Slider

Open source Core

Numeric range controls — a draggable track (single or two-thumb range, with discrete pips and scrubber variants), an angle dial, an exposure ticker, a media scrubber, or a springy elastic slider that stretches past its bounds.

Note

This component ships an Alpine behavior module at resources/js/ui/scrubber.js. Import it once from your bundle so it registers on alpine:init:

resources/js/ui/index.js JS
import './scrubber.js';

# Brok UI: Scrubber (`scrubber`)

A Figma-style drag-to-scrub numeric control: drag anywhere along a labeled track to scrub the value, with optional tick marks, a live tabular-nums readout, and a thumb that springs in on hover or focus. Fully keyboard-accessible and direction-aware.

Brok UI is a Laravel Blade component registry. Installed components are plain Blade files the app owns.

## Install

```bash
php artisan ui:add scrubber
```

## Usage

```blade
<div class="flex min-h-40 w-full items-center justify-center rounded-lg border border-border bg-card p-8">
    <x-ui.scrubber class="w-full max-w-xs" />
</div>
```

## Props

- `name` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Renders a hidden input with this name for form posts.
- `min` (int, default `0`) — Minimum value.
- `max` (int, default `100`) — Maximum value.
- `step` (int, default `1`) — Keyboard/drag snap increment.
- `value` (int, default `50`) — Current value.
- `label` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Optional text label shown beside the readout.
- `ticks` (bool, default `true`) — Shows evenly spaced tick marks under the track (capped at 20) when true.
- `unit` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Suffix appended to the readout, such as "px" or "%".

## Use when

- Use when continuous adjustment or immediate visual feedback helps users choose a value.
- Building a Figma-style numeric control where dragging anywhere on the track, not just the thumb, scrubs the value.
- Wanting optional tick marks and a live tabular-nums readout beside a compact draggable control.

## Avoid when

- Do not use for precise values or broad ranges without good landmarks; direct entry is better when accuracy matters.
- Wanting the thumb to stay visible at rest rather than spring in on hover/focus; use slider instead.

## Anti-patterns

- Using sliders for precise or unbounded values

## Rules

- Use the `<brok:scrubber>` tag (or `<x-ui.scrubber>`) in Blade; do not rewrite the component.
- Prefer the documented props and variants over utility-class overrides; when a utility must win, use the `!` important modifier.
- Use semantic design tokens (`bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`), never raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes; they are the styling and test hooks.

scrubber scrubber-control scrubber-fill scrubber-label scrubber-thumb scrubber-ticks scrubber-track scrubber-value

Behavior

  • Dragging anywhere along the control scrubs the value, snapped to step; the thumb scales in via a motion-safe spring on hover, focus or while dragging, and scales back out otherwise.
  • Arrow keys move the value by step.
  • Installs a JavaScript behavior module when the registry item includes resources/js/ui files.
  • Declares registry capability flags: a11y, interactive, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.

Guidance

Continuous value control

Adjust an intuitive continuous value.

Use when

  • Use when continuous adjustment or immediate visual feedback helps users choose a value.
  • Building a Figma-style numeric control where dragging anywhere on the track, not just the thumb, scrubs the value.
  • Wanting optional tick marks and a live tabular-nums readout beside a compact draggable control.

Avoid when

  • Do not use for precise values or broad ranges without good landmarks; direct entry is better when accuracy matters.
  • Wanting the thumb to stay visible at rest rather than spring in on hover/focus; use slider instead.

Use instead

  • Number field for precise entry
  • Select for discrete values

Anti-patterns

  • Using sliders for precise or unbounded values

managed
  • The thumb is a role="slider" with aria-valuemin/max/now and an aria-valuetext showing the formatted value with its unit.
  • Reduced motion keeps the thumb permanently at full scale instead of springing it in.
  • Semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling and 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 in the preview.
  • Labels go through __() and layout uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start), so it mirrors under dir="rtl" — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.
  • Dark mode uses the same semantic tokens under the dark class; high contrast follows forced-color system tokens.

Livewire

Needs wire:key

Add a stable wire:key when Livewire can reorder this interactive component.

livewire-component.blade.php Blade
<div wire:key="scrubber-{{ $record->id }}">
    <div class="flex min-h-40 w-full items-center justify-center rounded-lg border border-border bg-card p-8">
        <x-ui.scrubber class="w-full max-w-xs" />
    </div>
</div>

Validation

Validation support: native. Keep the error message connected with aria-describedby.

livewire-form.blade.php Blade
<form wire:submit="save" class="space-y-2">
    <brok:scrubber
        wire:model="value"
        :aria-invalid="$errors->has('value') ? 'true' : 'false'"
        aria-describedby="value-error"
    />

    @error('value')
        <p id="value-error" role="alert">{{ $message }}</p>
    @enderror

    <brok:button type="submit" wire:loading.attr="disabled">

    Scrubber — a Figma-style drag-to-scrub numeric control. Drag anywhere on the track
    to scrub the value (snapped to `step`); the fill and thumb are positioned with the

/**
 * Scrubber behavior — a Figma-style drag-to-scrub numeric control.
 *
 * Holds one numeric `value`, clamped to [min, max] and snapped to `step`. The fill and
 * thumb are positioned with the logical `inset-inline-start`, so the control mirrors
 * automatically under `dir="rtl"`; pointer and keyboard input account for direction so
 * dragging and arrow keys always feel correct.
 *
 * Dragging anywhere on the track scrubs the value continuously; pointermove updates the
 * value while the pointer is held. Pointer listeners are added to `document` only for
 * the duration of a drag and are always removed on pointerup AND in `destroy()`, so
 * unmounting mid-drag can't leak.
 *
 * Self-registers on `alpine:init` so import order does not matter — import this file
 * once from your bundle (e.g. resources/js/ui/index.js).
