Preview

Hero — live renderblocks-hero--default

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.

Via shadcn URL
npx shadcn@latest add https://ds.interlace.tools/r/hero.json
With the @interlace alias
npx shadcn@latest add @interlace/hero

History

This component is at v1.1.0, 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.

Import

2 named exports — pull the parts you need.

Public API
import { Hero, MIN_VIEWPORT } from '@/components/ui/patterns/hero';

Anatomy

Extracted from the primitive's JSDoc header. The source is the only documentation that can't drift.

Hero                             (section — data-min-viewport=320)
    ├─ Stack                       (text column)
    │   ├─ {eyebrow}               (Typography variant=ui-sm tone=primary)
    │   ├─ Typography variant=h1   (headline)
    │   ├─ Typography variant=long (subhead, max-w-prose)
    │   └─ {actions}               (Cluster of Buttons — primary first)
    └─ {media}                     (optional right-column visual slot)

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.

HeroProps

Also accepts every <section> attribute.

PropTypeDescription
eyebrowReact.ReactNodeSmall accent line above the headline — e.g. "v2.0 · February 2026".
headline*React.ReactNodeBig display headline.
bodyReact.ReactNodeSupporting paragraph — max-w-prose by default.
actionsReact.ReactNodeCTA cluster — typically a primary Button and a secondary link/Button.
mediaReact.ReactNodeOptional right-column visual — image, video, code window, decorative SVG.

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
  • aria-hidden

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.

RuleConceptWhere
R4Extends native <section>`React.ComponentProps<'section'> & HeroProps`
R6data-slot on root`data-slot="hero"`
R10Composition seams`eyebrow` + `actions` + `media` props
R14Declares min viewport`data-min-viewport={String(MIN_VIEWPORT)}` + exported const
R19Tokens onlyspacing/typography from primitives
R25Server componentNo hooks → no `'use client'`
R26A11y landmark`<section aria-labelledby>` is the rendered element

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.

Opt-in to the dev-mode warning
<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.
