Slider
Numeric range controls — a compact draggable track (single or two-thumb range), an angle dial, a two-handle compare slider, a discrete pip/scrubber selector for settings panels, or a springy elastic slider that stretches past its bounds.
Preview
Controls
Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.
Installation
php artisan ui:add slider
Behavior layer (Alpine)
This component installs a self-registering Alpine module to
resources/js/ui/slider.js. Import the behavior layer once
from your bundle so it loads (it hooks alpine:init):
import './slider.js';

Guidance
Continuous value controlAdjust an intuitive continuous value.
Use when
- Use when continuous adjustment or immediate visual feedback helps users choose a value. Do not use for precise values or broad ranges without good landmarks; direct entry is better when accuracy matters.
Avoid when
- Only use when approximate continuous adjustment is meaningful; pair it with direct entry when precision matters.
- Task length
- micro
- Interaction cost
- medium
- Interruptiveness
- none
- Input precision
- approximate
- Mobile / touch risk
- medium
- Accessibility risk
- high
- Needs background context
- No
- Comparison needed
- No
Preferred alternatives
- Number field for precise entry
- Select for discrete values
Anti-patterns
- Using sliders for precise or unbounded values

Capabilities
Behavior
- Uses server-rendered Blade and semantic HTML.
- Installs a JavaScript behavior module when the registry item includes resources/js/ui files.
- Declares registry capability flags: a11y, interactive, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.
Usage
<div class="w-80 max-w-full space-y-6">
<x-ui.slider
name="volume"
label="{{ __('Volume') }}"
:value="40"
:step="10"
show-value
show-steps
suffix="%"
/>
<x-ui.slider
name="price"
label="{{ __('Price range') }}"
range
:value="20"
:value-end="80"
show-value
value-position="tooltip"
prefix="$"
/>
</div>
Accessibility & localization
data-slot
Keyboard focus-visible
Localized labels
- Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
- Uses semantic HTML and a stable
data-slotattribute for styling/scripting hooks. - Focus-visible rings use the
ringtoken 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.
