Anatomy

How the parts nest — every slot the component exposes, in composition order.

SidebarProvider

├── Sidebar

│ └── SidebarContent

│ └── SidebarGroup

│ └── SidebarMenu

│ └── SidebarMenuItem

│ └── SidebarMenuButton

└── SidebarTrigger

Features

Persists the open/collapsed state in a sidebar_state cookie (7-day max-age), so a full page reload keeps the sidebar as the user left it.
Automatically switches to a Sheet-based drawer on mobile via useIsMobile() — no separate mobile layout to build.

API reference

Props for each part of the component. All native element props are also forwarded.

SidebarProvider

Wraps the shell; owns collapse state and keyboard shortcut.

defaultOpenboolean

Whether the sidebar starts expanded.

Defaulttrue

openboolean

The controlled open (expanded) state.

onOpenChange(open: boolean) => void

Called when the open state changes.

Sidebar parts

SidebarMenuButtonReactNode: A nav row; compose inside SidebarMenuItem / SidebarGroup.
SidebarTrigger—: Toggles the sidebar; place it in your main content.

Accessibility

Built to be keyboard-navigable and screen-reader friendly out of the box.

Key	Function
`⌘/Ctrl+B`	Toggles the sidebar from anywhere in the app.
`Tab`	Moves through the menu buttons.
`Enter`	Activates the focused item.

Built as a nav landmark; the collapsed rail keeps icons reachable.
On mobile it becomes a sheet — ensure the trigger is always reachable.
Give icon-only collapsed items accessible names (tooltips or labels).

Guidelines

Conventions that keep usage consistent across an app.

Use for app shells with persistent navigation.
Group links with labels and keep the list shallow.

Don’t

Don’t use a sidebar for a content site with few pages.
Don’t hide the toggle — users need a way back.
