When errors need full context and recovery options, combine everything. This React alert stacks title, description, and action buttons with flex-col layout using shadcn/ui and Radix UI components. Built with justify-between to separate content from actions and gap-0.5 for tight title-description pairing, the pattern delivers complete error messaging without feeling overwhelming. Perfect for API failures, payment errors, or complex system errors where users need to know what failed, why it failed, and what they can do about it—all in one cohesive notification.
