Now Playing Sheet

A persistent mini player bar at the bottom; tap it and the artwork scales up as a shared element while the whole layer springs open into a full-screen now-playing page, dismissed by a downward drag whose gesture velocity decides the outcome.

Or, once registries are configured in components.json, install it as @webberui/now-playing-sheet.

Usage

NowPlayingSheet is itself a positioning container: pass your app content in as children (it gets a strip of padding covered by the mini bar pinned to the bottom), and the mini bar and the full-screen now-playing page share the same track.

import { NowPlayingSheet } from "@/components/ui/now-playing-sheet";

<div className="relative h-[560px] w-full max-w-sm overflow-hidden rounded-3xl">
  <NowPlayingSheet
    className="size-full"
    track={{
      title: "Neon Drift",
      artist: "Night Current",
      album: "Midnight Loop",
      artwork: <img src="/cover.jpg" alt="" />,
      duration: 214,
    }}
    defaultPlaying
    onNext={() => {}}
    onPrevious={() => {}}
  >
    {/* your app content */}
  </NowPlayingSheet>
</div>;

Expansion, playback, and progress all support controlled and uncontrolled modes: pass open, playing, or progress to take control, otherwise the component manages them internally. When uncontrolled and playing, progress advances automatically based on track.duration.

`NowPlayingTrack`

Field	Type	Description
`title`	`string`	Track title
`artist`	`string`	Performer
`album`	`string`	Album / context title (shown at the top of the expanded page)
`artwork`	`React.ReactNode`	Artwork content (an `<img>`, a gradient `<div>`, or any node); when omitted, a neutral gradient placeholder is shown
`duration`	`number`	Total track length (seconds), used for the time labels and automatic advancing

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`track`	`NowPlayingTrack`	—	Data for the currently playing track
`children`	`React.ReactNode`	—	App content above the mini bar (a scrollable area)
`open`	`boolean`	—	Controlled expanded state
`defaultOpen`	`boolean`	`false`	Uncontrolled initial expanded state
`onOpenChange`	`(open: boolean) => void`	—	Expanded-state change callback
`playing`	`boolean`	—	Controlled playing state
`defaultPlaying`	`boolean`	`false`	Uncontrolled initial playing state
`onPlayingChange`	`(playing: boolean) => void`	—	Playing-state change callback
`progress`	`number`	—	Controlled playback progress (0–1); providing it disables automatic advancing
`onProgressChange`	`(progress: number) => void`	—	Progress change callback
`onPrevious`	`() => void`	—	Tapping "previous"
`onNext`	`() => void`	—	Tapping "next"
`className`	`string`	—	Appended to the outermost stage container (set size / radius / background)

How it works

Shared element scale-up: the artwork in the mini bar and on the now-playing page share one layoutId, so Motion morphs them seamlessly when expanding and collapsing; the whole player bar shares another layoutId and springs from the bottom rectangle into the full-screen layer.
Gesture dismissal: the full-screen layer can be dragged downward; on release, an offset over 120px or a velocity over 600px/s collapses it, otherwise it springs back into place.
Progress bar: can be clicked, dragged, or adjusted with arrow keys / Home / End (5 seconds or 2% per step).
Automatic advancing: when uncontrolled and playing, progress advances every 250ms based on track.duration and stops at the end; the timer is cleared on unmount and on state changes.

Accessibility

The artwork area of the mini bar is an expand button with aria-expanded, and the full-screen layer is a role="dialog" labelled by the track title via aria-labelledby.
While expanded, Escape collapses it and focus moves into the now-playing page; focus returns to the mini bar after collapsing. While expanded, the mini bar gets inert to leave the focus order.
The progress bar is a role="slider" with aria-valuenow and aria-valuetext; the play/pause and shuffle/repeat buttons all have aria-label and aria-pressed.
With "reduce motion" enabled, the morph offsets and dragging are disabled in favor of a brief fade in / fade out.
