Top Drawer Quick Actions for Ark UI

A top Quick Actions drawer with six buttons in three columns: New File, Upload, Download, Share, Settings, and More.

Quick Actions drops from the top. Six outline buttons sit in three columns: New File, Upload, Download, Share, Settings, and More, each an icon over a label.

Use it for common actions at the top of a phone screen. If one action is the primary one, a Button in the page is clearer. In React, Ark UI does not perform the action.

FAQ

How is the grid laid out?

A grid grid-cols-3 gap-4, capped at max-w-2xl and centered with mx-auto. Each button is h-20 flex-col, so the icon sits over the label.

What do screen readers hear for each action?

The label, such as New File or Upload. The icons are aria-hidden.

Do the actions do anything?

Not yet: they're outline Buttons with no handler. Run each action from its button, and close the drawer once it starts: Pass open to Drawer and read details.open in onOpenChange.

Why do New File and More share an icon?

Both use the plus icon in this demo. Give More its own icon, such as an ellipsis, so the two don't look alike.

How does Quick Actions open the drawer?

An outline button opens the drawer. Its text, Quick Actions, is the accessible name. DrawerTrigger takes asChild and merges onto the one Button inside it. The bolt icon before it is aria-hidden.

How does the drawer open from the top?

swipeDirection="up" on Drawer puts it on the top edge. The prop names the swipe that closes the drawer, so up docks it at the top; leave it out for a bottom drawer.
