File Card

AI chats

About

Files an agent writes into a reply, with type, size, generating progress, download and preview.

Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds File Card to your project and fits it to your theme.

Code

How File Card is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

Usage.tsx

"use client"

import * as React from "react"
import { FileCard } from "@/components/ui/file-card"

const CSV = `region,q2_revenue,q3_revenue,change
North America,4.81,5.32,+10.6%
Europe,3.12,3.29,+5.4%
Asia Pacific,2.07,2.61,+26.1%
Latin America,0.64,0.71,+10.9%`

const reducedMotion = () => window.matchMedia("(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)").matches

const TICK_MS = 100

/** The finished reply holds first, so the cover shows it; then the three files write again. */
const HOLD_MS = 4200

const LOOP_MS = HOLD_MS + 4600

const PDF = { from: 300, done: 2700 }

const DECK = { from: 600, done: 4000 }

const FIT_CSS = "html,body{overflow:hidden}[data-fit-small] [data-fit-hide]{display:none!important}"

/**
 * 21st shows a demo in a small frame: about 674 by 421 on a component page, 358 by 224 on a
 * phone and 245 by 139 on a profile card. A demo taller than its frame gets scrollbars, which
 * render white on dark pages. FitFrame fills the frame exactly instead.
 *
 * - "scale": the content shrinks until it fits, centered. For visuals such as orbs.
 * - "crop": the content stays at full size from the top and fades out at the bottom. For text
 *   that streams in, where a changing scale would make the page breathe.
 *
 * `minWidth` lays out a wide demo (a table, a two column panel) at that width and scales it down
 * to the frame, instead of letting it collapse to a narrow layout. The frame centers it, so it
 * shrinks evenly on both sides.
 *
 * Anything marked `data-fit-hide` (state buttons, the chatcn.dev line) drops out in frames
 * shorter than `hideBelow`, so a profile card shows the visual alone.
