function Demo() {
  return (
    <Group position="center">
      <HoverCard shadow="md" openDelay={1000}>
        <HoverCard.Target>
          <Button>1000ms open delay</Button>
        </HoverCard.Target>
        <HoverCard.Dropdown>
          <Text size="sm">Opened with 1000ms delay</Text>
        </HoverCard.Dropdown>
      </HoverCard>

      <HoverCard shadow="md" closeDelay={1000}>
        <HoverCard.Target>
          <Button>1000ms close delay</Button>
        </HoverCard.Target>
        <HoverCard.Dropdown>
          <Text size="sm">Will close with 1000ms delay</Text>
        </HoverCard.Dropdown>
      </HoverCard>
    </Group>
  );
}

With interactive elements

HoverCard is displayed only when mouse is over target element or dropdown, you can use anchors and buttons within dropdowns, using inputs is not recommended:

import { HoverCard, Avatar, Text, Group, Anchor, Stack } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <Group position="center">
      <HoverCard width={320} shadow="md" withArrow openDelay={200} closeDelay={400}>
        <HoverCard.Target>
          <Avatar src="https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/79146003?s=200&v=4" radius="xl" />
        </HoverCard.Target>
        <HoverCard.Dropdown>
          <Group>
            <Avatar src="https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/79146003?s=200&v=4" radius="xl" />
            <Stack spacing={5}>
              <Text size="sm" weight={700} sx={{ lineHeight: 1 }}>
                Mantine
              </Text>
              <Anchor
                href="https://twitter.com/mantinedev"
                color="dimmed"
                size="xs"
                sx={{ lineHeight: 1 }}
              >
                @mantinedev
              </Anchor>
            </Stack>
          </Group>

          <Text size="sm" mt="md">
            Customizable React components and hooks library with focus on usability, accessibility
            and developer experience
          </Text>

          <Group mt="md" spacing="xl">
            <Text size="sm">
              <b>0</b> Following
            </Text>
            <Text size="sm">
              <b>1,174</b> Followers
            </Text>
          </Group>
        </HoverCard.Dropdown>
      </HoverCard>
    </Group>
  );
}

HoverCard.Target requires an element or a component as a single child – strings, fragments, numbers and multiple elements/components are not supported and will throw error. Custom components must provide a prop to get root element ref, all Mantine components support ref out of the box.

import { HoverCard, Badge } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  return (
    <>
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <button>Native button – ok</button>
      </HoverCard.Target>

      {/* OK */}
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <Badge>Mantine component – ok</Badge>
      </HoverCard.Target>

      {/* String, NOT OK – will throw error */}
      <HoverCard.Target>Raw string</HoverCard.Target>

      {/* Number, NOT OK – will throw error */}
      <HoverCard.Target>{2}</HoverCard.Target>

      {/* Fragment, NOT OK – will throw error */}
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <>Fragment, NOT OK, will throw error</>
      </HoverCard.Target>

      {/* Multiple nodes, NOT OK – will throw error */}
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <div>More that one node</div>
        <div>NOT OK, will throw error</div>
      </HoverCard.Target>
    </>
  );
}

Required ref prop

Custom components that are rendered inside HoverCard.Target are required to support ref prop:

// Example of code that WILL NOT WORK
import { HoverCard } from '@mantine/core';

function MyComponent() {
  return <div>My component</div>;
}

// This will not work – MyComponent does not support ref
function Demo() {
  return (
    <HoverCard>
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <MyComponent />
      </HoverCard.Target>
    </HoverCard>
  );
}

Use forwardRef function to forward ref to root element:

// Example of code that will work
import { forwardRef } from 'react';
import { HoverCard } from '@mantine/core';

const MyComponent = forwardRef((props, ref) => (
  <div ref={ref} {...props}>
    My component
  </div>
));

// Works correctly – ref is forwarded
function Demo() {
  return (
    <HoverCard>
      <HoverCard.Target>
        <MyComponent />
      </HoverCard.Target>
    </HoverCard>
  );
}

Accessibility

HoverCard is ignored by screen readers and cannot be activated with keyboard, use it to display only additional information that is not required to understand the context.
