Overview

Show task completion honestly without over-promising precision. This entry is written as a registry-ready component spec: useful to humans, copyable by AI tools, and easy to map to a future shadcn registry item.

Accessibility notes

  • Use semantic HTML or the matching Radix primitive before custom roles.
  • Keep focus-visible states obvious without adding decorative glow.
  • Ensure icon-only controls have an accessible label.
  • Do not rely on color alone for state or validation.
shadcn/ui progress

shadcn implementation

Use Radix Progress through the matching shadcn component when possible.

Use shadcn tokens for background, border, ring, muted text, radius, and state variants. Keep component-specific classes local and copyable.

optional adapter

HeroUI mapping

Progress can map to a HeroUI component only as an optional adapter. Keep UnBoring copy and token language framework-neutral.

AI Prompt
Create a Progress component for an AI-generated interface using shadcn-style composition. Use shadcn/ui progress as the implementation base. The component should support default, muted, success, warning, destructive variants and default, hover, focus-visible, active, disabled, loading states. Include clear anatomy for Root, Track, Indicator, Label. Keep the visual language black, white, and gray with subtle borders, practical spacing, accessible focus states, and no decorative noise.
Negative Prompt
Do not invent a custom component API when shadcn/ui progress already covers the base behavior. Avoid random gradients, oversized radii, unclear disabled states, missing labels, icon-only controls without accessible names, and variants that change layout unexpectedly.
Implementation Notes
Base: shadcn/ui progress
Primitive: Radix Progress
Tailwind: Use shadcn tokens for background, border, ring, muted text, radius, and state variants. Keep component-specific classes local and copyable.
Dependency: Use Radix Progress through the matching shadcn component when possible.

Usage notes

Short guidance for humans and AI tools before copying the component.

Progress helps teams show task completion honestly without over-promising precision. It should feel like a reusable product primitive, not a one-off decoration.

Start from shadcn/ui progress. Use Radix Progress through the matching shadcn component when possible. Keep variants token-driven and keep states predictable.

Do not invent a custom component API when shadcn/ui progress already covers the base behavior. Avoid random gradients, oversized radii, unclear disabled states, missing labels, icon-only controls without accessible names, and variants that change layout unexpectedly.
