React floating action button (FAB).

Exports <FloatingActionButton> — fixed-position circular button (or anchor when href is set) with an icon slot, native-title tooltip, and four corner-anchoring positions.

Quick Start

import { FloatingActionButton } from '@molecule/app-floating-action-button-react'
import { getClassMap } from '@molecule/app-ui'
import { Icon } from '@molecule/app-ui-react'

function CreateFab() {
  return (
    <FloatingActionButton
      icon={<Icon name="plus" size={24} />}
      label="Create new item"
      position="bottom-right"
      onClick={() => setCreateOpen(true)}
    />
  )
}

Interfaces

`FloatingActionButtonProps`

Props for {@link FloatingActionButton}.

interface FloatingActionButtonProps {
  /** Icon rendered inside the FAB. */
  icon: ReactNode
  /** Accessible label / tooltip text (usually `t('...')`). */
  label: string
  /** Click handler (mutually exclusive with `href`). */
  onClick?: () => void
  /** Navigation target (mutually exclusive with `onClick`). */
  href?: string
  /** Screen corner for anchoring. Defaults to `'bottom-right'`. */
  position?: 'bottom-right' | 'bottom-left' | 'top-right' | 'top-left'
  /** Visual size. */
  size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'
  /** Whether to show the label on hover. Defaults to true. */
  showTooltip?: boolean
  /** Extra classes. */
  className?: string
}

Functions

`FloatingActionButton(props)`

Fixed-position circular action button. Renders either an anchor (when href is set) or a button (when onClick is set). Positioning is inline-style so the component works without extra CSS setup, and it ships with a visible default surface (primary gradient + soft elevation, via the gradientPrimary/shadowLifted ClassMap tokens) so an out-of-the-box FAB is prominent in both light and dark themes. Pass className to override the surface — caller classes are resolved last by cm.cn (tailwind-merge).

function FloatingActionButton({
  icon,
  label,
  onClick,
  href,
  position = 'bottom-right',
  size = 'md',
  showTooltip = true,
  className,
}: FloatingActionButtonProps): JSX.Element

The FAB ships with a visible default surface — a primary gradient plus soft elevation (the gradientPrimary + shadowLifted ClassMap tokens, which also supply a contrasting on-primary icon color) — so an out-of-the-box FAB is prominent in both light and dark themes with no extra styling. Pass className to override it (e.g. cm.surface); caller classes are merged last (tailwind-merge) so they win over the default.

label doubles as an i18n key: it is resolved through t(label, {}, { defaultValue: label }), so passing a translation key localizes the aria-label / tooltip, and plain English strings still work as their own fallback. The tooltip is the native title attribute (no styled tooltip component).

href and onClick are mutually exclusive — when href is set an <a> renders and onClick is ignored.
