Guidance

Person or entity representation

Represent a person or entity visually.

Use when

  • Use to visually represent people or entities in collaborative or social contexts. Do not rely on avatars alone when names or roles are needed for disambiguation.

Avoid when

  • Avoid using avatar as a default simply because it is available in the library. Choose it only when its interaction cost, visibility, and behavior match the job to be done.
Task length
micro
Interaction cost
low
Interruptiveness

Preferred alternatives

Anti-patterns

Usage

previews.components.avatar.default.blade.php Blade 
<div class="flex items-center gap-3">
    <x-ui.avatar size="sm" fallback="JD" alt="{{ __('Jane Doe') }}" />

Accessibility & localization

WCAG 2.2 AA RTL-ready data-slot Keyboard focus-visible Localized labels
  • Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
  • Uses semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling/scripting hooks.
  • Focus-visible rings use the ring token so keyboard focus is always visible.
  • Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
  • Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
  • Labels go through __() and the component uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start, start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.

Source

The exact, editable file ui:add writes into your app — copy it or own the whole thing. Previews render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
