When to use #

Use it for

  • Showing how a total splits across two or three nested levels, such as region, product and plan.
  • The part-to-whole story matters more than exact values.

Skip it when

  • There are more than three levels; a treemap reads more easily.
  • Readers need to compare close values; use bars.

Installation #

terminal
pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @caliper/sunburst

Accessibility #

It exposes group and status semantics, with aria-label, aria-busy, aria-hidden and aria-current kept in step with state. Changes that matter are announced through a live region.

No custom key handling; Tab and the native activation keys do the work.

Motion #

It declares no animation in its component source. Any transition comes from its stylesheet, which uses the duration tokens that collapse to instant under prefers-reduced-motion.
