Add TooltipProvider

Wrap your editor with TooltipProvider. Here's an example:

import { cn } from '@udecode/cn';
 
import { siteConfig } from '@/config/site';
import { fontSans } from '@/lib/fonts';
import { TooltipProvider } from '@/components/plate-ui/tooltip';
import { SiteHeader } from '@/components/site/site-header';
import { TailwindIndicator } from '@/components/site/tailwind-indicator';
import { ThemeProvider } from '@/components/site/theme-provider';
 
import '@/styles/globals.css';
 
import { Metadata, Viewport } from 'next';
 
export const metadata: Metadata = {
  title: {
    default: siteConfig.name,
    template: `%s - ${siteConfig.name}`,
  },
  description: siteConfig.description,
  icons: {
    icon: '/favicon.ico',
    shortcut: '/favicon-16x16.png',
    apple: '/apple-touch-icon.png',
  },
};
 
export const viewport: Viewport = {
  themeColor: [
    { media: '(prefers-color-scheme: light)', color: 'white' },
    { media: '(prefers-color-scheme: dark)', color: 'black' },
  ],
};
 
interface RootLayoutProps {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}
 
export default function RootLayout({ children }: RootLayoutProps) {
  return (
    <>
      <html lang="en" suppressHydrationWarning>
        <head />
        <body
          className={cn(
            'min-h-screen bg-background font-sans antialiased',
            '[&_.slate-selected]:!bg-primary/20 [&_.slate-selection-area]:border [&_.slate-selection-area]:border-primary [&_.slate-selection-area]:bg-primary/10',
            fontSans.variable
          )}
          suppressHydrationWarning
        >
          <ThemeProvider attribute="class" defaultTheme="light">
            <TooltipProvider

              delayDuration={500}
              skipDelayDuration={0}
            >
              <div className="relative flex min-h-screen flex-col">

              <TailwindIndicator />
            </TooltipProvider>
          </ThemeProvider>
        </body>
      </html>
    </>
  );
}

We use icons from Lucide. You can use any icon library you want.

Add components

You can now start adding components to your project.

npx @udecode/plate-ui@latest add button

The command above will add the Button component to your project. You can then import it like this:

import { Button } from '@/components/plate-ui/button';
 
export default function Home() {
  return (
    <div>
      <Button>Click me</Button>
    </div>
  );
}

Register components

To add the components to your plugins, see Plugin Components.
