Typing Indicator

Three bouncing dots with a screen-reader status label.

TypingIndicator ships with a full API table, a copyable example, and accessibility notes.

tsx
Assistant is typing

Installation

Install the package once, then import TypingIndicator from its direct entry point or from the root.

bash
pnpm add @agent-ui/react
tsx
import { TypingIndicator } from "@agent-ui/react/typing-indicator";

Tailwind CSS v4 users: add @source "../node_modules/@agent-ui/react/src" to the global stylesheet so the library utilities are generated.

Usage

The example below is the same code that renders the preview. Copy it, swap in your own handlers, and ship.

tsx
import { TypingIndicator } from "@agent-ui/react";
 
<TypingIndicator />
