- Markdown: https://uiarc.dev/components/theme-switch-rise/markdown
- Registry item: https://uiarc.dev/r/theme-switch-rise.json
- Source file: `registry/components/theme-switch/theme-switch.tsx`
- Dependencies: motion, lucide-react
- Keywords: theme, appearance, motion, react theme switch, rise theme transition, dark mode toggle, icon theme toggle, view transition theme

## When to use

- Product chrome and dashboards where the theme change should be calm.
- Icon-only toggles in a top bar, as the library's own header uses it.

## When not to use

- Use theme-switch-eclipse for a dramatic change on a showcase page.
- Use user-menu when theme belongs with account settings.

## Installation

### CLI

Run one of these in a project set up with `shadcn init`:

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add @uiarc/theme-switch-rise
pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @uiarc/theme-switch-rise
yarn dlx shadcn@latest add @uiarc/theme-switch-rise
bunx --bun shadcn@latest add @uiarc/theme-switch-rise
```

The `@uiarc` name needs `"registries": { "@uiarc": "https://uiarc.dev/r/{name}.json" }` in `components.json`. Without it, use the full URL:

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://uiarc.dev/r/theme-switch-rise.json
```

### Manual

1. Install the dependencies:

```bash
npm install motion lucide-react
```

2. Copy the source into your project. Main file: `registry/components/theme-switch/theme-switch.tsx`

   The source is in the registry item: https://uiarc.dev/r/theme-switch-rise.json

3. Arc imports use the `@/` alias for `registry/` and `lib/`. Keep the same folders or update the import paths.

## Usage

```tsx
import { ThemeSwitch } from "@/registry/components/theme-switch/theme-switch";

<ThemeSwitch
  theme={theme}
  variant="rise"
  iconOnly
  onThemeChange={(next, variant, trigger) => runThemeTransition(next, variant, trigger)}
/>
```

## API reference

### ThemeSwitch

A secondary Button that swaps a sun and moon icon and reports the next theme. The page transition itself is yours to run.

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `theme` (required) | `"light" \| "dark"` | – | The current theme. Drives the icon and aria-pressed. |
| `onThemeChange` (required) | `(next: Theme, variant: ThemeSwitchVariant, trigger: HTMLElement) => void` | – | Called on press with the opposite theme, the variant, and the button, so the page transition can start from it. |
| `variant` | `"reveal" \| "eclipse" \| "split" \| "rise"` | `"reveal"` | Names the page transition and sets the small icon nudge that matches it. |
| `label` | `string` | – | Accessible name. Defaults to "Switch to dark mode" or "Switch to light mode". |
| `iconOnly` | `boolean` | `false` | Hides the "Switch theme" text and renders a 38px square button. |

## Keyboard interactions

| Keys | Action |
| --- | --- |
| Enter / Space | Toggles the theme. |

## Accessibility

- Same button as theme-switch: aria-pressed reflects dark mode and the label names the next theme.
- Keep the rise off for reduced motion and swap the theme directly.

## Motion

- variant="rise": the next appearance rises into place from the bottom; run it in onThemeChange with a view transition.
- The icon lifts 2px in dark mode.
- Reduced motion removes the nudge and swaps the icon with a fade.

## Responsive behavior

- The labelled button fits a desktop top bar; pass iconOnly for a fixed 38px square on narrow headers and mobile.
- Hover styles apply only on hover-capable fine pointers, so touch taps do not leave a stuck hover state.

## Performance

- The button itself is tiny: one icon swap on a spring, and the first theme after hydration applies without animating.
- The page transition is yours; a full-page view transition snapshots the whole document, so keep it short and skip it for reduced motion.

## Notes for AI

- Select with variant="rise". The prop only styles the icon nudge and is passed back to onThemeChange; the page animation is your code.
- The calmest of the four; the library's own top bar uses it with iconOnly.

## Guidance for AI tools

Rise: The next appearance rises into place. Follow the declared prop types and do not invent props. Keep keyboard access, reduced motion support, and both light and dark themes intact when adapting it.
