Button group
Persisted Choice
A button group whose choice is honestly submitted with the form: a hidden input sits alongside, and the value is mirrored on the root as data-value.
React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.
What you can change
- the set of options through options
- the initial value through defaultValue
- the form field name through name and the accessible group name through label
A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ
- How do I add Persisted Choice with Cursor or Claude Code?
- Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
- What does Persisted Choice depend on?
- No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
- What can I change in Persisted Choice?
- Adapt: the set of options through options; the initial value through defaultValue; the form field name through name and the accessible group name through label. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-buttongroup-057-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the hidden input next to the buttons: aria-pressed buttons submit nothing on their own; data-value on the root — tests and styles can read it without reaching into React state.
- Is Persisted Choice free?
- Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes
The component is self-contained: one file, no dependencies, its own palette in the --vibeui-buttongroup-057-* variables. It is a client component: useState holds the selected value. Buttons with aria-pressed submit nothing on their own, so an input[type=hidden] with the same value lies inside the group — a form collects it through FormData exactly like an ordinary field, and the server does not have to know anything about the buttons. The value is duplicated on the root by the data-value attribute: it is visible in the inspector and tests and styles can be written against it without looking into React state. The line under the group shows the pair that will travel to the server — that is a way to catch a drift between the look and the data. The track is a role="toolbar" with a roving tabindex: Tab stops on the group once, and the value is switched with the arrows.
