Import components

import {
  Popover,
  PopoverTrigger,
  PopoverContent,
  PopoverHeader,
  PopoverBody,
  PopoverFooter,
  PopoverArrow,
  PopoverCloseButton,
} from "@chakra-ui/react"

Basic Usage

When using this component, ensure the children passed to PopoverTrigger is focusable, user can tab to it using their keyboard, and it can take a ref. It is critical for accessiblity.

A11y: When the Popover opens, focus is sent to the PopoverContent. When it closes, focus is returned to the trigger.

<Popover>
  <PopoverTrigger>
    <Button>Trigger</Button>
  </PopoverTrigger>
  <PopoverContent>
    <PopoverArrow />
    <PopoverCloseButton />
    <PopoverHeader>Confirmation!</PopoverHeader>
    <PopoverBody>Are you sure you want to have that milkshake?</PopoverBody>
  </PopoverContent>
</Popover>

By default, the Popover doesn't render in a Portal. To make them display in a portal, pass the usePortal prop.

You might need to Inspect Element to see this in action. Notice the PopoverContent is rendered as a child of <body>

<Popover usePortal>
  <PopoverTrigger>
    <Button>Trigger</Button>
  </PopoverTrigger>
  <PopoverContent>
    <PopoverArrow />
    <PopoverHeader>Header</PopoverHeader>
    <PopoverCloseButton />
    <PopoverBody>
      <Button colorScheme="blue">Button</Button>
    </PopoverBody>
    <PopoverFooter>This is the footer</PopoverFooter>
  </PopoverContent>
</Popover>
