Item

PreviousNext

Item is a versatile component for displaying structured content in lists, grids, or standalone layouts.

The Item component provides a flexible structure for displaying content with consistent spacing, alignment, and visual hierarchy. It presents information with optional media (icons, images, avatars), titles, descriptions, and action elements through composable subcomponents.

Common use cases include notification lists, activity feeds, file browsers, contact lists, product catalogs, or any interface that presents structured information repeatedly. The component supports rendering as different elements via the asChild prop for compatibility with links, buttons, or custom interactive components while maintaining consistent styling.
