One accidental click shouldn't erase someone's data. This React alert dialog uses bold red destructive styling on both the trigger and action buttons to signal danger before deleting. Built with shadcn/ui and Radix UI, the color psychology and explicit confirmation prevent accidental deletions. Perfect for delete actions, account closures, or any irreversible operation where users need that critical are-you-absolutely-sure moment.
