IDE-style interfaces need resizable panels—users want to adjust sidebar width without losing file list scroll position or preview pane content. This React pattern combines shadcn/ui's ResizablePanel with ScrollArea in each section for independent scrolling. Built with Radix UI, the ResizableHandle with withHandle prop provides drag affordance, minSize prevents panels from collapsing too small, and flex-1 ScrollAreas fill available space. Perfect for code editors, file explorers, email clients, or any interface requiring user-adjustable layouts with scrollable content.
