    Code block

    Code with a filename bar and Copy, in a focusable scroll box that shades its edges.

    0.29% of the 2,073 sites in The UI Index have a code block (6 sites).

    Used in UI Pro: Hero, Feature tabs

    astro.config.mjs
    // astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';

export default defineConfig({
  site: 'https://northwind.example',
  trailingSlash: 'always',
});
    Terminal
    npx shadcn@latest add https://www.themes.dev/ui/r/code-block.json

    Both previews render the same markup; the HTML tab below is that markup without a framework.

    Install

    React
    npx shadcn@latest add https://www.themes.dev/ui/r/code-block.json
    Astro
    npx shadcn@latest add https://www.themes.dev/ui/r/astro/code-block.json

    Or copy the files below into your project. They need clsx, tailwind-merge, and the themes.dev UI theme. The HTML needs only the compiled CSS and the script.

    // Code block copy for Astro, HTML and React: [data-code-copy] copies its block's code and says "Copied" for a
// moment (also announced: the button's label changes, and a polite live region in the bar repeats it).
