Shadcn Resizable: Flexible Multi-Panel Layouts
Shadcn Resizable is a layout component for building adjustable multi-panel interfaces: code editors, IDE-style dashboards, and canvas tools where users control panel sizes. Built on react-resizable-panels by bvaughn, it supports mouse, touch, and keyboard dragging while integrating seamlessly with Radix UI components and full Shadcn Create style compatibility.
It provides horizontal and vertical draggable dividers between panels, with snapping, collapsible behavior, and persistent size state so users' layout preferences are remembered.
ReUI lists resizable components inside dashboards, editors, and split-view layouts so you evaluate divider affordance, collapse triggers, and how panels pair with Shadcn Card content. The sections below explain what the component is, why teams use it, key features, and integration guidance.
What is Shadcn Resizable?
A resizable panel group is a container that holds one or more draggable dividers and panels, allowing users to adjust panel widths or heights. Shadcn Resizable wraps react-resizable-panels to provide keyboard-accessible dragging, touch support, and collapsible panel logic.
Components here show horizontal splits (sidebar + content), vertical splits (editor + preview), and nested splits for complex UIs. They help you decide panel defaults, min/max sizes, and whether to persist layout state to localStorage so users' preferences are remembered on return visits.
Why Use Shadcn Resizable?
Teams use resizable panels when users benefit from controlling layout. Code editors, data dashboards, and design tools all let power users customize how much space each view occupies, improving focus and productivity.
Searchers look for 'react split pane', 'draggable panel layout', and 'resizable dashboard'. This page answers with realistic components showing how to build editor and dashboard layouts where panels adjust dynamically, and how to pair resizable with Shadcn Card content containers.
Shadcn Resizable Features
- Horizontal and Vertical Splits. Set orientation to 'horizontal' (side-by-side) or 'vertical' (stacked); nest groups for complex multi-pane layouts.
- Draggable Dividers. Mouse, touch, and keyboard users can drag dividers to resize panels. Cursor changes to col-resize or row-resize for affordance.
- Min and Max Constraints. Set minSize and maxSize on each panel to prevent collapse or excessive expansion; useful for sidebars and fixed-width components.
- Collapsible Panels. Add collapse triggers or double-click dividers to collapse/expand panels; great for hiding sidebar navigation on mobile.
- State Persistence. Pair with localStorage to save user's layout preferences so resizing is remembered across page reloads.
Integrating with Other Components
Place Shadcn Card or custom content inside each ResizablePanel to create modular, resizable sections. Use Shadcn Button on panel headers for collapsing, full-screen, or other panel-specific actions.
Pair resizable with Shadcn Navigation Menu or Shadcn Sidebar in the left panel, and content views in the center/right panels. Add Shadcn Tabs inside panels for multi-view switching within a single panel.
Use Shadcn Tooltip on the resize handle to hint 'Drag to resize' on hover. Combine with Shadcn Dialog or Shadcn Sheet for modal actions that don't permanently change the layout.
