Drop Zone

Basic

DropZone provides support for mouse, keyboard, and touch interactions. Simply connect the onDrop prop to handle all the drop actions. Additionally, you’ll receive real-time updates through onDropEnter, onDropMove, and onDropExit events as users interact with the drop zone.

Installation

Install the component via the CLI in one command.

npx shadcn@latest add @intentui/drop-zone

Manual installation

Use this approach if you prefer to install and wire up the component yourself instead of using the CLI.

npm install react-aria-components

Anatomy

import { DropZone } from "@/components/ui/drop-zone"
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/field"

<DropZone>
  <Label>Toss your stuff here</Label>
</DropZone>

Using FileTrigger

The FileTrigger component can be used to select files from the file system, making it an excellent tool for managing files that have been dragged and dropped into the browser.
