Item vs Field

If you only need to display content such as a title, description, and actions, use Item.

Variant

Use the variant prop to change the visual style of the item.

Size

Use the size prop to change the size of the item. Available sizes are default, sm, and xs.

Examples

Icon

Use ItemMedia with variant="icon" to display an icon.

Avatar

You can use ItemMedia with variant="avatar" to display an avatar.

Image

Use ItemMedia with variant="image" to display an image.

Group

Use ItemGroup to group related items together.

Use ItemHeader to add a header above the item content.

Use the asChild prop to render the item as a link. The hover and focus states will be applied to the anchor element.

    <ItemMedia variant="icon">
      <HomeIcon />
    </ItemMedia>
    <ItemContent>
