Shadcn Button Group: Segmented Controls & Toggles
Shadcn Button Group is a set of related buttons grouped together for segmented selection (like tabs) or toolbar-style actions. It follows Radix UI composition conventions and Base UI-style semantics, with full compatibility for Shadcn Create styling.
It displays buttons side-by-side or vertically, often with one selected state, used for view toggles, filtering, or tool selection without opening a dropdown.
ReUI lists button-group components inside dashboards, toolbars, and filter headers so you evaluate sizing, selection states, and icon placement next to real content. The sections below explain what the component is, why teams use it, key features, and integration guidance.
What is Shadcn Button Group?
A button group is a row or column of related buttons, often used as a segmented control where clicking one button selects it and deselects others. Shadcn Button Group composes multiple Shadcn Button instances with shared state management.
Components here show list/grid view toggles, time period selectors (Day / Week / Month), sorting options (Newest / Popular), and toolbar icon buttons. They help you choose layout, decide on icons, and manage focus states.
Why Use Shadcn Button Group?
Segmented controls save space compared to dropdowns and keep all options visible. They're essential in dashboards for view toggles, filters, and tool selection where users need quick access without opening a menu.
