Copy Text

Click-to-copy text that morphs into a checkmark and success label briefly before reverting for React applications.

A small interaction that does one thing exceptionally well: render a string, copy it on click, and confirm the action with a tasteful morph. The text and trailing icon both swap via Motion's AnimatePresence — the original label slides up and fades out while a check icon and "Copied" message slide in from below, then the whole pair reverts after a configurable timeout. Built on the standard navigator.clipboard.writeText API with a graceful fallback path, an aria-live region for screen readers, and a <button> wrapper so keyboard users can trigger it with Enter or Space. Pass a custom copyValue when the displayed text differs from the value you want on the clipboard — handy for masked tokens, install commands, or shortened URLs. Drop it into API key panels, install instructions, code snippets, share cards, or anywhere a tiny dose of friction would otherwise force users to highlight text manually.
