FAQ

What's this built on?

@radix-ui/react-dialog for accessibility, lucide-react for the close icon. Identical primitive stack to shadcn/ui: Better Design re-skins it for the Apple aesthetic.

Is it free?

Yes. MIT-licensed shadcn-compatible registry item. Install via npx shadcn@latest add: source lands in your components/ui folder.

Can I change the slide direction?

Pass side="top" | "right" | "bottom" | "left" on SheetContent. Apple modals usually slide from the bottom on iOS and right on macOS: pick per platform-feel.

How is this different from Apple's actual UIKit/SwiftUI sheets?

Inspired-by, not lifted. Better Design ships the web-equivalent visual signature on Radix Dialog. Apple's real sheets are native iOS/macOS components with system-level animations and gesture handling that don't exist in browsers.
