GlassKit UI

Button

A D-pad-focusable action. Renders a real <button> with the focusable class, so useDpad walks it and activates it on Enter/Space. Primary wears the accent fill; positive and danger carry the semantic accept and destroy fills; ghost is chrome-less.

Installation

npx @glasskit-ui/cli add button

Install the SDK (it provides GlassViewport, useDpad and the stylesheet), then copy these files into your project:

npm install @glasskit-ui/react
// components/lib/utils.tsimport { clsx, type ClassValue } from "clsx";import { twMerge } from "tailwind-merge";export type { ClassValue };/** * Merge class names the shadcn way: clsx joins conditionals, tailwind-merge * de-dupes conflicting Tailwind utilities so a consumer's `className` override * wins (e.g. passing `px-2` beats the component's `px-6`). Lens components are * Tailwind utilities + `--gk-*` tokens, so this de-dupe matters. */export function cn(...inputs: ClassValue[]): string {  return twMerge(clsx(inputs));}/** * Accessible name from a free-form `label` prop: the label itself when it's a * plain string, otherwise undefined (a ReactNode can't become an aria-label). */export function stringLabel(label: unknown): string | undefined {  return typeof label === "string" ? label : undefined;}
// components/glasskit/button.tsximport type { ReactNode } from "react";import { cn } from "../lib/utils";/** * <Button> — a D-pad-focusable action. Renders a real <button> carrying * the `focusable` class, so `useDpad()` includes it in spatial navigation * and activates it on Enter/Space (the hook calls `.click()`, which fires * `onClick`). `primary` wears the accent fill; `positive`/`danger` carry the * semantic accept/destroy fills (calls, irreversible confirms); `ghost` is * chrome-less (just text + focus ring + press) for toolbars and icon rows. */export function Button({  children,  variant = "secondary",  icon,  disabled,  onClick,  type = "button",  initialFocus = false,  "aria-label": ariaLabel,  className,}: {  /** The label. Omit for an icon-only button, but then set `aria-label`. */  children?: ReactNode;  variant?: "primary" | "secondary" | "ghost" | "positive" | "danger";  /** Optional leading glyph — typically a <Icon>. */  icon?: ReactNode;  disabled?: boolean;  onClick?: () => void;  type?: "button" | "submit" | "reset";  /** Seed the D-pad ring here when the screen mounts (`data-autofocus`). */  initialFocus?: boolean;  /** Accessible name — required for an icon-only button. */  "aria-label"?: string;  className?: string;}) {  return (    <button      type={type}      disabled={disabled}      onClick={onClick}      aria-label={ariaLabel}      data-autofocus={initialFocus || undefined}      className={cn(        "focusable press-scale t-body inline-flex items-center justify-center gap-2 rounded-2xl",        variant === "primary"          ?
