Cta Section
Call-to-action section. Title + description + 1-2 action buttons in a centred column on a tinted surface. The shape every landing page reaches for ("Ready to ship?" / "Start your trial" / "Read the docs"). Server component.
Preview
Rendered from the story the storybook (a11y) CI gate runs axe against — the preview can't show something that hasn't been verified.
Install
Two equivalent paths — the URL works in any shadcn-CLI setup; the alias works once you've registered @interlace in your components.json.

What this component does — the keyboard path, the measured colour, the text equivalent and the states it can be in. Every figure below is read out of the test or the source that enforces it by scripts/build-behavior-map.mjs, so nothing here can outlive the gate that keeps it true.
Measured contrast
packages/ui/__tests__/theme-contract-lock.test.ts ↗Every semantic colour pair this component's own source uses, measured against the shipped hexes in all 4 theme × scheme combinations. The tightest is primary on background at 8.39:1 (harbor · light), against a floor of 3:1.
| Pair | interlacelight | interlacedark | harborlight | harbordark | Floor |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| primary on backgroundprimary tint on the page surface | 8.80:1 | 11.79:1 | 8.39:1 | 10.03:1 | 3.0:1SC 1.4.11 |
| primary-foreground on primarycopy on a primary face | 8.80:1 | 11.79:1 | 8.86:1 | 10.03:1 | 4.5:1SC 1.4.3 |
| primary on cardprimary tint inside a card | 8.80:1 | 10.92:1 | 8.86:1 | 9.10:1 | 3.0:1SC 1.4.11 |
| card-foreground on cardcopy in a card | 19.65:1 | 15.71:1 | 18.72:1 | 14.69:1 | 4.5:1SC 1.4.3 |
| foreground on backgroundbody copy | 19.65:1 | 16.97:1 | 17.74:1 | 16.19:1 | 4.5:1SC 1.4.3 |
Text pairs are held to 4.5:1 (WCAG 2.2 SC 1.4.3); borders, rings and chart axes to 3:1 (SC 1.4.11 non-text). Bold is the worst cell in the row — the one a brand fork has to keep an eye on.
Runtime contract
packages/ui/vitest.config.ts ↗Where it renders, how narrow it survives, and whether its lines are inside the coverage gate — three answers a consumer needs before the paste, not after the bug.
- Render boundary
server componentRenders during SSR / RSC with no hydration cost. It can be imported from a server component without pulling the page into the client.
- Minimum viewport
MIN_VIEWPORT = 320Declared, not assumed. Below 320 CSS px the preflight contract draws a dev-mode outline — how to switch it on.

History
This component is at v1.0.0, first shipped in @interlace/ui 1.0.0. The version is stamped as a banner into the file the install writes, so the copy in your tree says which one you have — compare it with the number above before deciding whether to re-run the install.
No release note names this component yet. It shipped with the release above and has not changed since — see the full changelog for what moved elsewhere in the DS.
Import
2 named exports — pull the parts you need.
import { CTASection, MIN_VIEWPORT } from '@/components/ui/patterns/cta-section';Anatomy
Extracted from the primitive's JSDoc header. The source is the only documentation that can't drift.
<section data-slot="cta-section" data-min-viewport="320">
<Container>
<Stack align="center">
<Typography variant="h2">{title}</Typography>
<Typography variant="long">{description}</Typography>
<div>{actions}</div>
</Stack>
</Container>
</section>API reference
Parsed from the type declarations in the source — the same file the install writes into your tree, so this table can't drift from the component you get.
CTASectionProps
Also accepts every <section> attribute.
| Prop | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| title | React.ReactNode | — |
| description | React.ReactNode | — |
| actions | React.ReactNode | Actions row — typically 1-2 Buttons. |
| tone | CTATone | Surface tone. `subtle` (default) uses brand-tinted neutral; `primary` is fully branded; `neutral` is plain card. Stick to one `primary` CTA per page. |
| loading | boolean | When true, render a skeleton card placeholder. |
Skeleton
Pass loading and the component renders a shape-matched <Skeleton /> in its own place — same box, so nothing reflows when the data lands. Below is the same story with loading={true}.
<CTASection loading={isPending} />Accessibility
Every story for this component is rendered headlessly and checked with axe-core (wcag2aa, wcag22aa, best-practice, ACT) on every PR. That gate has no continue-on-error, so what ships has zero known violations.
What follows is what static analysis can see. Axe cannot press a key and never sees an overlay open, so the operable-without-a-mouse claim lives in Behavior instead, where the keyboard path is replayed step by step.
- Focus + keyboard behaviour
- Native element semantics — no interaction layer to get wrong.
- Focus ring (WCAG 2.2 SC 2.4.13)
- Not focusable — no focus indicator required.
- Reduced motion
- No animation to gate.
- ARIA in the source
- None — semantics come from the element or the Base UI primitive rather than hand-written ARIA.

R-rule compliance
Every primitive in @interlace/ui models to the portable 26-rule floor enforced by the componentApi ESLint preset. The cells below pin exactly where each rule applies in this file.
| Rule | Concept | Where |
|---|---|---|
| R4 | Extends native el | `React.ComponentProps<'section'>` + CTASection props |
| R6 | data-slot on root | `data-slot="cta-section"` |
| R7 | className merged + ...rest | `cn(BASE, className)` + `{...props}` |
| R10 | Composition seam (slots) | `title` / `description` / `actions` ReactNode props |
| R14 | Declares min viewport | `data-min-viewport={String(MIN_VIEWPORT)}` + exported const |
| R18 | Tailwind only | Zero inline `style`; utility classes only |
| R19 | Tokens only | `bg-primary-subtle` / `text-foreground` / spacing scale |
| R20 | AA contrast | accent foreground on tinted surface |
| R25 | Server component | No hooks |
| R26 | A11y | `<section>` with `aria-labelledby` when title is text |
Minimum viewport
This primitive declares MIN_VIEWPORT = 320 CSS px (DESIGN_PRINCIPLES #14). When mounted in a container narrower than this, the preflight contract draws a dev-mode outline so the regression is visible during local development.
<body data-interlace-dev>...</body>
Add the data-interlace-dev attribute to the body in development builds only — preflight then outlines any primitive whose container is below its declared data-min-viewport.
