Tree

A hierarchical tree view for file explorers and nested navigation. Data-driven and controlled: pass a nested data array and the Tree renders recursively. A node with children is a folder; a leaf fires onSelect. Full keyboard support (↑/↓ move, →/←expand/collapse, Enter select).

File explorer

Click a folder to expand/collapse, a file to select. State is fully controlled — selectedId/onSelect andexpandedIds (here seeded withdefaultExpandedIds). README.md is disabled.

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`data`	`TreeNode[]`	`—`	Nested { id, label, icon?, disabled?, children? }.
`expandedIds`	`string[]`	`—`	Controlled expanded node ids. Omit for uncontrolled.
`defaultExpandedIds`	`string[]`	`[]`	Initially expanded ids when uncontrolled.
`onExpandedChange`	`(ids: string[]) => void`	`—`	Fires when a folder is expanded/collapsed.
`selectedId`	`string \| null`	`—`	Controlled selected node id.
`defaultSelectedId`	`string \| null`	`null`	Initial selection when uncontrolled.
`onSelect`	`(id: string) => void`	`—`	Fires with the node id (not an event).

Data-driven, not composed. Tree takes a nested array, not nested children — so AI cannot mis-nest markup, and expansion/selection stay controlled state instead of leaking into the DOM.

AI Context

Common AI mistakes

Rendering a nested <ul> tree by hand with manual expand state→ Pass a nested `data` array to <Tree> and control expandedIds/selectedId
onSelect={(e) => ...}→ onSelect={(id) => setSelected(id)}
Mutating the data array to expand/collapse→ Track expandedIds in state (or use defaultExpandedIds)
Using DropdownMenu submenus for a file tree→ Use <Tree> for file explorers / nested nav

Quick examples

File explorer, controlled selection

const [sel, setSel] = useState<string | null>("src/a.ts");

<Tree
  data={[
    { id: "src", label: "src", children: [
      { id: "src/a.ts", label: "a.ts" },
      { id: "src/b", label: "b", children: [
        { id: "src/b/c.ts", label: "c.ts" },
      ]},
    ]},
    { id: "README.md", label: "README.md" },
  ]}
  selectedId={sel}
  onSelect={setSel}
  defaultExpandedIds={["src"]}
/>

Fully controlled expansion

const [open, setOpen] = useState<string[]>(["root"]);

<Tree data={tree} expandedIds={open} onExpandedChange={setOpen} />
