stay variant secondary.

What draws the frame around the tags?

rounded-md border bg-background on ScrollArea. The column around the heading and the area is flex flex-col gap-2.
