Examples

Basic Two-Handle Range Slider

const [priceRange, setPriceRange] = useState([25, 75]);

<MultiSliderPro
  values={priceRange}
  onChange={setPriceRange}
  min={0}
  max={100}
  showLabels
  showValueLabels
  formatLabel={(value) => `$${value}`}
  aria-label="Price range selector"
/>

Three-Handle Slider with Custom Styling

const [values, setValues] = useState([20, 50, 80]);

<MultiSliderPro
  values={values}
  onChange={setValues}
  rangeColor="bg-red-500"
  handleColor="bg-red-500"
  trackHeight="h-2"
  handleSize="w-6 h-6"
  showValueLabels
/>

Slider with Marks

const marks = [
  { value: 0, label: 'Min' },
  { value: 25, label: '25%' },
  { value: 50, label: 'Mid' },
  { value: 75, label: '75%' },
  { value: 100, label: 'Max' }
];

<MultiSliderPro
  values={[30, 70]}
  marks={marks}
  showLabels
  step={5}
/>

Controlled vs Uncontrolled

// Controlled (recommended)
const [values, setValues] = useState([20, 80]);
<MultiSliderPro values={values} onChange={setValues} />

// With commit handler for API calls
<MultiSliderPro
  values={values}
  onChange={setValues} // Real-time updates
  onChangeCommitted={(finalValues) => {
    // Call API when user finishes dragging
    updateFilters(finalValues);
  }}
/>

Keyboard Controls

The component follows WAI-ARIA guidelines:

• Each handle has role="slider"

• Focus management

<MultiSliderPro
  aria-label="Temperature range"
  aria-labelledby="temp-label"
  values={[18, 24]}
