Use Avatar to build consistent, accessible interfaces aligned with the shared design system.

Installation

1. Copy the source code:

• Source in this monorepo: packages/ui/src/components/avatar.tsx
• Place in your project: components/ui/avatar.tsx
• Required utility: lib/utils.ts (for cn helper)

2. Update the import paths to match your project structure.

Usage

import { Avatar } from "@hoag/ui/components/avatar";
 
export default function Demo() {
  return (
    <Avatar>
      <AvatarImage src="https://i.pravatar.cc/80?img=5" alt="Linh Nguyen" />
      <AvatarFallback>LN</AvatarFallback>
    </Avatar>
  );
}

Import

import {
  Avatar,
  AvatarFallback,
  AvatarImage,
} from "@hoag/ui/components/avatar";

Basic Example

import { Avatar } from "@hoag/ui/components/avatar";
 
export function AvatarBasicExample() {
  return (
    <Avatar>
      <AvatarImage src="https://i.pravatar.cc/80?img=5" alt="Linh Nguyen" />
      <AvatarFallback>LN</AvatarFallback>

Composition Pattern

import { Avatar } from "@hoag/ui/components/avatar";
 
export function AvatarSection() {

      <Avatar>
        <AvatarImage src="https://i.pravatar.cc/80?img=12" alt="Hoang Vu" />
        <AvatarFallback>HV</AvatarFallback>
      </Avatar>
      <div>
        <p className="text-sm font-medium">Hoang Vu</p>

      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

Accessibility Checklist

• Verify semantic roles and ARIA attributes for interactive behavior.
• Keep keyboard navigation and focus visibility consistent in all states.
• Ensure color contrast meets accessibility requirements in light and dark themes.
• Provide screen reader context for dynamic state or content changes.

Testing Checklist

• Add render tests for default and key variant states.
• Add interaction tests for callbacks and state transitions.
• Add visual regression checks for responsive and theme variations.
• Cover edge states such as loading, empty, disabled, and error.

Production Tips

• Wrap component logic in feature-level abstractions for domain behavior.
• Keep visual variants centralized to avoid style drift across screens.
• Reuse a single import path strategy for simpler refactors.
• Mirror documented states in Storybook and QA checklists.

Named Exports

• Avatar
• AvatarFallback
